I have to respond to this. I am usually able to read the energy of a house; that was how we came to buy the one I live in now. Only once on our house search endeavor, did a house fool me. Looking at the pictures online, I felt a warm, folksy energy that seemed to welcome. So we went to see it. Met the real estate agent there, and went inside. As we entered the first floor, the welcoming vibe was apparent, but as we went up stairs it started to feel like something out of a nightmare. The energy up there was oppressive, gloomy and foreboding. I couldn't get out of there fast enough. I also wonder if men and women pick up on different things. Just my two cents.
