    I don't think that's the street. I know of a family that used to live in that area, i think it was the mid 80's that the father hung himself and when the wife found him she killed herself as well. They had 2 young daughters.

    Yep! 80' to 82' then 87' to 89'

    The house what this old, white, two story that set back from the road on University Ave right before it merged with Ave M on the north side of Huntsville. That was some strang neighborhood. But it was a five bedroom house that we rented for $350 a month. Had some crazy shiznit go down in that house.

    Well this house had holes in the porch and there were holes in some of the floor inside the house. It was basically unlivable.

    Damn, those were fun times :D Thanks for bringing back those great memories mc mark :)

    From the ebay item that was posted's buyer questions. Very well written ghost story (account?). It's probably the equivalent of 70 or so pages but I'm almost done and can't stop. It's damn good. Dunno if I believe it, but definitely a page turner.

    it could be a prank.

    when i was in college, i use to have some roomates that would always play pranks. they put a tape player in another roomate's room. they knew what time he usually comes home and recorded from 30 minutes into the tape calling his name slowly and quietly. they hid it in the vent and left the house. about 40 or so minutes later we came home to see him out in the lawn waiting for us, too scare to go in by himself. to this day, he still thinks the house is haunted.

    I grew up in Woodland Trails, and I remember hearing about that story when I was really young - like elementary school aged. My house wasn't haunted, but my best friend was absolutely convinced that her house was. I never really spent the night to find out if it was or not.

    ill try to help you out with what little i know.

    ghosts are supposed to be the souls of dead people.
    jinns are an entirely different living thing from humans. they exist on their own, they're made of smoke, they eat bones, and they're sort of human-like, ie they have families, they think, there are good ones, bad ones, they have religions like we do, etc. of course this is according to the islam religion.

    I worked for two summers at a country club pool house. Right next door is an old abandoned house that they now use for storage. The story behind the house is the former head grounds keeper lived there his entire life and died in that house.

    Everybody would always joke around about how so many people have had these kinds of experiences with ghosts, spirits or whatever you would like to call them. Nobody ever felt threatened by them it was just kind of accepted and ignored, for those who had experienced anything.

    Strange things like pipes randomly banging against the wall in odd sequences and all the locker doors being shut when nobody was in there. One time before we opened, we heard all of the locker doors get shut one-by-one simulateneously when nobody was even in there---it was something straight out of a movie. To make it even more interesting, the men's and women's locker rooms are right next to each other and the strange locker room noises never come from the women's locker room, only the men's.

    Another example is myself and some of my co-workers were standing around talking them all of a sudden all the faucets turned on then immediately shut off as soon as I went over to the sink to turn them off. It was rather strange.
