[quote=Anonymous]We live in a neighborhood that was part of George Washington's property and there are lots of stories of ghosts in old fashioned clothing - same in Old Town Alexandria. DH was just talking about it with a neighbor the other day.

Our resident ghost is from this century though and died here at the house - we found this out years after we moved in and long after we knew we had a ghost. He's friendly, has a sense of humor and quieted down after we asked him to, although we did end up removing all the doorbells because he liked to ring them among other things.  DD when younger saw at least 2 ghosts here as well and described them in great detail and still as an adult remembers one, a young preschool age girl, in particular down to the smallest details of clothing - colors and all. The other ones were more like the amorphous ghosts of ghost stores.

I also grew up in a house with a ghost and similar to our current house, my parents learned about it years after moving in and well after the ghost caused enough disturbances that babysitters called the police thinking someone had broken in the house. The ghost was a mentally ill adult child of the former owners and was very attached to the house he grew up in - he visited daily after my parents bought it and one day stopped coming by. Then a few years later they heard he committed suicide.  They had the house blessed and asked him to move on and things did quiet down but I was always fearful and realized that was probably why when my mom told us about it years later.[/quote]
