We used to have a ghost in my apt in Chicago in Boystown. It would turn on the radio in different rooms. It seemed benevolent to my roommates and I so we cohabitated peacefully. It was a beautiful old 1920s building and Violet, the old woman who owned it lived next door to us on the 3rd floor. She used to slide notes under the door telling us to keep it down, when no one was home. 🤷🏻‍♀️👻

Several months after moving in I metup with an old high school friend. He asked where I was living now and when I explained his eyes got real big. Lo and behold he’d helped a friend move out of the exact same apt days before I moved in. His friend was apparently not as cool with the ghost, or Violet blaming them for noises.

We have ghosts here at home. I think they are the spirits of the couple who had the house built in 1952. Both of them died here. Several people have "experienced" their presence, but I think I'm the only one who has seen them. I saw the man, and then the woman, two nights apart, several years ago. You remember those Theraflue (sp?) commercials where the guy feels like crap, and we can just sort of see through him until he takes the medicine? Well, that's just how they looked. And hey, I was completely sober at the time! They are mischievous but benign so far.
