"The Evil in Kansas"
Part 1
My name is Mary, and I've been trying to find a place to share my story, where people listened, before starting in with their opinions about their theories and how they and those opinions are the only "right ones, and the questions of, why didn't I, or the inevitable, what you should have done.....
So hopefully, all will read the entirety and not get all, "know it all", with me.
Not all hauntings are like in the movies or edited for drama t.v. series like"Ghost Hunters". This really did happen, and still follows my daughter, as well as myself today. It's a long story, so get comfy..
First, you need to know a little about myself, to understand what I should have known something was off with the house and property I'm writing about, and the effects that continued even after moving over 1000 Miles away.
As a small child, I could see and hear spirits, though as I aged I've lost the ability to see them for the most part I do still hear them occasionally. My father believed in Native American beliefs, my mother Jewish. I hadn't been baptized, but had attended several Christian churches and Catholic, before I moved to Arizona when I was 10. My experiences with fairies and spirits and magical beings as well as going to church as a child, attending several different types of Christian Theons, gave me freedom of choice with a better understanding of what it was I was looking for. Even though very young, I was interested in religion and finding my own path. Before the age of 15,I had already began my journey into learning about religions and what path I wanted to choose. I've been a pagan practitioner for about 34 years.
This does not mean I watched "The Craft" 34 times. It means I've studied and practices several different forms and histories within Paganism, including; Druidism, Shamanism, Celtic Witchcraft, Edwardian Wicca, Norse Heathenism, And Norse Vulva practices. On the Arthurian Christianity side, I've studied Catholicism, Arthurian Christianity, and Demonology. I've also studied Jewish Law, and some of the Kabala.
I've lived in three residually haunted homes since I was born, and I'm empathetic to boot. You'd think I would have gotten some inkling of what was lingering,...
