Our home was built in 1990 on the site of a former workhouse...the house stands around where the orchard and the building was...so maybe between both...The workhouse chapel is still standing close by and the grounds there are full of the graves of former WH residents.
When we moved in we knew none of this...our daughter was then 3 years old and began to speak about "the ladies in the wall" almost immediately...apparently they "popped out of the wall" in her room...but only their heads :shock:
Being a bit fanciful, I did question her further and she said that the ladies had brown skin and smiled at her...and they wore "scarves" on their heads. She didn't seem to mind them so I decided not to question her or anything.
Over the last 4 years my husband who isn't given to many fancies has seen a man at the window in our bedroom when he walked into the room...just a very shadowy figure he said...indistinct at the head and extremities...and seemingly "made out of shadow" but blurred. (I am sometimes too afraid to look at this window when I am in bed alone)
He sees lights regularly and one night, we were both lying in bed talking when the whole room was lit up by a sudden bright flash of blue light...this was around 2am....there is no road nearby so no traffic and we couldn't work out what it was at all.
Noises are regularly heard and as I said, my husband sees lights which seem to "creep" up walls. The ladies in the wall have not been back since my daughter was about 5...she seemed to see them in the summertime. Maybe she's too big now? I felt qute sad that they stopped coming...they seemed to be watching my daughter or something? There were always 3 of them.
I have felt "something" lift my hair in the night when I lie in bed and once my hair was pulled quite sharply....my 4 year old has on occassion complained that someone has hit her when nobody is near her... I wondered if anyone here would have any advice? The man by the window has been (possibly) sighted by a visitor who saw someone going up the stairs when we were all in the kitchen.
