I dont know what it is about my house. The last people that lived here all died within the first year of living here. No one ever knew why. I heard that the same happened to the people before that too, and even before that. The neighbors wont even come near here. I thought this was all just crazy people imagining things, but on December 12 my wife died, and 3 days later my son died, then my daghter the day after that. Also, all of out pets died right around the same time. So, I am all alone now and I am worried about this. Why does everyone die here, and why am I still alive.
We moved here in July and everyone was happy. This is a beautiful house. Three story mansion, all brick. all oak woodwork and floors. Two bathrooms, beautiful fireplace, and much more. The place is in excellent condition. I bought the place for $5000, because everyone is afraid of it. That includes three and one half acres of land. When I moved here, the deed contains a long list of people, dating back to
1936 when it was built. The original owner left a complete list of things to do each year to maintain the house and property. He was even nice enough to list the four problems this house has, which I followed exactly as he listed. This is what they are. #1. The celler has a vent in the N.E. corner that clogs with sand. This must be cleaned yearly or the basement floor will get wet during heavy rains. #2. Where the main roof meets the front porch roof, there is a tin flashing that fills with leaves in fall, and this must be cleared or the water will back up and drip in the porch ceiling. #3. The well will freeze in winter, unless anti-freeze is added to the water. You must dump 10 gallons of anti-freeze in the well around the first of December. #4. The fireplace chimney must be covered in spring to keep birds from nesting in the flue.
I have done all these things exactly as he said, and the house is in perfect working order. It's just all these deaths that can not be explained. Someone told me it might be the water, but I cant see why people would die from bad water, they would just get an upset stomach. My wife told me she did not like the taste of the water just shortly before she died, and said the water was greenish color. I told her it was just the anti-freeze I put in there, and it was green colored, and probably made the water taste bad. I dont know what it tasted like because I dont ever drink water. I have never liked water and I only drink beer. I think it's just coincidense that all these people died, but others say this house is haunted and all sorts of other bad things about it.
After the family died, I thought about moving, but I will miss them here, or somewhere else, so I may as well stay here. Plus I like Alabama. I dont believe in ghosts and all of that nonsense. But I am worried that there migth be something in the walls or some mold or something that kills people. What could it be?
