Boo!
So today my sweeties phone rings and it's on of our tenants. I was eavesdropping of course and found the progression of the conversation to be quite odd. Turns out the tenant was calling with a rather odd question about whether or not anyone who has rented their apartment before they moved in had complained about spirits/ghosts making appearances in one of the bedrooms.
He told of how his young son has been being scared half to death by an apparition of a man in his bedroom. He says that his son has been "visited" by the specter three or four times over the past couple weeks.
The son who is seeing the man ends up so scared that he's making himself sick and throwing up over it. He insists to his parents that there is a man in his room, even though there isn't anyone in the household who can see him.
Odd isn't it? And a definite first for us as landlords.
My sweetie has told me before, however, that in the downstairs apartment of that house (the tenants that called today are on the second floor) when he has been in there alone and working on things that he felt like someone was watching him and he'd turn to see who it was but no one was there.
So maybe that house is haunted. Interesting prospect.
Of course my first reaction is we need to get this ghost to sign a lease and start paying rent. Second reaction is to consider looking up the number for a local ghost hunter who might be interested in checking things out for us.
