Reply #1: When we were looking for a house [View All]

we (wife and 2 kids, 13 & 8) went with our realtor to this one house on a rural-ish cul-de-sac. We went in the house and looked around downstairs and it looked very nice. I had a strange feeling though, something very heavy and dark. I went in the garage and saw the side door had a chair wedged in front of it. Oh, I forgot to say that the alarm was set and the realtor had to turn it off.

We went upstairs and there were piles of stuff in some bedrooms and this one room to the right that had no windows and had a low sloped ceiling (like down to 3 feet, but up to about 12). I got the serious heebie jeebies in that room but didn't say anything to anyone about it. The upstairs was a bit messy for being shown but not trashed by any means.

When we all went back downstairs, without prompting my son(13) said "this house feels weird" and my daughter(8) said "this house scares me." My wife said she had the same feeling that I had, right when we walked in the door. I then told them about the chair in the garage and we left immediately.

I never did find any information on any abuse or violence that happened in that house, but the feeling we all got in there, independent from each other - something definitely happened in that house.

So, no, I don't think I could live in a house like that since we couldn't even stand walking around a house that we had no idea of what had happened in it.
