Summary

Ever tried reasoning with a housemate who doesn’t actually pay rent—because, well, he’s a six-foot-tall shadow man from the 1920s? In this chilling tale from Real Ghost Stories Online, one tenant tries every trick in the haunted handbook to keep the peace in her top-floor apartment. Spoiler alert: politeness doesn’t stop old-timey music from blasting overhead or pictures from elegantly leaping off the wall. The moral of the story? Sometimes even the most gracious “please and thank you” just tickles a mischievous phantom right out of his hush-hush routine

One of the most common things that we hear about doing when you have a spirit or an entity in your home that you want to make the activity slow down or stop is to do just as you would do with a human being that is acting out or annoying you or causing some sort of issue,

0:45.8

you know, if you just didn't do that, because it just gets on my nerves.

0:48.6

And most sane people will be like, okay, no problem.

0:52.4

I get you.

0:54.9

And quite often that works with ghosts. I know it sounds silly. It sounded ridiculous to me the first

1:00.4

time I heard it. But over the years of doing the show, that if I had to say one method works best,

1:08.4

that would likely be it.

It just shows the spectrum of all the possibilities that can happen.

When you tell a spirit to knock it off take a listen i'm 23 years old i've never really been scared in my life until recently. I moved into an old apartment building that was built around 1920 until last year. I did not live alone and had not

really seen anything. I would say that it started out just odd things happening here and there. I started

out on the first floor, nothing really happened, the next year I lived on the third floor. Still,

I would not have believed it at that point that my fate would be changed. On January 07,
