so basically we moved into the flat in feb 2011. Its a care home from WW2 thats been split into 5 flats. we already knew this but decided to go with the flat anyway.
After a few weeks i got talking to the neighbours as i hadnt heard/seen anything, a few said they have a man walking round their house. Others said theyve seen nothing. etc etc.
the people who live in the other 4 flats havnt seen anything but hear creaks etc.
so about July 2011 he made his 1st appearance by slamming a door in my face. i said 'im not here to hurt you, its your home as much as it is mine but please dont scare me. And dont show your self to my daughter or i will have to ask you to leave'..
from then on he was nice.. ide get up in the morning & the kettle would be hot so i could make a cuppa. he would move the odd thing around but nothing major.
but this last week hes been flickering the light switches on & off at stupid times of the night, crashing about & stomping around waking us both up.. it doesnt scare me (surely he would of done something by now if he wanted us out?) but its annoying as neither LO or i are getting much sleep
he keeps moving stuff that LO cannot possibly reach at all to do it.
ive asked him to stop and he hasnt/wont..
im also sure LO has seen him.. sometimes she will point to the doorways & say theres that man mummy. Or she chats in bed about guns & stuff but then when i ask who shes talking to she says its grandad (it could be my grandad as he was in WW2 but no where near this area & she doesnt know what he looked like)..
does anyone have any advise?
i dont want to upset him but it does need to stop.
