As a part of our Halloween 2018 coverage, we’ve decided to open up a bit of our personal lives, and share some scary stories. These are full on eye witness accounts of spooky occurrences. So, get your popcorn ready. Feel free to pull these stories out around the campfire, too. Today, we’re looking over a collection of weird occurrences that happened at the house I grew up in.
This one’s tricky. There have been plenty of weird things…odd bumps in the night, if you will…that have happened out at the house I grew up in. Weird noises, stuff moving, typical #SpookySeason shit. Instead of trying to draw a tiny little moment out into an entire 300-word blog, I figured I’d just compile some of my favorite, more memorable moments into a short recap. So, LFG!
Television – On several occasions, we’ve dealt with TVs coming off and on seemingly of their own accord. One night, I went to sleep with SportsCenter highlights running and woke up to jarring static noise and snow on the screen.
Antique lamp – My parents have this antique lamp that has crystals hanging from the shade. I’d call it chandelier-esque. My dad used to tell me about a time he was going upstairs to bed. He looked over at said lamp to turn it off, and he noticed one of the crystals spinning furiously. Just one….no movement from the lamp itself. But, one isolated crystal spinning like crazy.
People talking – If you read my story the other day, you already know about this one. But, my mom and my dad also both said that they had woken up in the night to hear the muffled sound of people having a conversation. My mother once described it as hearing a radio show downstairs. This seems to happen pretty regularly.
The orbs – If you don’t know what floating orbs of light are thought to be, in short, they’re ghosts. It’s a phenomenon that Google is going to be the best bet for. So, don’t think you’ll get a scientific explanation of that shit on SoBros Network. Back when we used to use disposable cameras for everything, I used to get photos developed with orbs floating around in the background all the time.
But, one particular story that my dad used to tell sticks out to me – he said that he and my mom were playing cards one night when suddenly a flash of light caught both of their eyes. He followed the orb as it floated around the kitchen and eventually disappeared, then turned to my mom and said, “did you see that, too?” as if to say, “I’m not crazy, am I?” But, my mom confirmed that she saw it, too.
Hope you’ve enjoyed this brief rundown of events, but there’s plenty more where that came from…just read below. And, when SoBros HQ opens at this house, I know I can count on no one to actually come visit us.
