text: are ghosts real? have u ever seen one? are they scary? hi - i believe in ghosts, i have one or two in my house, laugh if you like i don't care!  i live in a little cottage in county antrim, and strange things are always happening, in my hall i have a lamp that switches itself off only when my husband passes by it, we have had friends and family walk past it to test it but it only happens to him - in that hallway a saw a little boy with dark hair and wearing a striped t-shirt and shorts skipping past our living room door, we do not have children there is only the 2 of us. also my husband was working in the garage and he dropped his hammer but continued working on, when he bent down to pick it up about 10 mins later it was sitting on the stepladders beside him - it totally freaked him out.  we hear voices and once even singing.  my house does'nt feel evil or creepy, but a happy place.  my father-in-law was mucking out our stables and heard some-one speaking - he answered then looked out of the stable and there was no-one there.  i have felt something tug at the back of my clothes the way a child would when they want your attention.   i'm not scared by my ghosts but conforted by the fact that they are there - i never feel alone. you could possibly write these things off as our imagination but there has been too many things happen!
