Hell House: Radio Ghost

There were many individual spirits in Hell House that I got to know over time. At first it confused me why there were ghosts in a house that had never had any residents other than our family. No deaths. I have come to learn now that all the spirits of the house were inhuman in some manner. Some kind, some not so much. The first of these spirits that I met, I lovingly named Radio Ghost.

Radio Ghost was a poltergeist who enjoyed making his presence known by turning on radios or the TV very loudly. At first he haunted my mother, and later, me. The first time I was aware of him was a night in 2003. It was a school night in the spring. For my birthday my parents got me a nice stereo. Just as I fell asleep, it turned on full blast. Scared the shit out of me. Had to always keep any noise making electronic unplugged at night in that house.

Radio Ghost had a very specific vibration. He felt playful in a way. I noticed, when I felt sick or sad there would always be a butt print in the bed like someone was sitting there. I once asked him to stand up if he was Radio Ghost. The print lifted.

Radio Ghost ended up being my friend through the whole time I lived there. He assisted me in keeping my room a safe space from the other less kind spirits of the house. I allowed him to view the room as his in the spiritual plane while sharing physical space with me, in turn for him keeping the others out. In 2009 when we lost the house I had a tearful goodbye with Radio Ghost that ended with my phone randomly playing a song. I can’t remember what song it was, but it was a sappy love song about two lover’s parting. I cried super hard. Radio Ghost never stepped out of the house, I never felt his vibrations anywhere but inside, so I sadly feel he is a friend of the past. I would love the chance, however, to visit with him again.
