Sandy had an experience with a Ghost near Greenville, South Carolina, U.S.A. in 1961. Here is her story:

One summer evening when I was about 7 or 8, my brothers and I were in our living room when a thunderstorm began outside and the power went out. A few minutes later we began to hear noises coming from the kitchen. The noises sounded like cabinet doors opening and slamming shut, pots and pans hitting the cabinets and other things banging around. We were all petrified, but my brother crawled to my parents' bedroom and got my dad. He told my dad what was happening and my dad came out and went to the kitchen with a flashlight. As he approached the kitchen, the doors of the kitchen began to open and slam shut. He went into the kitchen and didn't see anything or anyone. Once the lights came back on, we inspected the kitchen. Everything seemed normal at first, but we soon realized that all the pots, pans and plates were in the wrong places. It was like someone had moved everything around. I'm not sure if it was a ghost, but we could never find any other explanation for what happened that night.
