I am scheduled to meet my realtor to put an offer on a sweet house tonight.
Just found out from a guy in that neighborhood that the last guy died in the shower(realtor said that the house was old people dying free).
Also, his wife had an entire huge ass room filled floor to ceiling with those old creepy collectible dolls.
I have seen way too many Tales From the Crypt that start this way.
I mean, sure Halloween will be legit, but I would be getting dead guy on my feet every time I shower.
:ohno:
-
sounds like you'll have some nosy neighbors.
-
yeah, the neighbors sound like deal-breakers
-
Time to talk their price down.
-
I'm getting ready to buy my grandfathers old house, watched him take his last breath(cancer, not some weird crime where I saw him killed) in what will soon be my bedroom.
Doesnt bug me at all but I havent mentioned to my roomate or my gf that my gpa died in the house...

Pres of the HOA.

Definitely my first thought in all of this.
Second is what to do when my daughter is levitating above her bed? :dunno:

Learn to discipline your goddam kids, would be my answer.

Was the shower, not the toilet.
-
I've never had dealings with an HOA, but the whole concept of it seems like it would attract nosy people.
-
I don't think the HOA wants you there
-
Btwn the HOA and the angry ghost of the estate that I am about to lowball, maybe it isn't a good idea.
UPDATE: I have decided that I am going to ask for a pre-emptive exorcism as a condition to my offer.
-

If they accept your lowball offer, I would go ahead and move in. Otherwise, I would just find a different neighborhood. Ghosts do not exist, CNS Casey.

Not after the exorcism they won't.
We are on the same page

Should probably bring in some Native American bones and bury them in the basement.

I would bury them in the nosy neighbors' yard. Then when they come by not minding their own business, I would mention hearing strange sounds in their back yard last night.
-
I heard somewhere that the realtor has to disclose if someone died in the house in the past X years. May of been a random tv show though so it could be complete bullshit

I actually looked that up today. It is diff state to state, but in most states, that is only the case if the house caused the death(electrical mishap or something).
-
I'd guess a ghost scared the hell out of the old man that died in the tub. I mean, is that the ghost or the house's fault?

All depends on where the Native American bones were buried the first go round....would be my guess.

Was the shower the cause of death? If so, lowball city :dance:

Yeah, I guess you'd have to find the bones before you could make a ruling.

This was a really good answer.

If you do move in, let's have a goEMAW seance and PI the ghost right out of there.

Hey ghosts, :comeatme:

If you guys really saw a ghost you'd run out of there like the three stooges at the end of all those old shorts

Update: lowballed the their faces off. Waiting to hear back. My realtor broke some fancy figurine while there...or that's what she said. I suppose the ghost could have flung it at her head upon delivering the offer. Surely she would have told me if this is how it went down.

can't wait for the awesome neighbor stories updates!

We should get CNS Casey's neighbors to post!
-
Potential neighbors....
Still working the deal. Nothing is set yet.
-
Does the potential new home have a spot for the CNS Casey outdoor rec room? Might become a higher priority with the possibility of a haunting.

Do you have any idea how many ghosts I have tough guy'd? A crap ton.
-

Definitely.
-
do you have a nice neighborhood pool?
-
No pool. Plenty of room to put one in the back yard though. I am thinking since the guy died in the shower that a pool would be safe. I mean, if he couldn't handle water in life, he probs can't in death, right?
The last thing I need is some ghost dunking me when trying to tan.
Maybe I should put some sort of contingency in the contract if we get it :dunno:
-
don't enter a HOA without a pool IMO.
-
The solution is obvious. I can lead you to water but....

plus if he haunts the showers you could always bathe in the pool

Shower at the airport.

Been checking this thread to see if CNS Casey heard back on the offer, getting nervous you guys. :ohno: :pray:

True story: did not believe in ghosts until I saw one last year, now I am a full believer. Ghosts are real man.
Don't buy this house.
-
I figure ghosts are probably like regular folks. Some are good, so are bad. Some of them are probably cool to hang out with, most are probably douchebags. What if this particular ghost is a really good dude amd would have made a great neighbor if he only knew how to swim? Are you willing to risk that?
-

You should explain. I mean, I don't mind seeing ghosts, I just don't want the shower to clog up every time he re-enacts his death and stuff. Know what I mean?

while at work one night, was taking care of an old lady that was complaining of chest pain. she was talking to an old man that I figured to be her husband, seemed like a nice old man. he gave me some information about her. after talking to the lady some more, I turned back around to talk to him, and he was gone. I figured he went to get some things for her to take to the hospital.
then, this lady's middle-aged son walks in the room, I ask him if the old man "bob" went to get her things. he looks at me real weird and says that his dad, named bob, died about 10 years ago, and no one else lived in the house. creeped the eff out of me.
on the way out of the house I saw a picture of the old lady and her dead husband bob, the man I saw was definitely him.
I'm not saying the ghost was a mean guy or anything, but up until that point I had never thought of ghosts as being real. now that I know they are real, I'm sure there are mean ghosts out there and I want nothing to do with them.
-
Yeah, even though that old guy ghost seemed like a nice dude, I bet having him around all the time would get annoying. Especially if his preferred haunt was my bathroom. I like to take care of some business in the bathroom on occassion and an old man would really cramp my style.

Just like people, a solid PI'ing gets them to leave.
-
What if the ghost is an elite PI'er in his own right? I bet getting PI'd by a dead dude would be rough man.
-
Bob sounds like a very useful ghost. The guy who died in the house in my OP was really good at keeping his garage clean and his riding lawnmower all extra spiffy. Think it is reasonable that I would introduce my self, tell him whats up, assign him the garage, and expect him to do oil changes and stuff while I am cooking dinner or something?

I suppose that is possible. still, what if there are some mean ghosts hangin around that see old man ghost being helpful in the garage? then they might come in and make fun of him for being such a ghost pussy. then they'll take over the house and eff with your stuff all the time, also they might make your kids levitate or make their heads spin around or something.
just pointing out the possibilities here.

Is this your Realtor?

-
No, but the seller's realtor looked like that when we told him our initial offer.
-
Yeah, if Bob befriends a neighbor boy and then picks a fight with an Asian gang, you may find yourself in quite a pickle.
-
just to be clear, Bob is my ghost friend, not CNS's. it is possible that bob and CNS's old man ghost are friends though, I don't know the rules on these kinds of things.
-
If CNS' ghost is buddies with Bob, he's probably a good guy. Seems like CNS has his answer. You're welcome.

UPDATE: had the inspection this week. Immediately after the seller's realtor told me that there were actually three deaths associated with the house within a span of a few months. :horrorsurprise:
Oh, also, one of the shower heads has to be replaced. :ohno:
Not good guys......

welp

JFC, is this dump on Elm Street? Are you in Amityville?
Your lowball wasn't a lowball at all.

Guys, it's fine. I mean, I am pretty sure I can replace the shower head myself.
-
but can you replace your soul?
-

I don't know. After the shower head, I should have some teflon tape left over. :dunno:
-
better put tape on your wife's mouth so when grandpa ghost comes walking through the bedroom pissed because you changed his shower head her screaming won't wake you up.

That house has sweet lot with direct ocean access, I would buy it and just live on a boat; I am pretty sure ghosts don't swim
-
I would like to come to your house on Halloween though. Please pm me address.

Trick a priest into blessing the house. (Dont say anything about the plethora of ghosts living there.) If all goes well, buy the house and get used to hearing ghost noises.
