After several minutes of it, enough to make everyone both a bit dizzy and frightened, she said in a loud voice, "That's ENOUGH." And the blinking stopped.Joanna Campbell Slanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01951637123269159053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7731159552335760887.post-73412172525004181772012-09-25T12:29:59.642-04:002012-09-25T12:29:59.642-04:00An alarm went off in my father's house where w...An alarm went off in my father's house where we were sleeping at the time he died in the hospital, Joanna.Linda O.

When challenged, she couldn't say why this particular photo out of 700 in total so moved her. Later, when cleaned and examined carefully, it turned out that the solider was, indeed, a Confederate boy in gray. Perhaps he didn't want to be numbered among his enemies!Joanna Campbell Slanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01951637123269159053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7731159552335760887.post-10052951646739705752012-09-25T08:41:04.386-04:002012-09-25T08:41:04.386-04:00I've had a few ghostly experiences in my life,...I've had a few ghostly experiences in my life, and so have some of my family and even ancestors.
