Real Haunted Houses

Real Haunted House

The Collinwood School

Cleveland, Ohio

Now a state monument, this school was the site of a huge fire in the early twentieth century. Over one hundred people died because the doors in the school opened inwardly rather than outwardly, preventing escape. Residents that live near the school have reported seeing a light come on in one room, traverse the hall and go back from whence it came. Police investigated and found no one living in the building.

This is interesting. I thought the outside doors opened out, but the vestibule doors, where everybody was trapped, opened inward. In any event, I guess none of the doors had a crash bar, they just had a knob.

I’ve lived being contacted by spirits my entire life untill i turned 12. Then i met this friend of my borthers friends girlfriend and she taught me how to use white magic. Which to me was bad, and i didn’t know anything about that! I always beleived in God and always went to church i stopped attending bcuz of the group i began to hang out with me, including my cousin and brother, started making fun of me. Anyways i began feeling the spirits then and seeing them and they followed me everywhere. I thoght i was going crazy! One night about 2:30 a.m. i woke up to use the bathroom and i see my mother sitting in the kitchen on a chair in the dark, i thoght nothing of it and went to pee. when i got out she wasnt there so i was like, what on Earth she usually tells me “Hey, Crystal!, don’t forget to turn out the light im goin to bed.” so i went to ask her what she was doin up so late and she says “Crystal, what are you talking about i was sleeping you just woke me up?, go to bed well talk tomorro.” so i did. I couldnt fall asleep for about an hour but i felt something cold only on my feet and i covered my head and went to bed. The next day we did talk and i told her and my dad what i was doing, witch craft, ouiji board, tarot cards all of that. They told me to stop and i did and a whole bunch of things happened then one niht i finally got tired of all the things happening to me i began crying i told the girl to leave me alone because nothing was happening or working for her only and just to me. I got on my knees and began to pray to Jesus and God, and asked them for help. The nexy day, was a saturday, and two ladies came to my porch and knocked on my door, they were from a church trying to get ppl to go. my father always told the to f*** off or something bad like this, but this time he told them to hold on a second, he came and got me and i began speaking to the women and the told what to do, which was burn everything or throw it in a garbage as far away from me as possible and i did and after three days everything stopped. Sometimes when spirits want to communicate with me and i feel them in an area where i am at, i just ignore them. I know how bad opening a door to the other side can be, God bless us all.
