Several years ago before we bought our house, Bert and I were sitting in our appartment one evening watching TV. For some reason we both turned our heads slightly to the right at the same time...just in time to see a willowy white figure moving down the hallway. We both said "Did you see that?" At first I thought it may be headlights from our bedroom window that faced the parking lot, or lights coming through our sons window. When we got up to check, both doors were tightly closed. There was no way it was a reflection of light. We found out that Robertas mom and both of her sisters had similar experiences on several occasions and it was suspected that it was a harbinger (Roberta's grandmother) checking up on her family. As odd as it was, I did not feel panicy or creeped out...quite the contrary, I felt at ease and safe.

In the house we live in now we have had several instances...each time exactly the same. I have been awoken from a deep sleep at early hours of the morning by an extremly loud thump on the roof/ceiling above our bed (we have cathederal ceilings...no attic). Although we live on a wooded lot, there is no way it could be a branch, squirrel or even racoon. It is/was a LOUD bang!! Like a large rock falling. The next day there is never anything on the roof. It is always VERY creepy and takes me a while to get back to sleep.
