That is pretty horrible. But I'd imagine the opening and shutting door probably has something to do with moisture seepage in the wood frame.

I agree, or he's just making it up. My blood kin are pretty damn strange

Add the Queen Mary to my list... but I didn't get to go inside... they were doing their Dark Harbor Halloween thing and they'd shut down their night tours. I was a little peeved seeing as I'd tried to call, but got no answer. I could have gone on the ship through their "mazes" but I was tired of them. I plan on going and taking their tour at a later date... when they don't have the ship closed down for haunted houses. I personally think things are scarier in their natural state.

I've heard it's fun. I was going to stay there for Pyrate Daze in Sept 2009... but when the date rolled around, my pocket book was lacking. =/

I heard there were stories about the original Queen Mary, but I never knew what they were. That ship never really struck me as being "creepy," but it is a relik of a by gone era of ocean liner transportation. In it's hay day, ocean liners were THE only way to cross an ocean. There was no air trave industry. I remember being really creeped out by photos taken of the Titanic by the team who found that wreck on the ocean floor. If they were to some how rais that ship and dry dock it. I bet there would be all kinds of haunting and apperiaion stories about it.

Any trip to the DMV is pretty terrifying.
All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.

I live roughly 30 minutes away from Gettysburg. That place is pretty haunted. It's very easy to pick up EVPs there. And of every place I've ever been in my life it has the strangest atmosphere to it. You don't even have to know what happened there to know that SOMETHING happened there. They have really neat Ghost Walk tours. And the battlefields are great to walk around when it's not tourist season. I went there on Halloween a few years back to go ghost hunting. The most distinctive thing I experienced was smelling cherry tobacco up on Little Round Top.

We have a Civil War Battlefield here, too, called Stones River. It was actually about as big a battle as Gettysburg, went on for three days; but the Union guy who won it (Rosecranz) was a political enemy of Grant's, so Grant made sure the story of Rosecranz's greatest victory was never emphasized.

Anyway, my husband used to work out there during the summer when he was in high school & college, and he knows tons of ghost stories about it. There is an area called the Slaughter Pen where he says the temp is always ten degrees colder than anywhere else on the field, and birds won't fly over it.

The Battle of Stones River took place about six months before Gettysburg (late Dec-early Jan 1862-63). My husband says it was significant because it gave some teeth to the Emancipation Proclamation, proved the Union might actually win the war.

In Chicago, by Chicago State Univ, there was a prisoner of war camp that was used to house confederate POWs. The conditions there weere wretched, officials were corrupt, starvation, beatings, torture and desease was rampant. I don't think there's anything left of the original baracks or buildings where prisoners were held, but there have been a lot of ghost stories associated with the area where that prison stood.

The Civil War, was prehaps the most horific episode in American history. The term "brother faught against brother" was qute litteraly what happened, as family members who lived in the North or were loyal to the Union clashed violently with their own kin. It's no wonder that Civil War battlfields are hot beds of hauntings and ghost stories.
