Haunting experiences...

[Jameshow]

Aside from the coffee machine, and all the naughty cyclists, here, I'd like to start a thread about haunting experiences. I've had a few of them, but don't know where to start the thread

Off we go:-

I was once stuck in a cave for 12 hours that was quite memorable...

Or the time my dad and I brought a car and he drove it away only to find the wheels weren't full tightened up.

Haunting as in ghosts/uncanny or stuff you didn't like/dangerous?

Plenty of the former and the latter.

Nearly drowning off the coast of Cornwall when I was about twenty five.

I've been camping a few times near Chingle Hall, Whittingham. It's a mildly famous allegedly haunted house but nothing ever happened.

On the other hand the nearby sice closed Whittingham Mental Hospital would test it's escape siren which surprised us the first time we heard it!

I once farted in a lift and the door took an age to open.

The bit in the Scooby Doo intro with the glowing skull used to give me the willies.

A few tales .....

Fawkham in Kent is reputedly haunted by a "drifting nun" on Pennis Lane, a tragic figure who screams before vanishing, linked to a 500-year-old tale of assault and a skull kept at Pennis House. Another local ghost is "Mollie" at the Brandshatch Place Hotel, with reports of poltergeist activity and a phantom coach in the area.
Key, reported, and historic ghost stories in Fawkham include:
The Nun of Pennis Lane: A nun was attacked and killed 500 years ago near Fawkham Green. She is seen running down Pennis Lane, screaming soundlessly, sometimes accompanied by the sound of hooves.
The Skull of Pennis House: Local legend states the murdered nun's skull was kept in Pennis House to bring prosperity. When removed, the house experienced severe, poltergeist-like disturbances.

Very close to where we live!
And in the same area, about 30 yrs ago, was a grusome murder of a mother/wife, by her husband.

I do remember as a child/teenager that at 22:00 at night the local authorities would test the air raid siren, not exactly inducing to a good nights sleep in the late 70's early eighties !
