The home I have now is the first one in my entire adult life that has NOT been haunted (except for ghost cats). I think it's because the house wasn't built until 1979. But before I bought this place, every single home I've lived in as an adult has been haunted in some fashion (they've always been older homes).
Ghost cats seem to love me and seek me out. There's a black cat and a calico cat that often show up on our stairway. It doesn't seem to matter if it's day or night. Sometimes when I'm at the computer, a cat will come up and rub against my legs. I think it's one of our "real" cats, but when I bend down to pet it, there's no one there.
I think my late father likes to play tricks on me once in a while. We have a problem here where sometimes car keys turn up missing. I'll have placed them on the kitchen table, but they're nowhere in sight when I go to get them. So I end up tearing the house apart, looking for them. Then I'll go back into the kitchen to look once again. And there they'll be, sitting right there in plain sight on the kitchen table. I always think it's my dad because this started happening to me right after he died in 1992.
One day soon, I'll tell you guys about the ghost in the heater. I lived in a very haunted neighborhood a long time ago in Albuquerque, NM. Lots of stories from those days!
