Over the past few years I've had a lot of different unexplainable things happen at my mom's house. Those things can only be described as ghost encounters, at least for me, my mom and step dad have also both seen things happen in the house. Here are a few of them:

The lights in the family room

We have two lamps in the room that are controlled by a remote and almost every night they would be turned off while my mom is watching TV. Sometimes we can even hear the button clicking when it happens.

Music

Every once in a while I will connect my phone or iPod to a speaker and play music in the basement while I'm doing something else. Therefore sometimes the music will repeat certain lines in certain songs and/or the music will get louder at parts where I know I wouldn't usually do that. This only happens in the basement and I know the songs well enough to here when changes from its original tune.

Names

Over the years both my mom and I have heard our name being called. I've heard my name, "Erin", said twice by a woman. One of those times I was completely alone in the house and it was during night.

Yoga Ball

When I was in my basement one night with a friend we were messing around with a yoga ball and when we were done, we rolled it into the corner. Now the carpet ends before the wall so the yoga ball was not on the carpet anymore and the carpet has about a half inch lip at the edge. The yoga ball would not have been able to just roll onto the carpet by itself or with the help of the air conditioning either. After a few minutes my friend and I at this point had started watching Netflix, with a clear view into the workout section, where the yoga ball was, but we couldn't see the ball. Then all of a sudden we saw the yoga ball rolling across the floor to the other side of the room. At that point we were freaked out and ran upstairs, but nothing else happened that night.

I'm not trying to convince anyone that ghosts are real and maybe some people can explain some of these things, but to me the house has some extra guests. I even have more stories related to this, from a hand on my shoulder to the channel changing.
