The ancient egyptians used to keep cats in their temples because it was believed they could see and somemtimes ward off evil spirits.. that being said cats are very sensitive, and her reaction shouldn't be ovverly worrysome.. if nothing bad has occured yet no reason to think it will now, just look into it in whatever way makes you feel comfortable.

Im not doubting him or you, but if I was going to do that to freak someone out I would palm the item and pull it out after I took the vent off.

Shouldn't have uncorked it

For some real fun check out the Smurl family case.

Search "smurl" on g. These suckers battled demons and got owned. :boid

u uncorked the shit wow dont know shit but in the movies u let the shit loose :1orglaugh

You said he believes in this shit, right?

He is fucking with you.
He put it there and is playing with your head.
:2 cents:

Did you recognize the towel?

actually that messing with your head part does make sense

see how your stance has changed from the beginning of the thread to now

he might want to make you a believer too?

i would move i hope he is playing if you just hear tapping and shit why be scared if you start having shit fall and stuff no reason move

You and your bf were just hanging out and decided to unscrew the vents? Okay, I guess that happens to folks that post here.

cat smell it :)

The OP is a mentally-underdeveloped retard, for assuming that funny feelings and animal reactions somehow constitute evidence of a "ghost", for which there is no real evidence whatsoever in the first place.

The OP should have just said "I felt funny and I could only conclude that Puff the Magic Dragon flew overhead", for equal applicability to REALITY (that is, none whatsoever).

angeleyes, if you want my take on it, here it is :)
That's a ceramic scented oil jar (I think Glade had some on the market about 5-10 years ago) Same look although in Canada they were wider jars. My guess is whoever lived there before you, found there was a funky smell there, put that there so vents be pushing out scented air.

The thing is my previous roommate asked if someone died in the house because he would hear strange noises in the room (before i met my bf). Then my bf asked the same question and the cat would never go in the room. The "spirit" or whatever never messed with me but its not just my bf who thought the place was haunted.

As to why he began opening the vents...he heard noises coming from them and got out a flashlight to look down them and I saw him take it out so i know hes not trying to spook me out for the hell of it...

Good call...:thumbsup

Move to him or rent another home. And write a good short story or movie from this story, if you'll be half as good as Stephen King, you'll be a millionaire. Sell the little thing for a mint at the end.. and there will be a happy end, girl. Oh an a new boyfriend is also a must.

Double post, sorry

why do people think when people die they want to scare us funny stuff

Why not? If I was a ghost and I didn't know the new tenants, I'd scare the shit out them just for shits and giggles.

LOL Crazy stuff always seems to happen to you angeleyes!!

all jokes aside

hope you find the right solution to this muck a muck

Yeah, we decided that we are actually going to take it to one of those wicca stores to find the origin and what we should do with it. Especially if it was some kind of ritual with another culture, we want to keep with it and do what we are "supposed to" with it.

OK, now the freak is on............. we recorded the room lastnight for shits and giggles and just now decided to listen to it and we hear some weird as heavy whispering shit that you can't quite make out.

I don't believe in this shit, Either I'm losing my mind, the recorder is fucked up or I don't know WTF to think..... Will upload the recording shortly.

Those are usually incense oils, the previous resident put them in the air vent to spread the scent. No ghost here..

Ok wow, I just read through the replies here and I have to re-post

IT'S A FUCKING SCENT OIL BOTTLE!!! NO GHOST

http://vintageindie.typepad.com/vint...s_of_clay2.jpg

there is no such thing as ghosts spirits etc etc

no need to be alarmed

and the plot thickens...

vial of spanish fly ....

That's not necessarily accurate but in this case it seems to just be a scent oil bottle..

Jesus christ.
Throw the bottle out, and get one with life eh?
It's all in your head, like all mumbo-jumbo.

All you're gonna do is start to waste money on 'healers' or the 'spiritually intouch'.

I can just see their forums: "hahah, this woman came to me with a scented oil bottle. I told her it was an Incan pain vial. Should get at least $5k out of her, LOL"

Thread of the year?

Actually its voodoo. Most likely contained the ashes of an animal. A bat or a bats heart to be more specific. Its black magic used to break up a love affair or marriage.

Doesn't the cap being on the bottle sort of rule out it being an air freshener in the vent?

I don't buy the whole ghost putting it there stuff. And well don't really believe in ghosts myself either. The closest thing I've ever came to believing in them was in an old house I lived in my son always asked me about "the man in the basement." He was 2-3 so I didn't put much into it. The way I explained it to myself is the Gas guy going down there to turn on the gas when I moved in which is the only other male to be down there besides me the whole time I lived there. I assumed that my son never saw him leave so he figured he was still down there.

There was one other instance at that house. I came home one day and opened my front door to ear a big crashing sound upstairs. I went up to look around and saw my surfboard laying on the floor so that explained that. Later that night I went into my second story sun room and the painted shut window was open. But there again I had an explanation. Someone was likely in my house knocked over the surfboard as they headed for the window to jump down.

Simply put there's always an explanation. Whispers on a recorder could just be your voices in the other room doing the dirty or talking in your sleep. Voices carry easily in those old houses.

post the audio yo

No, that's how it's done. It's very common, the oil leaks out throgh the unglazed ceramic just enough where it's released slowly over time and doesn't evaporate too quickly. This really is very common stuff depending on what circles you hang out in. Go to any headshop and you'll see this everywhere.

yeah i want 2 hear it :helpme:Oh crap

Many years a go we lived in a flat where two kids had died in a fire, We knew nothing about it until about a month later when the neighbours told us what had happened, Before that the flat seemed fine but after we found out what had happened my misses thought the flat was haunted, I guess things like this play on some peoples mind and they start to imagine all sorts of things, and once youve got it into your head that something is not right about a place, its kinda hard to think otherwise. I personally dont believe in ghosts but you never know I guess..

Massive sig views in this thread lmao.

yep why not if it says get out that would be kool

Love some of the advise in this thread LOL
