Think I know what the mist is

Yeah, I'm okay with it as long as it doesn't do what it used to. I think he wants recognition & is happy at that. Though lately I've had odd dreams about him which is I guess his only way of communicating with me. My wife doesn't get scared of him, he's sort of become part of the furniture & visits occasionally. I've been trying to keep my emotions in check & making positive changes around the house. Clearing it up, trying to relax more etc. Just trying to fill it with good things & nice feelings as opposed to negativity & letting it get to me.
I had one dream last night where I was in his position. I drowned & tried to carry the body of a drowned man across a body of water. Except when I was found nobody could see me & they couldn't hear me. Eventually I watched as these people dragged my own body out of the water but it still didn't register I was dead. I walked around afraid most of the dream because nobody could hear me but this one person. That & when I did get noticed by something being knocked over I realised how much it scared people. When I woke up, I felt like something was leaving the room. It might've been just a dream but I feel like he was trying to communicate what it was like for him.
I went back to sleep & at one point I was just asleep in the same room I was in. I sat up & everything went utterly black & I heard this high pitch roar in my ear that made the side of my head hurt. I could feel this dark shape roaring against my ear. When I woke up to realise the electrics had gone off so I switched it on again & it took me about an hour to get my heart to stop racing.
You see... it'll be quiet for ages then stuff like that happens all at once. Lights still flicker & occasionally I'll see orbs or shapes but they're few & far between unlike when I first wrote in. I'm getting some church candles for my birthday as they remind me of my childhood. They're blessed by a priest I know. Maybe that'll help?

First, Happy Birthday! I've found that anything blessed in the home does one of two things....stirs it up or settles it down. You'll pretty much know when you bring them in the door, but I would certainly give it a try.

I like the fact you're trying to keep your space filled with positive thoughts and energy. That's excellent. I have shared here before that I have lived in a "haunted" home before, in fact two of them. The last one I was aware of who my "guests" were. One was a very benign but sad spirit, the other one not so much. It became as you describe....a mutual understanding and we simply "lived" with each other, although I had to draw strict boundaries for the one "Not so much" spirit.

Thank you! :) Could you tag me in your post about the haunted house? I'd like to have a read. And thanks again for your support. It means a lot! My wife & I've spoken about the whole thing & she believes me & said she never thought I was crazy. She's had her own experiences over the years but people tend to keep it to themselves for fear of people's judgement. I got a charity leaflet in the post which was Soldier S.O.S. on it. I put it on a shelf & it's the only room no pets get to go in because it's next to the front door. The next day I found the leaflet on the other side of the room & neither of us had gone in after I put it on the shelf over night. Little things... like it calms down when I put the plasma ball on & he leaves the other lights & electrics alone.
 
Let me see if I can dig that one up for you. It's been awhile on that one! lol

Support is never a problem for any of us here. :) The plasma ball is an interesting observation. He may be feeding off the direct source of it.

Did it ever resolve itself when you were there?
It was quiet when I left, but the new owner was into Ouija boards and that just started it right back up. I had two years of quiet before selling it. The spirit of Jacob, the young man spirit, does come to my new home now, as it was his residence when he passed and his ashes are still on the property. He doesn't come often, and I believe him to be just visiting. My son and I both talk to him and tell him to move on, and he usually listens without any problems. He's a very benign presence/spirit who does no harm. I believe he is just looking for his parents.

It's nice that he's found understanding & good intentions which is maybe why he's kind of attached to you. So the not so friendly one stayed in the old house?
I find ouija boards to be a really bad idea. I don't think I've ever met anyone who's played with them that didn't regret it afterwards. My grandmother had one in her house but she forbid everybody from ever touching it. She was very strict about it. Later in life as I'd seen people play around with them it tends to go wrong. Maybe that's just me being wary but I find it best to be on the side of caution with such things.
 
Most older members here are very used to my lecture: Ouija boards are TOOLS, not TOYS. If you don't know the rules and you don't know how to operate one, stay away from them. Your Grandma knew best.

Yes, the not so friendly spirit we believe to be my mother in law. (She was terrible, although very mentally ill.) She has stayed with the house, and does still move things about down there.

Jacob was a very sweet, very depressed young man who simply became overwhelmed with life. He was mildly autistic, 6'6", and never hurt a fly in life. He is much the same in spirit form. We have no fear of him when he comes by. He and my son, who is also a high function autistic, were close.

I completely agree. Ouija boards shouldn't be touched without knowledge & a real purpose as opposed to messing around treating it as a joke.
I'm glad to hear your son found solace with Jacob around. How did you find out who he was? Sorry for all the questions, I'm just curious as to what it's like for others.
