I grew up in a house that had been used as a funeral home for years before. As a child I saw dark figures in my room at night, heard strange noises, saw a pan lid get up off the counter all by itself and throw itself across the kitchen. I had a hand come out from under my bed and hold me down. I had something that seemed like a tiny UFO hover around my bed at night sometimes. I was told I was either dreaming or had a vivid imagination. Later on when I was around 17 I was still seeing the figures walking about, but by this time one of them began to look remarkably like my granny. I also saw and heard a fire, mostly in the middle of the night, my house burning. But it always faded when I would leap out of bed to look. My boyfriend moved in when I was 19. He began to see and hear things too. Strange bangings, odd flute music, and our own personal earthquake (only our bedroom) No one else felt a thing*. I moved away hoping to lose the problem. But the granny ghost followed me across two state lines. I went from scared to pissed when I saw her walking thru my new living room. I jumped out of bed and chased her thru the house flipping on lights and hollering "I'm not scared of you any more!" I never did see her again. But many years later an overnight guest ran into her in the middle of the night standing in my library... Guess she just hangs around to keep an eye on things... *Many years later my mom admitted to having seen and heard strange things when I was a kid, but she was afraid to say anything for fear someone would think that she was crazy. I had this beautiful place I used to like to hike when I was a teenager. It was real peaceful, lots of small lakes with tiny islands and foot bridges going between them. Hemlock trees and pine woods with a few sugar maples. Water cress growing everywhere, a bee tree, a waterfall. The kind of place you would expect to see fairies and such. I decided to explore farther than usual and came across a HUGE remains of a dead standing tree. It was either a maple or a beech tree I think. It was totally different than anything around it, and must have been a couple hundred years old when it died. Coming right up out of a hump in the earth where everything else was flat. It must have been dead for a really long time, as there was only the main trunk and a couple pieces of giant branches left. I started walking towards it when suddenly I felt the most horrible feeling coming from the tree itself. I was seriously repelled by it, but fascinated at the same time. The closer I got the stronger the BAD feeling got. I became terrified, but didn't know why. My rational mind told me that this was ridiculous. I felt compelled to walk up to the tree and touch it, and I began to shake. Seems like it must have been something like a panic attack. Well, I walked right up to that old tree and put my hand on it and it was as if someone flipped the OFF switch, and all that bad feeling evaporated. It freaked me out so much I bolted and ran all the way to the road... Well, I understand, or at least think I do, how ghosts work. The more afraid you are, the more they can mess with you. But I'm stumped to this day on what possibly could have been going on with that tree.... Any ideas or better yet, educated guesses? Oh yea, and if that ain't wierd enough, my mom had 7 miscarriages before she had me. AND my husbands mom had 7 misscarriages before she had HIM. AND he is posessed by a spirit from biblical times. Go figure...
sure I do absolutely recognize this stuff, had about 50,000 visions myself. 'The power of love rathur than the 'love of power' brings peace to this humble abode right now.' Peace unto you - Honor Seed
Every living thing on earth has a spirit, people , animals, plants, Trees, maybe its spirit is yet still verry much around and you stumbled on to it ? I would look at it as a verry special event, nothing to be feared!
Yes all living things have spirit, both bad and good. At the funeral home you are dealing with living peoples sadness memory spirit of departed people they came to give their last respects to.

An ex of mine had a wierd house with a tree connection too. It wasn't an old house, but a new one, built by her parents. It had a porch that went all the way around one side connecting the front to the back, and I would hear somebody walking on it anytime I left after dark. I never saw who it was, but her entire family all said it was a guy in a dark blue sweatshirt with the hood pulled up, couldn't see his face but knew it was a guy, and could never see his legs. He liked peeking around corners. Drove their dogs crazy. They said the "activity" in their house used to be worse. Things moving. An old lady presence that was... mischievious. Their house got struck by lightning upwards of 20 times. Anyways, this is where the tree comes in. The woods behind her house were bad. No other way to say it. When it got dark, you'd be crazy to go in them. Rock pilings would simply appear at their edge (3 rocks stacked on top of each other) all the time. They were unnaturally quiet. About a half mile into them there was a huge, huge oak tree. I only ever saw the stump of it, but it was struck by lightning... three times in one night. They heard the strikes, and I could even see where each bolt hit it. The ground was black, like it had been burned, and it simply felt horrible to be there. After that night the activity supposedly died down around their house. No more manifestations... just a wierd feeling the guy was around, kinda following. The old lady never came back. Things stopped moving. Very wierd.
The placed here was bathed in cobalt blue light, at least on the shelf high on the wall where I kept many figurines. Behind the magical screen of blue light the figures waved happily at me. A model of the mummy in the corner stood waving excitedly. Santa waved from his lofty perch. Others nodded and waved in merry unison. The place looked like 'Its a Small World After All' at Disneyland. real cool closeup of blue roofed half timbered and walled mansion at Storybook canal boat ride at Disneyland.
