I have a lot of ghost stories because I have a ghost "living" inside my house. I'll break it up into a few of them, so here's part I...

I live (with my family) in a house that is about 50 or 60 years old, and as far as we know, no previous occupants have died while they were the owners of our house. Behind us, however, is a very large, old house that used to be a nursing home. I remember going to a sleepover there while I was in junior high. The girls that lived there were kind of "different," shall we say. They told us stories of a little girl ghost who walked up and down the halls, moved things in their rooms, played with their hamster and sat in a rocking chair. I didn't believe them because they were really strange and I thought they were making it all up to be scary.

It's been several years and lately a lot of things have happened around my house. We'd always hear what sounded like footsteps or floorboards creaking, but we attributed it to having an old home. One night, my best friend and I were at my house getting ready to go out to a party. We were the only ones there. I came out of my parent's bedroom to find her standing frozen on the landing above the stairs, staring in shock at the wall. I snapped her out of it, and she told me that she saw the shadow of a person going down the stairs. She said it looked like shoulders and a head with something on it... When she told me this, I remembered the stories of the neighbor's "ghost" and how they said it was a little girl with a bow in her hair. It had to have been the same being.
