The Haunted Log Cabin

February 10, 2008

I live in a log cabin in Bell Subdivision in Monticello, Kentucky. I don’t know what year the house was built, but it’s pretty old.

The first time I ever experienced anything was when I was about 10 years old. My mom and I were laying in my bed one night and we were both sound asleep. I woke up because I needed to go to the bathroom. So I sat up in my bed and all of a sudden I heard what sounded like a harmonica playing and it sounded like it was coming from the living room. There was no one else in the house but me and my mom at the time, so needless to say, I was pretty scared.

The next day I talked to one of my mom’s friends and she told me that her kids grandpa had died in my house and that he had died in my bedroom. She also said that he had always played the harmonica for his wife before she died.

A few days later, one of my friends stayed all night with me. She slept in the living room and I slept in my bedroom. I woke up about 3 am to her crying. I mean, she was hysterical. I asked her what was wrong and she told me that she had heard someone walking around in the bathroom and it sounded like someone wearing heavy work boots. Let’s just say that she never stayed all night with me after that.

Then I had another friend stay all night with me about three years ago and she was asleep in my bed and she told me that she woke up to see an old man standing over my bed just staring at her. Talk about creepy.

I’ve also had my mom tell me that she would be at home by herself and she would hear footsteps walking up and down the hallway. I haven’t heard anything for a long time and I hope it stays that way.

    I think it’s creepy because these things don’t happen very often. I hope that you are fine and don’t hear from that ghost

    ghosts arent real, anyone could make a story like that up! i used to believe in them, it was just until my friend made me realize, most of them are actually fake or set ups!

    Hey Casey, I just wanted to tell yea the , They say 3:00 Am is called Dead Time. So maybe he was calling Out for Help, If this is Not a make up Story. But did this ever happen again, since the time?

    Well Casey u said that the old man stands and walks around ur house and that he played the hemonica before his wife died. He is still there because u or ur mom reminds him of his wife and he is making sure that nothing happens to u two or any other ladies that enter the house. So there is no reson to be scared. I used to have that happen to me.

    when I read this story I felt very sad and scared.
    Sometimes if you hear or see things like that they could be signs that he is warning you of a great danger.

    The rumors are around my neighboorhood is that my house is haunted. Well, Its true actually. An old blind man and his two dogs had died in my house. Everynight I usally see two large poodles that are a baige and white color, I’ve seen a person in the corner of my eye before.

    I was with my mom in her bedroom, She was fast asleep and I was wide awake. My mom has a bussiness chair, that makes this weird clanking sound once you sit down on it. And it clanked very loudly 2 nights ago as I was watching TV, ready to go to bed. I turned my head and my TV in my room, turned off then back on again. I noticed by the long blue light coming on after it was completely dark.

    I know I saw something in the corner of my eye, But I didnt dare to turn my head. So I just looked at it with my eyes, I blinked and it was gone. Then after all that, I was hearing bumps in the night. Trust me its very creepy, but intresting. I dont like being in my house alone anymore because of this. I feel safer in the day then at night.
