“We had put a keyed dead bolt-lock on the front door. After it was shut and locked, you’d hear a click and you’d see the latch turn and the dead bolt open. The door would open. YES, you could stand there and watch that door opening by itself.”

The Hammond family said good-bye to the exorcist, assured they wouldn’t hear from their ghost for a long time. As they sat down to eat, “all of a sudden a terrible racket started upstairs, doors slamming, dresser drawers being jerked open and shut, loud stamping on each stair step—the loudest we’d ever heard. We could see the stairs from where we sat and no one was there. (She) was irate because the mediums had been there. It was terrifying then, and it still is.”

These and more bizarre encounters, told by the people who experienced them, happened not on ghost hunts but during their daily routines at home and at work—sometimes at night but more often in broad daylight.

Joanne Duke Gamblee was a former journalist and freelance writer who lived in Troy, Ohio. Her focus was to reveal how common supernatural encounters occurred and how many authorities believed they happened at a deeper level of consciousness.
