Or are you too rational for it?
Erm...
Either ways..
Catch A Haunting on Discovery Channel on Saturday night if you have cable at home and some free time to spare.
This is a 6 part series with a different story each week told by witnesses who said that they have experience contact with the supernatural world.
Seriously, I am not a big fan of horror genre.
I mean... why should I subject myself to scenarios that exacerbate heart debilitation.
What for?
So that I can pay more to the doc when I grow old?
But that was a notion I have for horror movies. Just the fictional kind. I do like the idea of getting tales from real life people who said they see them.
Of course... this can be fictitious too.. but then again... the gag of eye witnesses work for me.
So be a a couch potato once in while!

Content from this week A Haunting: Echoes from the Grave
Buying the House
In a particular year during 1960s, a newlywed couple with four children from their previous marriages bought a new house that was built in the 1920s. The couple, being young and not financially stable, got this house at a rather cheap price and were looking forward to the good times they can have in the new house. But there was something ominous about it. The landlord who leased the house said something telling to the jubilant couple as they drove off after the deal....
"I hope you are good warriors"
...
So the family moved in. Things were going well though there were things out of the ordinary happening around them.
The tap kept on turning on by itself. (The mother just dismissed this to the fact that the house was old.)
The window in the master bedroom was nailed dead when they just moved in and someone was making a racket at night.
And one particular incident was still remembered by the mother and her son after so many years.....
One night after having their dinner, mum was putting washed dishes onto a dish rack. The son was helping his mother out by passing washed dishes to her. This seems ordinary only that when she turned to place the dish on the rack, it had moved from the left side of the sink to the right.
Both the mother and child were stunned. Yet, mum tried to convince her son that it had been there all along. She then moved the rack back to its original position nonchalantly.
The Fire Alarm
In a few consecutive nights, the mother had the same nightmare of a fire burning down the house. This woke her up night after night till one day she smell gas in the house and call in for people to check on the pipes.
The person checking the pipes told her something alarming - Pipes were leaking and the house would have become a large bomb waiting to be detonated anytime. (Of course.. this could be JUST pipes leaking.)
The Soldier and the Woman
The mother took on the offensive and got two experts in visiting the house. The medium (person whom ghosts can talk through) was disassociated from herself and talked about the presence of two spectres.
One was a soldier from the time of civil wars in America and the other, a woman who insisted that the family in the house were slaves to her. The family was puzzled by the fact that the spectres were there even before the house was built. But then again, it was told to them that these spirits were not there to haunt the house. Their existence were linked to the land and any house built on that piece of land would have suffer the same fate as the mansion.
The medium gave the family names of the spectres and pled the spectres to move on while the other expert who came along talked about supernatural power that the mother possessed. Because of her traits in sensing them out, it attracted the spectres to stay. In fact, the mother had a feeling that the soldier was protecting the family from the other vicious spirit.
Safe?
If the family thought the medium had settle the problem for them, they were DEADLY wrong. A cousin to the father got very interested in the issue and went to check up on the names provided by the medium. They were real people existed in the 1700s and were killed on the piece of land the house was allocated on.
But not only this... it was found out that every family who stayed in that house had a family member killed before they moved out...
The family was more than frightened by now. In the end, they found buyers who said that they were interested in the house BECAUSE of the haunting. (Crazy or what?) Before they left the house, the mother felt that someone talk to her. It was Nicholas the Soldier.
According to the show, he said, "Dont ever come back to this house ever again. Because after you leave this house, I will be leaving too and there will be no one to protect you."
...
What do you think?
Alright.. I think I am the nothing better to do fellow here.
