There is nothing like haunted house.
Stop believing bullshits.
All those rubbish doesn't exist.
Ghost and spirits only exists in your imaginations

I remember my former apartment lol, them no born any home appliances to work there be it new or tokunbo. Even landlord house no single bulb inside his apartment, we were the first people to put bulb in the staircase for more than 25 years. The day we packed in a voice said 3years, and we only stayed for 3 years. you will see wall geckos on ur wall if you try to kill it they disappear before ur very eyes, they don't run they disappear, An agreement was reached in the realm of the spirit that made us parked out, A manor
on white apparels with a sparkling white hair appeared and my landlord too appeared, the man on white told my landlord to allow us go that we are his people that he dare not harm us so my landlord bowed and packed all those wall gecko's and put in one bag and disappeared. After that encounter in less than 6 months we left the house to a better place, the new tenants that packed in there are crying every blessed day and laying curses on the agent that rented the apartment to them. If you dream u will see urself cemented in the wall,Omo if you cook any food the kind ants wey go enter ur food from no where ehn you must shed tears , thank God we are in a better place God be praised. The hunted house are always very cheap to lure people so they can kill or destroy them. Many of the tenants JAPA without carrying any property omo!

This experience is not mine. It's that of an Eckankar Clergy:

He went to a popular hotel in the South West. There was no room except for that particular room which they refused to give him. He came late and had no option.

After much pleading the receptionists let their management know and they got permission to let him use the room.

Drama started after he tried sleeping. So much drama and dragging with some non-physical people inside it. It was then he had to do a special exercise which was simply inviting the Spiritual Guardians or what Eckists call "ECK Masters" telling them he wants to sleep and needs help.

He had a good night and the next day, I forgot tue other details of what transpired but he got to connect with the daughter of the owner over another request or so.

They established some rapport and one day asked him about how he got to sleep in that room that day. He told her his experience and what he did and took the time to explain the terminologies and practice, in other words, let her know about his spiritual path.

It was then she decided to open up. That room is usually reserved for their late mum who visits and uses the room every Thursdays. No one can sleep in it. She said they gave him knowing he won't be able to sleep there and that he would run on his own accord that night.

That they usually dress the room in those days according to her request. She is particularly on the color of the sheets, and decorations.

Yes, during my student days here in the UK.

The children residential home company I worked for, got me to work for them in a location away from where I lived. To save the daily cost of shuttling from the workplace to my home which would have cost me about £26 daily and the hours. They had shortage of staff and needed me to work 5 days back to back during that winter time, they offered me to stay in one of their homes they were still setting up for business, with about 95% set up.

It was a 2 storey 5 bedroom townhouse, next to it is a care home for the elderly, I stayed all alone in that house...wetin I experience no get part 2!😂😂

Re: Have You Lived In A Haunted House? by SeriouslySense(m): 9:38pm On Apr 22, 2025
I dont know, all the houses i have stayed in have been okay, But i notice sometimes when i go to a new place, i dream bad dreams.

At least, i learned to pray if such happens. And it will be okay.


But i have experienced a haunted graveyard. late in the evening, i was returning home from school, and i was very young child, i was told the area is a graveyard, but it was a shortcut, and will save me time. I was alone, suddenly, i felt fear, and it seems like it was getting very dark, so the fear made me collasped grin grin grin. I tried to move but i could not, i stayed there for some seconds, contemplating if this was the end. I did not want the people at home to be worried that their child has gone missisng. At last, i I gathered more strength and i was able to stand up and walk away. cheesy cheesy cheesy.

Thank God for that. Jesus is able to save.

there was no point for the insult bro ....just leave him to his ignorance ...You won't blame him though since he hasn't had any experience of such....Maybe he's the type that only believes in something he's got a personal experience with....

I appreciate so much.

That nurse story and your hostel story of guiter playing at night is so scary!

About my hostel and cockroach, the number of cockroach normally in a home/house is not much comparing to our hostel. And at home, is not everytime cockroaches do come. But in the case of our hostel, every night!
When we spray the room dat evening, they won't come, but if you did not spray insecticide, they must come and in large numbers, you can't even find sleep, till you have killed alot!
Tell me, is it every night someone will be using insecticide for cockroach!
It was damn crazy!
It means there's lots of scrap food easily available to the roaches...so they come out in their numbers to feast. Do the residents dispose of their scraps in garbage bins?....or they be leaving scrap foods about? Cockroaches multiply pretty fast and are pretty rough. If you spray every night... you will be doing more harm to yourself than the roaches ...breathing in all the carcinogens and later in life be wondering how you contracted cancer. If you tried spraying and listening ... from the first burst of spray..you will hear the roaches scampering behind walls or whenever they are ...they know what the spray is for and they run for safety...go deeper behind the wall... under the floor boards ....wherever....the spray will not get to them. When the air is clear...they troop out... and you be swearing it must be juju because they all supposed to be dead . If you really need to reduce or get rid of roaches...you need to poison them. There are roach baits.... the roach eats it...goes back to the nest...then dies. Roaches eat their dead mates ...and so the poison kills a whole lot of them as they keep eating the poisoned ones. When sprayed...they die on the spot ..if the spray gets them....no chain reaction .

