was it a ghost ?

since its oct. and halloween is upon us thought i would share my personal ghost story anyone else got one ?

when i was 19 i went to work at a temp agency at the local nuclear plant. i was given the job of issuing office supplies. (much like working at the school bookstore.) the supply store was located in one of the buildings around the reactors known as of all things " the solar building". since my first day on the job i heard that this building was haunted, being 19 and not having to many cares i really never gave it a second thought and blew any idea of ghost off. one day i was seated at my desk writing up a supply order, the door to the office was cut in half and had a counter on top. something caught my eye and as i looked up and an older man was standing in front of the counter ,he was dressed in blue overalls. i said hello to the man and i ask if i could help him, he never spoke a word a starred at me blankly and slowly walked away. i thought to myself how rude he was and went back to making my order out. shortly there after i found a more permanent job and left the nuclear plant. after 4 years i had started my own business and was looking for some help when one day i ran across an old friend from the nuclear plant, her name is diane she told me she had been layed off and was looking for work so knowing her work ethic and personality i hired her. diane and i sat and had lunch together one day as we relived memories from the plant, she ask me if i had ever been visited by Mr. Jones when i worked in the solar building. i ask her who he was ? and she responded with ...he is the ghost there, she said he was an older man who has on blue overalls and he fell to his death when the building was being constructed in the 70's. i think my mouth hit the floor because she just had described the man at the counter who i thought was so rude from years before. her description matched him to a "T" she explained to me that those blue overalls havent been issued to the workers since the early 70"s and that Mr. Jones has made numerous appearances in the building and she personally had been vistited by him as well.

Re: was it a ghost ?

It's kinda like the "bloody Mary" theory. If I say it more than once it may come back and that fear is enough to not think about.

Re: was it a ghost ?

Ok I’ll share… We live in a house that was built in 1900. we are in the process of restoring it. (I will never do it again) Well anyway when we painted the dinning room walls a pair of little handprints (as of a 2 year old.) appeared in the wet pant. Oh my kids at the time 14 & 16 so the handprints would not belong to them. About 4 months latter a friend was visiting and asked me who I know with little kids when I said nobody, why? She pointed to my glass door and on it were 2 little hand prints. I know that there is a logical explanation; I just have not found it yet.
