While I was at my buddies house (see previous blog) we had been visiting various alleged haunted sites (to investigate for next years Chamber of Commerce Ghost Walk).  After enjoy some pizza while watching the river traffic, we decided it was time to hit the sack.  He headed upstairs and I unfolded the futon.  The room I was in could best be described as the living room, three windows (that don't open) and the front door.

I crawled into bed and listens to the usual night noises an old house makes.  About 1 AM I woke up to the sound of one of the venetion blinds moving and making noise.  I woke up, decided it was my imagination, but got up checked for wind outside (none), turned off the ceiling fan and got my camera and set it on the table next to the bed.

I really don't sleep well on that futon, so I'm never in a deep sleep, about 2:30 AM I heard it again and saw the blind on the door moving and heard it clash against itself.  I grabbed the camera and started taking pictures around the room, laid back down and tried to go to sleep, again I heard the sound of aluminium blinds being moved, looked up and the blind on the door is moving again.  Having had enough I just said (outloud)  "OK I know your here, just let me get to sleep"  Nothing else the rest of the (short) night.

I got up about 7:30, fixed the coffee, and watched the river while downloading the pictures on my laptop.  All pictures were clean except one, that one had multiple orbs, all but two that I could dismiss as dust.  One of those I'm not sure of (didn't look like dust nor an insect) and the other was caught in a slight movement.

I went back in the house to try and replicate sound of the movement of the aluminium blinds, that's when I discovered two important things.  1.  The windows do not open and they are tight (no air movement) and the blinds are plastic, no way to duplicated the meltalic sound. 

My friend said he has never noticed anything (of course like me he's about as sensitive as a fence post when it come to "feeling" ghosts), so perhaps somebody from the Lochry Massacre we had visited earlier decided to follow us home (it's from 1781, Indians 100, White guys 0)
