[quote=Anonymous]Ive had several --- here are a few

For a year in college I lived in an old building that used to be abandonded and recently was renovated into apartments.  I think it has been vacent for over 15 years before hand.  The night after we moved in my roommate and I both woke up twice to our beds shaking, there was a train that passed through the town and assumed the apt was closer to the tracks than we had thought.  It didnt happen every night, just a few times a week but After several nights of that we checked the train schedule to figure out why we kept waking up.... no train at that time and we were right, no tracks close enough to our house.  We spoke with our landlord who had lived in the town for decades about what it could be and he told us that the building was a hospital during the civil war and ever since then people in the town say its haunted.  The story passed down is that the nurses would shake the beds of wounded soldiers during the night to see if they were still alive. After we found that out we would kid around and "tell the nurses" we were fine just going to bed and it only happened a few more times that year.

The night my grandmother died, I was crossing over the hospital bridge that connected it to the parking lot and I saw a train with its whistle go by in the distance... when I got to the room she had passed just minutes before. corny as it may sound my grandfather picked my grandmother up on the train everyday going in and out of the city for nearly 50 years ( he died several years prior to this) and I like to think that train was my grandfather going to pick her up one last time.

Later that week when we were putting together a photo collage for the viewing I couldnt find one particular picture of my grandparents together i searched everywhere and decided on something different and went to bed.  I was very upset and ended up waking up in the middle of the night and on my way to the kitchen there was the picture of the two of them on the floor ( i had been making the collage in my room so there werent pictures down there).... not the same one I wanted but one even better!  It was the two of them at the airport after my grandfather came back from the war. and the look on their faces said " we are happy to be together but whew! what a ride, we're exhausted!"

Finally -- a year later I was really missing my grandmother and I even said outloud "If I could just talk to her!"  and the phone rang.... caller ID said "The great Outdoor lodge"  Of course when I answered it was the wrong number -- but dorky me thinks it was my grandmother calling from "the great outdoors" just to check in.
