Welcome back to road map. The series where I give little tips and tricks every Saturday. This week we delve into the strange, the scary, the funny? A story about tips on how to tell if your house is haunted.
Congrats you own a home or want to own a home. We need to make sure the last inhabitants have completely moved out. We don’t want to live with roommates. Get a lay of the land start by looking over the whole home, make sure you remember general locations of items in the home. In case they move. Check for cold spots; it could just be an old basement with a draft or a life stealing entity from another realm.
Hear those creaks under your feet as you walk up the stairs. They shouldn’t make that noise at 3 am when everyone’s asleep. The paint is peeling in your new kids room. Don’t worry, some fresh paint should fix that. It’s not a secret passage being used by a hermit now living in the walls. The roof makes a rumbling noise. It does that right? Yeah it’s just the house settling, it was built one hundred years ago. You’ll get used to it.
You wake in the middle of the night and the tv’s on, blaring the starting theme song to three amigos. I swear I turned that off. Don’t worry it’s just faulty wiring. Why is the back door open? Just the wind, the door seal is worn out, it’s a very old door. The lights start to flicker. I’m sure it’s just some mice chewing on the wires.
Welcome to your new home, don’t worry. Unless the coffee table gets thrown and smashed against the wall, you start hearing voices, and seeing human forms you should be just fine. I’m sure it’s just an old home. At least, I hope.
