You guys should come investigate a home in one of our metro suburbs that is haunted. There was a team that came out a few years ago and investigated it and picked up some things while they were there. It's the Norwalk, IA story in the link.

Basically six people were killed in this home, 5 of which were children or teenagers, the guy that did it tried to kill himself, but was unsuccessful. I've been in this house, it's creepy as hell and I won't be going back in there.

So again I ask, how do brand new homes become haunted?

They don't.

My team is going back to the Villisca Ax Murder house tonight. Hope I have some cool stuff to share.

If you talk to any ghosts, ask them where they get their clothes. I've always wanted to know that.

and who gives them their chains?

somebody told me it was frightening how much topsoil we are losing each year, but I told that story around the campfire and nobody got scared

Not usually, no. More likely something attached to an individual than a location. Even more likely that it's explainable.

 

But it's not impossible.

Thanks for another one of your insightful posts, but I was asking the guys that do this stuff. ; )

I would guess he means if a ghost was to attach itself to someone or something. I'm sure there are theories out there as to how/why this happens?

Yes there are stories of kids loving a certain toy, then died tragically. Because they were so attachec to the toy or put so much energy into it. The house the toy is in can become haunted. From what it seems theres a decent size market for vintage toys or antiques. So buying one of these items could cause a new home to be come haunted.

 

Due to western expansion, wars between Native Americans, outlaws on the run, murders. Due to those reasons theres countless areas where people have died that their spirit could still be lingering around. Build a house in one of those areas and guess what you now have more guests then you expected in the home.

 

Or you can have a couple people playing with a ouija board. If you believe it could be a portal to the otherside then you could invite in spirits that won't leave. Similar to the movie exorcist. Which is suposable a true story about a house in Missouri.

 

Those are just some possible reasons on why a brand new or really any home could become haunted. Just because your hear some noises. Such as mentioned earlier the old hollywood cliche chains rattling in the basement. Doesn't mean your house is haunted. There can be natural causes to it. True investigators go in trying to prove the events have a natural cause. Because the overall goal is to find the truth, and to help people especially childred feel safe in their home. The only time anything should point out to evidence of a haunt is if you can not duplicate the effect by a natural way.

Exactly +1

 

The goal is always the truth. If a team goes in looking for the Ghost of Jacob Marley, they are in for a let down. Helping a family feel safer about their living situation is more rewarding tban catching something paranormal.

 

As Far as haunted posessions go, I always think of James Deans car. After his death the car was sold numerous times and people in posession of it ended up dying in an accident or being injured. Even when the car was torn apart, pieces of it were traced to accidents. Haunted or not thats some bad mojo.
