Theres a woman where I go to have a few beers who claims she never believed in ghosts until one night when she ran into a ghost of a man in a bar at the resturant where she was working.
The restaurant job was her second job and she had already worked an eight hour shift. I contend she was tired and hallucinating. I've explored every square inch of this now vacant old house and I saw not one thing out of the ordinary.
She could also have inhaled some carbon monoxide gas from the kitchen cooking area.
After the restaurant closed it reopened as an antique shop. One of the clerks claimed to have seen a woman standing in the door connecting to the area where the bar had been.
I contend she was either lying or had seen an "apparition" via the power of suggestion.
A child saw a man walk into a wall there and disappear. I contend children see things that aren't there.
A dog stood stock still growling at some invisible thing there. I contend he heard the water heater.
I also contend that this houses notoriety and history have caused some people to think its haunted and the power of suggestion makes people think they saw something.
Going further since the house is a huge rambling old 19th century building I think people subconscientiously think it should be inhabited. Ancient man knew that when they found a cave that it was either inhabited by an animal or another tribe. Stone age man probably never found a large uninhabited enclosed space and humans are genetically wired to suspect or know that someone or something is in the cave.
I contend that a stoneage human would be very reluctant to merely walk in a building like this with its large rooms, basement, attic and nooks a crannies that could hide an enemy or vicious animal.
This house is on Railroad street and Elm in Conyers Ga and it was build in the 1840's. Anyone who has ever read the book "The Haunting of Hill House" will be amazed at how similar this house is to the house in the book.
