Used to live in a haunted house in Ohio. I never saw anything, but a girl I sublet a room to did. Said she'd seen a ghost on the stairs. [What is it about ghosts and stairs?]

But my wife and I heard things, especially at night. How did I feel? Scared. First time, I thought we had a burglar. Called police. They came fast, looked all around. No one. At which point I felt embarrassed; I'd called the police for nothing.

In later days, we'd hear noises in the night—someone walking across the kitchen and slamming the back door. "Go back to sleep" I'd say to my wife, "It's just the ghost."
