THE STORY

Reported Haunting

Seances and Ouija board use was prevalent with one home owner that lived here and brought about some odd, unexplained occurrences including a time when a Maury Povich show was on TV about Ouija boards, that would not turn off of any television sets in the house.

Seances and Ouija board use was prevalent with one home owner that lived here and brought about some odd, unexplained occurrences including a time when a Maury Povich show was on TV about Ouija boards, that would not turn off of any television sets in the house. Another was a daughter of a friend that was sassing off to her mother in the house and then got hit very hard upside the head by an unseen force and had to go to the hospital, it is told. There is a large closet upstairs, that some older Jonesboro residents remember playing in as children. One lady recalls she would never play in this closet. “There was something about it that I didn’t like”, she says. Others have similar stories about the same closet. During the board use there were two spirits that identified themselves. One was Bobby and another Andrew. Records show a Bobby passed away and is buried in a neighboring cemetery. There is no record of any Andrew. There are accounts of doors opening and closing, a music harp that plays by itself, cold drafts of movement in upstairs bedrooms and hallway. The most disturbing was sight of a hooded figure moving a wardrobe across the room in the middle of the night after furniture had been re arranged earlier that day.
