These hauntings took place in two neighboring houses in Michigan during the 1980s. The family members, including the narrator's father, aunts, and grandmother, claimed to have experienced strange occurrences such as footsteps, apparitions, and unexplained sensations. Some of these encounters were attributed to specific ancestors, including great-great grandmothers and uncles. Despite skepticism from one of the aunts, the experiences were too frequent and too vivid to be dismissed easily. The hauntings were particularly strong in the barn and the basement of the houses. The family members lived in fear of the unknown, but also felt a sense of connection to their ancestors. The police were called in one instance, but they found no evidence of anyone being present in the basement.

Experiences with Haunted Houses and Spiritual Encounters as an Empath: Empaths, with their ability to sense emotions and energies, can encounter spiritual beings in haunted places, adding to their curiosity and interest in the supernatural.
My family's old farmhouse was believed to be haunted, and my great-grandmother had encountered an old man-like spirit who revealed himself as an onion-holding great-grandfather. Empaths, who have the ability to feel and understand emotions beyond human, may also sense spiritual energies or auras. In my experience, I've felt various emotions and energies, making it challenging to distinguish between living beings and spirits. During my college years, I bought a house built in 1910, which was rumored to be haunted. My friend and I felt strange occurrences, and I, as an empath, sensed spiritual energies in the house. Despite the strange experiences, the house was a perfect fit for us. The encounter with the old farmhouse spirit and my belief in the paranormal, combined with my empath abilities, have fueled my curiosity and interest in the supernatural.
Friend's unexplained experiences in a house defy natural causes: Friend heard spectral knocking, laughter, and footsteps in a house with no door, neighbors, or likely sound sources, suggesting paranormal activity
The experiences shared by the speaker and their friend cannot be easily explained by natural causes. The friend's description of hearing someone knock on the door, open it, and walk up the stairs, as well as hearing spectral laughter, defy simple explanations. These events occurred in a house where there was no door, no neighbors, and thick walls that made it unlikely for outside sounds to be heard. Additionally, the stairs needed someone to be on them to make a sound, and the friend was on the other side of the house during these encounters. The unexplained experiences continued, with the group hearing otherworldly laughter and footsteps, even during the day when there were no children around. The speaker's attempt to communicate with the entities using the knock game also resulted in responses. These events suggest the presence of paranormal activity in the house.

The investigation brought closure to the group and provided an explanation for the supernatural occurrences they had been experiencing. The final encounter, where a fan moved on its own and a searing hot feeling was felt, added to the evidence that the house was indeed haunted. Overall, the investigation brought a sense of peace and understanding to the group.
