In the footsteps of Lankester Merrin, LOL!

There were numerous occasions when small children's toys such as lego bricks and marbles would swirl up in the air, and shoot off in all directions, i was hit a number of times, once in the head by a marble.
I could never see the direction thrown by all the small objects, but i am sure a lot were thrown where no one were standing, when the marbles hit the carpet they didn't bounce or roll, it was if they hit sticky mud and they were hot to touch!
Matches would burst into flames in the kitchen sometimes.
On one occasion when i wasn't there, but Maurice Grosse was, the whole cast iron fire place was pulled out of the wall in the girls bedroom and flung across the room, it was very heavy, a few days later i tried to pick it up, and it was too heavy to be done by the girls!
I did see tables move and chairs by unseen hands, i have no explanation for this!
My question to you is do you feel this was poltergeist activity created by the girls or demonic? What's your sense of it?

Hi Debi,
This was a very special case, i tried to find fraud but couldn't, the girls tried to play tricks on us for attention, as children do, but we always found them out.
If i am really honest i feel this was a real case of paranormal activity, if you pushed me i would say i feel it was demonic, but that is an opinion that i am uneasy about!

Thanks for the honest answer, and I understand it is opinion only. I've always felt that particular case had a demonic "feel" to it.

Very well put! It’s an honor to have a first hand account on this famous haunting.

Maybe you could investigate that hotel in Paris for me and see if there are any reports of hauntings there at the George Fifth. That was it and bet they painted it over the years. Or I recall it wrong. I have slight esp and do weird stuff so I believe all you said and neat on the investigator part. You could write books on that I bet. I write fantasy and did some of my esp in the hero of the story. Gave him visions he gets to help the king. Hope to get it out to Amazon before I die. I want to do a castle tour out here they say has hauntings. But my foot pain makes it so I can't do steps now. I've had 3 surgeries in that foot and bone spur in Achilles tendon caused it all. Have one in right foot too. But leaving it alone if I can. It is painful too. So nerve pain dr is helping me now. Limits my things to do I'm afraid. It would be neat to find something in that hotel of mine to confirm of my story of the ghost there. I was wide awake during it. I needed sleep and couldn't with that racket. lol

I totally believe you. And am amazed you got to be present for such a famous haunting.

Hi Boo, sorry to hear about your feet.
I thought i would write some spooky black humour involving my health and Jack, the Halloween Pumpkin King who tried to steal Christmas, this is a true story!
On Halloween 2016, i was making my own steak burgers in preparation of my mothers 89th birthday party, my mother was helping me mix up the meat, therefore i said it was apt that we had blood all up our arms on Halloween! Sadly a few minutes later my mother fainted, fell on the hard floor and badly broke her ankle, which needed pins and an operation, i nursed her for six weeks apart from washing her.
On Halloween 2017, i bought a plastic pumpkin and skeleton to place outside our house, so the local children would call, trick or treating. In between then and Christmas, i found a discarded, broken Little Tikes plastic summer house, that i painted like a Christmas Grotto, and thought i would put a large Christmas display outside my house for last Christmas, even though it was tough as i was disabled.

I thought also i would try something different, may be make a Grinch, but it was too difficult, so eventually i took the plastic pumpkin, made a hole underneath, took the skull off the skeleton, and put the two together, i painted the new head white and black, and ended up with Jack the Pumpkin King, however it did feel like making a voodoo doll, it was a bit scary! I then made a sign writing "Nightmare before Christmas", it was then ready to go in the front garden sitting on a white plastic stool!
On 7th January 2018 i was taking the decorations down, i took the plastic stool that Jack was sitting on inside to wash, but without thinking i sat on it which split the stool and i ended up on the floor with spinal fluid oozing out, breaking my spine and ending up with paraplegia!

The Moral of the real story is "Don't Mess with Jack the Pumpkin King" or he will get you LOL! Being in a temp. nursing home i only found out a few weeks ago that the Jack i built was still stored in the house EEKK! I told my mother to put it in the rubbish bin, i don't like Jack, EVIL CACKLE!

Oh Astro that is a tragic story. Do the doctors expect you to recover ? Is the paralysis permant ? I will be praying for you.
