MR. COOPER?
First of all, let me start by saying that my grandparents have informed me that a certain Mr. Cooper was
the gentleman that built and lived in the house my experience took place in. Perhaps he has stuck around to
make sure all of the house's owners take good care of it?
Anyhow, My experiences began in the old house that my
grandparents live in up in PA, when I was about three or
four. Now, this house has been said to be haunted since
before my grandparents moved in, which was about twenty-
five years ago. In fact, the house has been haunted for a
few hundred years. But I was young and didn't know this--
yet.
When they moved in, my grandparents had an extra room that
was too small to be a bedroom, but too big to be a closet.
They had no idea what to do with it until the kids came
along, at which time they transformed it into the perfect
little playroom. Since then, many a generation has played
in that room, not excluding me and one cousin (and best
friend) who is almost the same age as me.
One day I was playing contentedly in that little playroom
when all of the sudden all of the hair on the back of my
neck began to rise and my mind screamed "RUN!!!" I
would've done just that, but I knew that my father would've
made me come back and clean up my mess, whether I was
scared or not. So instead I threw the lego house I had
been slaving over for an hour into the nearest box and
scuffled out and down the stairs as fast as I could, trying
not to run as my child's mind told me that when you run,
things chase you.
That was the last time I ever, ever went into that room.
My cousin had the same experience about eight or ten months
later (she's eight months younger than me!!!), and that was
the last time she ever went in there as well. Our younger
cousins (all seven and up, now) do not go in there either.
To this day I wonder why we were all scared from that room
at that age.
Could it be that Mr. Cooper wanted to make his presence
known at a time he knew we would remember? Who knows. But
I have since learned to live peacefully with him and have
politely made it clear that I would like to be left alone.
I have more experiences that I would like to share with
you, but I would like to keep this short. Thank you for
sharing your time . ^_^
