haunted stuff and history of witchcraft in nanaimo

[brindle]

We moved to a place below Benson @2007. It was in the area mentioned in prior posts.

Strange things happening there. I was the only one to experience the water taps 'on' in the bathroom. We were once awaked to 'children laughing/playing'; yet, our babies were 'co-sleeping' next 2 us!!!

I wish I took notes of the 'pentograms/messages' on each of the room's entrances--was that a protection or a warning??The landlords painted it over soon after moving in. I guess you can only erase evidence, not energy.

Could say more, wouldn't want 2 ruin it 4 them^.

For anyone who was previously (years ago) talking about the cabins on mt. benson, and anyone whos reading this now and wondering, they were built by members of the Morgan family over the past hundred years, a few exist at least, and one was burnt down in a fire a good 20 years ago.

If anyone has been there and has photos, please post!

I was thinking the same thing that they must believe god exists too, which I thought was pretty funny. I know there are satanists around, not sure how legit they are a far as what they do, or where they go. but there are probably more around than you'd think. what does anybody think of this wiccan or satanic, stumbled across it yesterday looked like a track around the middle like someone had been walking around and around it.
all the sand had been brought in, might be nothing but got a weird vibe from it.

there was a rave in this location Aug 2009. Ravers set up this firepit (i was there but sleeping in a tent when this was done)

I just saw a ghost in my backyard. I live on Rosstown (for another week). it was a plump girl that was dressed in complete 70s clothes and hair.. just standing there in the middle of our backyard, her eyes were so empty and sad and not alive (really hard to explain how that looks) and then was gone as quick as she arrived. she was solid but vanished right before my eyes. really neat experience and a very surreal feeling of her presence. I just thought I'd share.

The first blogger in Nanaimo lived there next to the orange house on the railtracks at Albert Street between there and the Grocery Store that used to JJ's.

The lady that wrote and left the notes in trees and on the fence survived her husband and had a few strokes and heart attacks before she died. She was from Eastern Europe (Ukraine, Poland) and was actually quite nice although a bit eccentric. She offered room and board to women at her house although she never had any living there that I know of.

I lived almost next door to her for a few years and there were never any graves in the backyard of people although there may have been a few cats buried there. She was not a witch, just your average person without regular family visits and no real friends to be around to converse with. Too bad she did not survive to the computer age, where she could have blogged away.

Her name was Mrs. Wolanski. She was very shy. I grew up in this neighborhood and she walked by my house everyday running her errands. My sister and I would always say hello and she would just smile and look down and keep walking. But one time she did say hello back.

She wasn't a witch, but there was a rumour that she was a holocaust survivor.

My family has some of her notes as well.
