I spent most of my formative years in this Pearl,
Mississippi house. It holds so many memories
for me both good and bad. I cannot
believe it is being sold.
This house remains one of the most interesting places I have
ever lived. I will always remember lying
in bed and listening to the sound of people walk down the halls. It never scared me; it just was. I also remember seeing a woman walk down the
hallway and hearing voices in rooms where people were not. It was unnerving at times; but it was always
fun living in a haunted house. I
remember when I first heard my mom and grandma mention to me about the
spirits. I had never heard them speak of
such things… it actually surprised me; but let me know that It was not just me
that experienced it. The weirdest thing was when things would
move. You couldn’t expect anything to
stay in one place, it would inexplicably move to another part of the room or
another room in general. You just never
knew what would happen.
I can’t help but wonder if my mom is now counted among the
spirits that reside at 306 Pearl Drive.
She passed away in the living room sleeping in her bed. She slept in there because she was an amputee
and getting around was easier than going into and down the hallway.
I wonder if she made friends with the other
spirits in the house too. In life, she
never met a stranger… I doubt death would stop her.
