Several years ago I was in desperate need of finding a place to live. A friend of mind asked her ex-husband if he had any houses for rent. I was in luck; he had one available.
When I found out the address of this house I was very leery but, had no choice. The address was 666 Eisenbrown Street, in Reading,Pa. My daughter (about two months old at the time) and I quickly settled into the home and did not think no more about the address. From time to time people would joke about the address.
As time went on I had started noticing a few minor but weird things; like horse flies in the dead of winter,the sound of running water in the bath tub when no one was upstairs, the sound of someone going up or down the stairs, again nothing. But, one evening and this I will never forget, (please keep in mind that I never believed in ghosts), I had just laid my daughter on the couch and I had tucked the blanket, covering her under the cushions. I sat next to her and my husband was sitting on the love seat.
We were talking about the television show that was on and all of a sudden the blanket that had covered my daughter flew up in the air and dropped to the floor and no sooner than that had happened my daughter went flying off the couch across the room and hit the television and dropped to the floor.
My husband and I looked at each other with our mouths open for a couple of seconds. We both could not believe what had just happened. My daughter just laid on the floor as if someone had picked her up and gently placed her on the floor, she was not even crying.
After the initial shock I got mad and called what ever it was out. My actual words were; “You are that weak that you have to mess with and innocent child, now mess with me. My God is much stronger then you and can not touch me and you will not touch my child ever again!”
Ever since then it would just destroy my house. I would come home from work and find that the pictures on the walls had been shattered into tiny pieces and objects on the tables had been thrown to the floor. Needless to say I did not stay there much longer after that.
Some years later I was told that the house caught on fire on the roof but never caused any damage, but the fire skipped the adjoining house and burned down a vacant house in which an elderly women had lived, but lived in a nursing home during the fire. She had a nephew who would come and check on the house every so often.
This story my sound unbelievable but trust me it really happened. Now I do believe in ghost and that anything is possible. My daughter is now thirteen years old and we are doing just fine in our current home.

Katie,
You need to pray, you need to get a priest, you need stuff througout your house and your grandmothers house representing god, the saint, crossed, blessed salt. I had a similar situation with my family and to this day and horrified, and cannot sleep alone . You need to believe in god, wear blessed crosses, and get bibles, read them daily . I hope things get better, I’m praying for you and your family . x
Hi Katie,
I am so sorry your brother died.
Some possible explanations of what is happening:
Your grandmother: you did not say how old she is, but as people age they get closer to the higher realms (heaven) in their energy, and they can start to see things that other people don’t, so your grandmother’s experience might be more related to her own life, rather than anything happening to your brother. You don’t say she had any premonitions about him, which I would have said would be likely if she was seeing things because something was going to happen to someone in your family. And your brother might have had a premonintion of his own death, or he could have just been kidding around. We all remember things different through hindsight.
Your living brother in grandma’s room: he might have been astral travelling, which is normal for everyone, and healthy. Our spirits leave our body when we sleep and can go all over the place, and checking up on grandma might be one of the places he went to.
The Ring, I think, is a horror movie. How many horror movies do you usually watch? You see, they implant images into our minds that can often come out through our dreams, when we are feeling frightened and overwhelmed by something else that is happening in our lives.
That all being said, it is possible that a nasty entity is bothering your family, and without being quite as dramatic as Anonymous above, I suggest you talk to your grandmother and the rest of the family, about having your homes blessed by a Minister from your local church, just for the sense of security it will bring. That should put a stop to most visitations. If the problems continue after this is done, or people don’t agree, you can contact me via my link on these pages (Victorian Paranormal Connection under Friends) and we can discuss it further.
Love & Peace

Hi Katie,
I know what its like to have lost a brother. My eldest brother died also (a drunk driver caused his death) and I’m so sorry for your loss.
Sometimes, grief manifests itself in many ways. When we lose loved ones, we become more susceptible to the paranormal as we want to see/hear/talk to them again and we start thinking about contacting mediums (even though we may not actually do it) etc. So we put ourselves in a heightened state. We become more aware of our surroundings, and our minds can manifest things that aren’t there.
That is ”Logical Steph!”
The more ‘involved’ side of me wants to say to you that you need to ask Grandma why she touches this red orb? Surround yourself with friends who love you, gain more positive energy in the house. When I feel vulnerable, I imagine my whole home in a glowing warm white or golden light. I imagine the people in my house the same. I imagine myself bathed in the warm light too. Nothing can penetrate the warmth or the light itself.
Ama has a great incantation for Archangel Michael which may help.
i was always intreasted about reading about spirits and i read the stories about everyday. my friend and her mom can see spirits and tell me to stop reading them or something bad could happen to me is this true?
Hi Amanda,
I was someone who grew up reading ghost stories .. that was after they started talking to me from about the age of two.
There is a belief that we attract to us things that we focus a lot of our attention on .. so in a way your mum is right. I doubt she wants you to be haunted, just like my mother didn’t want me to be ..
I do not know how old you are .. but if you are young, say early teens .. put the books away for a few years. They’ll still be there, and you might avoid spooks in the house for a while. I recommended this to my daughter, who is a lot like me, and it helped her.
You can check me out by clicking the Victorian Paranormal Connection like under friends on the right of this webpages .. up the top.
Love & Peace

That really is scary. I wish I could help but I’m far from helping you. Do you know how many scratches your brother got? I heard from a show that three scratches can be demonic. But I am not really sure. And I read the commits above. That also scares me in some ways. But I hope everything goes well for you Katie.
Hello Katie,
My condolences to you and your family. I would just like to say that I am not a expert on these things buy would just advice to your family to bring god closer to you, that means pray pray pray. A house that is religious and free of sins then is more safer. And really do talk to someone about this get real help.
God be with you.