Lmao. Stop watching too much Nollywood movies.
A simple change of location can change one's perspective on their endeavors. Why do people travel to a new city and start prospering in the same business?
Nigerians would rather blame others for their misfortune than seek a viable solution.
Shows the IQ of an average Nigerian.
If your business isn't working, it's either your landlord, relatives or envious friends lol.

A person with poor financial discipline will blame an innocent person for ruining his business. Someone that doesn't want to innovate, will point fingers at others for stealing his *star*.

A big businessman dominating a niche chose to continue using Zenith bank as payment method while other people in his line of business innovated, got websites, had an active online presence, and chose opay and moniepoint as methods of receiving payments.
In time, the business of the first guy stalled, he was no longer making sales like he used to, and instead of jumping on the train with the other people, he accused them of using juju to cripple his business. This is one of the many instances happening everyday.

You have no idea what a change of environment can do to your state of mind as a whole. If you're in the right state of mind, everything else falls in place.
Why do you think people leave the ghetto to middle income neighborhood once they start making it?

People need to take responsibility for their misfortune instead of pointing fingers at others my guy.

You are a believer and you don't believe spirituality exist. So what then is being said about a Man having a spirit, soul and body? If life's not spiritual then why do we have spirit? You are a mortal being so how come you know so much that spirit doesn't exist while you are living in a body that wasn't made by you. What you should first ask is how you were formed?

You're formed when your dad mated with your mum and out of billions of sperms released, one managed to fertilize the egg. 9 months later, you were born.

In the heart of Ebute Metta, where the railway hums like a restless ghost and the air carries the scent of rust and rain, there stood a house at the very end of Olonode Street. Hidden behind a rusted iron gate and a compound of overgrown ewa agoyin plants, it was known only as Ile Olori Buruku—the House of Misfortune.

Children crossed the street rather than walk past it. Agberos avoided its fence. Even the okada riders, fearless and swift, refused fares that stopped anywhere near its cracked driveway.

But Tunde didn’t believe in ghost stories. He had returned from the UK, confident and disillusioned, seeking cheap property to turn into co-living apartments. The old colonial mansion, three floors high with a sagging balcony and blood-red shutters, was perfect—price slashed to a quarter of its value. “Nobody go tell you the real reason,” the agent had muttered under his breath. “Dem say the house dey hear and dey answer.”

Tunde laughed then. But not the night he moved in.

That first night, the house seemed to breathe. The ceiling fan turned on by itself. A transistor radio—disconnected and broken—crackled with whispers in Yoruba, twisted and ancient. Somewhere above, footsteps paced slowly, deliberately, on a floor he hadn’t stepped on yet.

By 3:07 a.m., Tunde was wide awake. He heard a knock—three times—on his bedroom door. He opened it, expecting no one. But there was a trail of white sand leading down the hallway, and at the end of it, a woman in iro and buba, her back to him, standing still.

“Hello?” he asked, voice cracking.

She turned—but her face was missing, replaced by a blank stretch of skin where eyes and mouth should have been.

The next morning, Tunde went to Makoko to speak with an old babalawo who had once lived near Olonode. The man sighed, deep and heavy.

“You have entered a house that remembers sorrow,” he said. “That place once belonged to a slave merchant who betrayed his own blood for wealth. Every generation, the house feeds on pride—especially those who laugh at spirits.”

Tunde tried to leave.

But every okada that tried to take him away from the house broke down at the gate. Buses swerved. Ubers disappeared off the app. Even walking made no difference—he’d loop the block only to find himself back at the front gate again, like the neighborhood was folding around him.

By the third week, neighbors said they could hear him at night—talking to someone. No one ever saw who. And eventually, no one saw him.

But if you pass Olonode Street today—especially just before dawn—look up. One of the top floor windows will be lit. A figure stands there, silhouetted against a flickering bulb.

And if you look too long, the window might blink.

Says a mortal who doesn't know how his brain and other parts of his body was formed. Who told you after your own dad mated your mom millions of sperm etc formed you. LMAO. it was a mortal scientist man like you that said it. What goes on the spiritual realm you do not know so stop saying what a basic human with a little phenomena knowledge will say. You can't even name all the countries of the world off hand but you believe spirituality doesn't exist. Oga na where your knowledge reach e stop. Stop talking as if you know it all.
