Lamp Ghost Story                                      Back to Ghost Stories

By Barb Thompson

I want share something with you about my home.  Its haunted, not in your typical
way It doesn
't have the cold spots or the dark objects that move just out of the
corner of your eye, or the sound that go bump in the night.
My ghost likes my touch lamp.  It all started back
in May of 2005.  My husband and myself and my
two daughters move into our present home.  All
the bedrooms are on the second floor and mine
is located at the end of the hall.  Under the
window sats a dresser and on top of that is the
lamp.  The window is in full view of the driveway.  
So you can see any light that might come through
the curtains when you pull in the drive.

Well, this all started around the time we first
moved in.  I would be in my room getting dressed, leave the room and shut off the
light.  I would then go do what I had to do, like go to work, run to the store or
whatever, then come home, pull into the drive and notice that the light was on.  At
first I told myself that I forgot to turn it off.  But then I knew that something was
amiss.  I told my husband about it, but he's always gone as he drives truck.  Doing
the things that people do when they believe you're crazy, like rolling his eyes and
shaking his head, he finally went to look at the lamp.  He found nothing: no bad
wiring, nothing wrong with the lamp.  He told me I was basically crazy!  My
daughters even laughed at me.  Well, I just let it go.
One night, my husband and I had come home from being out,
and the phone started to ring.  Of course, having teenage
daughters in the house, it wasn't where it was supposed to be.
We heard ringing coming from upstairs.  So, we both went up to
answer the phone, get ready for bed, etc.  Just as soon as our
feet hit the top steps, the lamp (with a three-way bulb in it)
started going from the lowest light level to the highest.  It just
kept going up and down, then it would go off.  My husband's face
turned the best shade of white, mouth dropped open, eyes got
big and all I could do was laugh and ask, "Now who's crazy?!"  

From that day forward my husband put a regular bulb in the
lamp.  I really think he is a little afraid of the lamp or to believe in
ghosts.
