Hi everyone....so here's the question.....Can ghosts follow you home? I could "dance around" the answer... but let me be blunt. The answer is YES. It is not common, but it CAN happen. Now, with that being said lets talk about it.
There are reports of individuals having a particular ghost or spirit follow them home. Some ghosts and spirits can attach themselves to objects, individuals, and or families. Some people have reported taking something from a site that is said to be haunted....lets say something as simple as a stone from a building and suddenly finding that they have "bad luck" or unusual "things" just start happening. Coincidence? Maybe or maybe not. Some people report purchasing an antique that has a ghost attached to it and it follows them home. A ghost is not bound to a certain location, only drawn there because it was of significance to them when they were living.
I believe that sometimes ghosts or spirits will attach themselves to a person or family because they have been angered in some way..... but I also believe that sometimes a ghost or spirit may follow you home because they like you. Sounds crazy? Well, think about it. Do you want to be around people that are nice to you? I think it is the same for spirits. Lets say you have a location that is said to be haunted by a little girl. Parents died tragically and she was left all alone and eventually dies herself. You may have "people" that want to come investigate for the sheer purpose of making fun of ghosts or spirits.....then you have someone "like you and I, the GOOD ghost hunters" (LOL) that truly care about what happened to the souls. So, what do we do....we talk as if we were talking to a child (no tauting) and we offer candy or we bring toys with us for the spirit to play with. This little lost soul has been lonely for so long and now someone wants to talk to her and play, she doesn't want you to leave. So, she "attaches" herself and follows you home where she can be with you. So, there you go....instant daughter! LOL Also, beware of buying "used" objects as the same principle may apply. Except, they may love the OBJECT and NOT you.
I get asked all the time, has you ever experienced someone or something following you home? The answer is YES!!!! Do I think it was a malevolent spirit? No. The things I was experienced did not make me feel threatened but more like....HEY PAY ATTENTION TO ME......I'M HERE!!! I give ghost tours down at a haunted bridge (Goatmans Bridge, Denton, Tx) and I communicate with a young 14 year old girl named Rebecca that died back in the mid 1800's. First, we have the same name so I think she relates to that. Second, I speak to her very respectful and tell her how happy I am to talk with her every time.
What was I experiencing? Well, for starters, EVERY SINGLE NIGHT FOR TWO WEEKS SOILD my tv would come on at 3am and the volume would be full blast and it would be all "staticy"!!! And anyone that is connected to cable knows when your cable goes out there is nothing on the tv but a blue screen. Every night I would get up and turn it off. At first, I thought it was something going wrong with the tv or the cable. I called and ask everyone what would cause that and everyone would tell me the same thing....It should NOT be doing that if it was going out. Finally, I unplugged the tv thinking that would do the trick.....NOPE.....still came on by itself full blast!!! Finally, one night when I couldn't take it anymore....I STOOD MY GROUND.....I turned it off after coming on at 3am and said out loud "OK. I know you are here. But this is MY house and I'm not moving. So here is the deal.....You can stay BUT I don't want you to turn the tv on again. And if you do, I will just get up and turn it off every time! So we can live here together but you can not turn on the tv." I swear....it has NEVER done it again.
Not only that...but the water in both the bathrooms would come on full blast by themselves, things would move from one place to another by themselves, alarms and other things would go off that shouldn't be going off and that had no batteries in them. I really think it was Rebecca. So I smudged the house and ask her to go back to the bridge and wait for me there. And the activity stopped.
Now, this doesn't mean ghosts are just waiting to hitch-a-ride home with you, so don't start to worry yet. But sometimes, you may "invite" them in by accident....say by using a Ouija Board. You may be trying to contact your departed loved one but that may NOT be who comes through. If SOMEONE else decidesd it likes, or can manipulate you , it may just stay.....and LETS BE CLEAR...the spirit that decides it wants to stay from a Ouija Board may not be very nice at all. So, this is nothing to play around with, so if you ARE going to use a Ouija Board be sure and take measures to protect yourself. And just for the record, I NEVER AND WILL NEVER USE A OUIJA BOARD!!! |
This is an old cemetery in Walnut Bend, Tx
An abandon cemetery with almost all children.

Look at the difference between the first and second
picture. The second one is when we started talking
to the children and asking them if they want to play?

This was many years back, I took a group
of girls for a birthday party. At first, they
were scared to death!!! But then they
relaxed and I think the "children" really liked it.

Looks like "the children" didn't want
the girls to go!

Lets talk about how to protect yourself from a spirit (good or bad) from attaching itself to you and following you home. Before and after you enter a location that you feel is haunted, say a prayer telling the spirits they are not allowed, or welcome to follow any of you home. This is a command! I take this very seriously, as we all have families, and friends that do not want a ghost to follow them home. I believe you will start to see this more and more on all the TV Paranormal shows. This protection prayer.
The metaphysical dangers of an investigation are real and should be taken seriously. If it were only the physical and emotional thing to worry about, then this field of study could be done by almost anyone....but that's not the case. Sometimes things we are looking for are there, and more often than not these things can and do follow us home at the end of the night. This is where the dangers come in.
I believe it is my duty to tell you while ghost hunting can be very exciting, scary, and mind blowing, there are dangers. Yes, anyone can grab a recorder, ask a question and get a response. And yes, if you do not know how to protect yourself, anyone can have their lives turned upside down by unseen forces. I cannot express enough how important it is, if you want to become an investigator or you want to get involved in the paranormal, that you go with a team that has years of experience and is fully aware of the dangers out there and how to conduct themselves professionally and, most of all, safely.
So, is it possible for a ghost to follow you home? Yes. But it is rare. Do I want you to stop investigating because of the chance that someone or something will follow me home...NO. Just take precautions and you should be fine.
Now, enough with all the serious stuff. For myself, personally, ghost hunting is one of the most rewarding and fun things I do. I love it with all my heart and will continue to research and look for answers in the field of paranormal. I look at it like a "sport" kinda........playing professional football lets say..... you have to watch out for the big, bad, muscle guy that is going to nail you on the field possibility breaking your bones. Well, when you ghost hunt you have to watch out for the "dead people"......the ones that like to play tricks on you or the ones that really want to cause harm. Oh well....I'm still "IN"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have a great week everyone and of course, I would love your feedback. And if you have had an experience with a spirit following you home, I would love to hear your story and if you willing possibly have you on my radio show Bridging the Paranormal to discuss your experience. Feel free to email me at becksghosthunters@yahoo.com.
Have a great week everyone!
