The house i live in right now is 103 years old, we moved in about 6 years ago. My mom always used to tell me and my brother that just because the house is old, it is not necessarily haunted. My mom just recently told me about some of the things that have happened to her and that there is something in the house. She said that the first or second night we were here, I was sleeping, my brother was sleeping, she was reading in bed, the dog was in my room, the cat was with her, and nobody else was in the house (my dad died when i was 4 years old). She said that she heard footsteps run down the stairs really quick. She went to check on me and my brother, we were still sound asleep and the dog couldn't have gotten down and back up the stairs so quick because she was very old. The next day when me and my brother were at school, she stood at the top of the stairs and said something like "I know this was your house long before it was ours. I'm not asking you to leave, I just don't want you to scare my kids. I'm a single mother and i work a lot so please watch over my children while I'm gone." or something like that. Last year in January my mom had surgery and couldn't walk up the stairs so she slept in the guest room downstairs. Once, she woke up in the middle of the night and saw an old man with a beard sitting on the end of the bed, she thought that she was just seeing thing because she was on a lot of medication. Later that year, my best friend's step dad was here to change the locks on the doors because my mom had just broken up with her boyfriend and wanted them changed incase he made other keys and could get in. My mom and my friends step dad were talking in the kitchen and he was looking into the living room, he is able to see ghosts, he told my mom that there is one in our house, it is an old man with a beard (just like my mom saw). He said that he was wearing very old clothes and was probably the man who originally built the house. One night, i think around November, I was in the family room, on the computer, it was about 1:30 am, the lamp on top of the fireplace was on and the it just suddenly turned off by its self, i don't know if it was just something with the electricity or what, but I wasn't really scared because I watch a lot of ghost shows, so I'm not very scared by stuff like that. Then another day about 2 weeks later, my mom told me to turn the TV off and go to bed, I got up from the couch and was about to walk over and turn it off and i just turned off by itself, once again, it may have been something with the electricity, i don't know, but I know that the sleep timer on the TV wasn't on because it would have said so. I don't think anything has happened since, at least not to me.
