Random bangings? Is that building completely empty, or is there anything in there (e.g. office equipment)?

As an aside, anyone else hear this thread title to the tune of Oops Upside Your Head by The Gap Band?

I've lived in several houses and flats over the years, probably about 15 or so, and had spooky experiences in a few of them, but there was one in France that my parents owned that I was absolutely terrified of. I've lived in places where people have died plenty of times (and am currently) and it hasn't bothered me the slightest, but this house, the previous owners had a sort of granny annex on the top floor where the father lived, and he'd passed away and they'd sold the place. It was an old stone building in the countryside.
Well I've never, ever been so petrified of a room... My bedroom was in his old quarters, and after one night up there I refused to sleep there anymore, and spent the nights on the sofa. It was the unmistakable feeling of being watched, and the knowledge that someone else was in there with me. I felt scrutinised the entire time I was in there, and could feel him staring. It felt like there was a thin veil between my seeing him and just sensing his presence - I knew he was there.
My mum slept on that bed at a later time and said she'd had a weird dream about a man standing at the foot of the bed, who was apparently concerned about her. Creepy.
I too had a similar experience in a villa in France. I think I posted about it on another thread somewhere [Edit: Yes, here it is!]. I sensed a vague feeling of a 'bad presence' in one particular room of the cottage. The room was older, different to all the others in the villa, and had a child's cot in one corner which I found to be a focus of some apprehension for no apparent reason! We shut the door and didn't re-enter for the whole holiday. I don't think it was in Burgundy, though.I've no wish to hijack this thread, but you've just described an experience very, very much like something that happened to me and my (then) girlfriend.
Your holiday home wasn't in Burgundy, by any chance??
I had a similar thing with the house I lived at between the ages of six and twelve.
That's round the corner from me.this is the creepiest house IMO
Did you know about the death in the room beforehand or after you started getting creeped out?
