We had Junior Ghost Hunters visit our library today! It was so much fun to see them become excited with their findings. I can't couch for any validity in their statements. I just know that they did have fun while they were there.
Some of their happenings were:
 |
| They left their ball. |
- Sounds of knocking, tapping, banging, dragging and humming
- Sensations of being tickled, touched, scratched
- Being gently pushed away from the water bubbler. (I told her that would be possible since many of the children became sick from drinking that water all those many years ago. Maybe our Ghostie didn't want her to drink the water and become sick also.)
- Cold spots
- Odd shadows
- Hearing quiet laughing and voices
- One of our Jr. Hunters felt deep sadness and she said she started to cry at one point.
They also took a picture with a camera phone. A green blurry spot appeared in the screen. They asked all sorts of questions, but most importantly, they asked the questions slowly and gave our ghostie time to answer. Sometimes the questions are asked too rapidly without adequate time for listening to any answers that are given.
I tried to hear what they recorded and heard. Sometimes I could hear something on their phone, but the library was very busy at that time on this particular morning and it was difficult to differentiate between all of the noises. At any rate, I am glad that they came in and followed up on their Ghost Hunting adventures. One of the girls has been wanting to come in for quite some time. I'm glad she was finally able to fit our little library into her schedule and get some firsthand hunting experience. I only wish that they were able to come after hours.

After hours, I checked this ball 4 times. Three times inside and then the one time outside when I took the photo thru the window.
ReplyDeleteEach time, however, I kept the ball just out of my sight around the corner of the bookcase. My co-worker laughed at me and asked, "What are you going to do if the ball has moved?" My answer, "Pee my pants." She just laughed at me and said I was real brave.
Three times I said, "Whew, it's still in the same spot." The last time however, my co-worker just HAD to tease me. She walked over to the table and said, "I think it moved." I go running over there and said, "Shut up! It did not!" It didn't. She was just teasing me. She's a snot!
