I am divorced and my children live with their father. I see them everyday at their dad's house. My ex-husband sees ghosts in his house and has seen objects move around. He has also experienced some type of spirit move through him during a time when he was feeling very hopeless and unhappy. He lives in a house built in 1860. This house has gone through many changes through the years with remodeling and room additions.

He has seen a woman at the bottom of the stairs dressed in 1920's apparel. My son also saw her when he was 9 years old. She was asking if Mary Beasley was at home. My ex told her there was no Mary Beasley and the spirit then vanished.

Before we bought the house (we were married at the time), we were told it was haunted. The prior residents of the house told us that they could hear a baby crying, have seen a soldier, and could on occassion smell bacon cooking.
The lady who lived there before us told us that her 3 year old daughter would play with an imaginary friend named Mary.

The latest apparition my ex has seen was a couple days ago. He was playing with our 12 year old son. My 12 year old has multiple disabilities and is extremely challenging to take care of. We have been thinking of turning custody of him over to our state because we cannot afford all of the special care and therapuetic services he needs. He recently lost funding from the state to pay for his care and services. I had heard that ghosts appear to comfort us if we are grieving or to deliver a message/information. My ex saw the face of a 25 year old man with dark hair hover over my son's face for a few seconds and then vanish. We don't know what this means. Is it related to our dilemma of caring for our son?

I also don't understand why I don't see the ghosts. I hear noises once in a while. I hear someone calling out Mommy sometimes. I hear babies crying once in a while. But I never see them. Do they only appear to certain people?

How can I make myself open enough for them to appear to me?

You might not see the ghots because you don't live in the house. Did you say you visit the house daily? I heard many stories that people see ghosts in there house and when guests come they don't. You would be called a guest because you don't live there. This is pretty scary tho!

I feel the voices you hear are your sub conscious because you and your ex have a very emotional decision ahead of you, now to talk with the spirits you see, you could try and spend the night at his home, and meditate to see if you can connect, good luck
