I know of several instances where my mother, my son and a niece have seen my father........after he passed away due to a stroke.
My brother saw a woman sitting on his couch one time as he was going outside to smoke a cigar. Says he could see the couch thru her.
My nieces, his daughters have had experiences with ghosts. One spoke to the oldest telling her she had to do something. At first she thought it was her sister before realizing it was too early for her to be home from work. It scared her into going upstairs to sleep on the couch (She had a basement bedroom). As she was laying on the couch, she could see a light coming up the stairs. Before getting to the top, it disappeared.
The youngest had a picture taken with one of those Polaroid cameras by a friend while on the bus going to school. In the picture there was a young boy standing just behind her and he wasn't on the bus. They could see him in the picture but not behind her.
Another time, she was babysitting when the little girl walked into the livingroom and pointed next to my niece. On the couch, next to her was that little boy.
My son was home from school in his bedroom when he heard the door to the apartment open and close. He thought I was home from work early and went to look, my father was standing there. This was several years after his death.
I've been up to the family camp a couple of times by myself since my father died and can almost swear I have seen him just out of the cornor of my eye. This was one place he loved being at as it had been a dream of his.
My brother, mentioned above, went to the camp to get something with the intent of staying the night before returning home in the morning. From the moment he walked into the door, he had the strongest feeling that he shouldn't be there. The longer he was there, the stronger the feeling got. My brother has been an MP in the Army, Correctional Officer and in security. Not much bothers him but this time, he went with his gut and left after being there for less than an hour. If he had stayed, he would've had a hard time getting out as the road into camp washed out due to heavy rains we recieved. This was a year ago last Oct. He lives near the Vermont/Canada border which is almost 3 hours from the camp.
