openozy Posted March 14, 2019 #2 Share Posted March 14, 2019 I think you imagined the eyes.Why would a mother tell a 7year old about a suicide,seeing you weren't living with her she sounds like an unfit parent to me.Your imagination and the story backing it is why you believe you saw something and has magnified over time. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nnicolette Posted March 14, 2019 #3 Share Posted March 14, 2019 That was probably an animal in there. If it was dark and any light shone in it tends to reflect off the retina and make animals eyes look glowing red in the dark. Do you think maybe there was a cat/mouse or something hiding back there? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the13bats Posted March 14, 2019 #4 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Im right there combining both what ooenozy and nnicolette have said, I will add the whole red eyes was a amityville thing, "piggy" in the window, made up of course, Red eyes always tell me fake or real prosaic explanation, because basically all animals have eye glow...think about red eye in pictures. Think about it, a person hangs themselves and years later little girls playing see red eyes, why? the ghost of a hung person leaves behind red eye glow? I dont know what you saw if you saw anything but of possibilities ghost is not on my list but george will likely give you a 94% likely paranormal experence. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But ozy, the mother didn't tell her until years later: the years went on we moved out and I moved in with my mother and I told her about the eyes she told me that in that closet a man hung himself in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonman Posted March 14, 2019 #7 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Childhood memories are notorious for playing tricks on your brain. It was likely nothing more than a reflection, but you'll never know for sure anyway so there's no point in dwelling on it and making yourself worry about nothing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think something scared her,could of been a rat or a reflection and the suicide story(which was probably fabricated) cemented and exaggerated the whole thing.There's usually a good reason mothers are estranged from their kids. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My main point: Why are you trying so hard to discredit this particular story when you have claimed paranormal experiences yourself? I can see a ration of caution towards any story from a stranger but this seems like you are creating your own version of the events and running with it. Why?

the13bats Posted March 16, 2019 #16 Share Posted March 16, 2019 (edited) Piney, a fellow just denounced most creatures have red eye shine then when he realized how ridiculous he sounded he back pedaled saying that some paranormal whatever is more likely the explanation for red eye shine than the zillion other things that could have made red reflections. But hes the open minded one. So yeah saver it.... Edited March 16, 2019 by the13bats 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some parents just baffle me. No matter what age you were when she told you, she should not have done so. On 14/03/2019 at 3:02 AM, South main said: and I moved in with my mother Also if you moved in with your mother, does that mean she never lived in the house? So how would she know about any hanging? If you want to find out about any deaths in that house try the local police station or the local newspaper archives. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
