Perhaps you have a room in your house that never quite feels right. Do you hear bumps in the night or see shadows out of the corner of your eye? Are you a medium or clairvoyant who can communicate with the ‘other side’?

Years ago I lived on the North Shore, Sydney. At that time I was renting a room in a very old sandstone house at Kirribilli. The room was bright and sunny. I shared the old house with 10 other people and wondered why they always gave me a strange look when I said what room I was in. It was a hot summer day when I decided to sit in the antique chair that was situated in the corner of the room. I tried to sit down but every time I felt cold and unwelcomed even though outside it was hot I could not sit down in this chair. I did not think much about it until I met a very elderly lady who knew about the history of the house I was staying in. She told me the house originally belonged to a very rich couple who lived there in 1905 and that the wife caught her husband cheating on her. She went on to tell me that the wife ended up hanging herself from a chair in the house. When I told her about what had happened to me she said to me; 'Yes, that is Mary.' I eventually moved out of the house because of all the strange things that happened to me in that room, like the following: a figure of the woman sitting on the edge of my bed, other figures walking down the hallway when nobody was there An old record player starting by itself in the middle of the night and the list went on I never believed in ghosts but after living in that house I changed my mind.
