@@gardensofthegods im a believer too but ive only had 1 place that i worked at that was freaky haunted but that building had a seedy history and i kind of got use to the spirits that walked the halls there as it was the alive people i worked with where much more concerning. But on the other hand ive had 3 other human gosht encounters and i dont know why i seem to see them but ive seen many dead pets of other peoples and 1 of my own, cats mainly. I personally think some people are just more open to seeing them and some people belive so strongly that ghosts dont exist that they unconsciously shut off that part of our ancestral humanity that they either would never believe it even if its in their faces or only belive it because it was right in their faces. Ie: a more disruptive presence. And every other encounter they probably did not realize it was not of this realm, kind of like the cats. They would just think they seen an alive cat and that was that. I only knew i seen cats because in my frist encounter that was pointed out that i just had an encounter was for example, i walked out of my room and as i was coming out of the door way to run to the toilet, 1 of the cats got under foot trying to smooch up my legs as cats do but i had to go, did not think much of it at first, i thought the silver tabby was one of our cats that had snuck in to escape the cold but from the bathroom i could see both of our cats asleep on the bonnet of my car like 20 seconds later. This was at my ex husband's grandmother's house where we where staying while our house was getting built and i asked her did she either let nibbles or scruffy in or our just now, Nope but she was quick to say that she see's tommy too but no one believes her, you just met a big silver tabby in the hall or kitchen yeah? Well he died 20+ years ago and you will see him hanging around there quite a bit, well if he likes you, you will have run ins with him. He must like you!. thats just 1 encounter. I met tommy and after that would see him kind of in my periphery in the hall and kitchen. It was not like i was getting couch cuddles. Mind you her son and grand son thought she was mad but i almost stood on her dead cat that she actually showed me photos of abd that was tommy ,so she cant be that bonkers...lol

Scott, this was fantastic. Thanks, for sharing. Just read your information to the video. Made me laugh. Your content far exceeds many I've seen on YT. Love the clothing of the 40's especially the women's. If I win the lottery or inherit a lot of money, I'd love to hire you to do a video of my hometown of Buckeye Lake, Ohio. There's a lot of history especially because of the Amusement Park & it's proximity to Columbus. I personally have a lot of memories at the Roller Skating Rink & the Crystal Pool. Also, my Grandparents owned a restaurant on the water front which was adjacent to the Pool & Crystal Ballroom. Ballroom was very popular during the Big Band Era. Quite a few celebrities were at the park. It was similar to a smaller version of Coney Island. You'd be a perfect fit to do a video. What I've seen on YT isn't that good. What made me think of the park was the postcards you shared. I've seen those of Buckeye Lake. Doing this type of content & obviously writing is definitely your calling. I'll keep you posted on the inheritance ;)
