    The horrible man who resembled a demon (I'll have to take the observer's word for that, I've never seen a demon) would give me serious pause. However, I've seen & communicated with dead people most of my life. Except for one angry spirit, that once gave me a shove (we did come to an understanding) all of my interactions with spirits have been either passive or positive. I share my current, property with the spirits of the original homesteaders: we coexist quite comfortably. Waking up to the smell of if baking wirh cinnamon from years ago: delightful.
    Maybe because I've never had servants to coddle, or require to greet new arrivals makes a difference. But when I hear a home is haunted, my 1st reaction is not to flee.

    Most interesting, how each sister's account verified the other. I would have liked to know what prompted their letters -- a family friend asked? Had this person also been in the house or had she heard of it? The house sounds very damp, but excessive moisture, indigestion, and neuralgia do not produce hallucinations. I wonder why the eldest sister had neuralgia and if getting out of that damp house helped? Sir Aurthur Conan Doyle believed in ghosts and now I understand why.
