Being haunted is hard, but break ups are harder.
Only in the world of the paranormal and the just plain weird would such events collide but that is just what they did when a woman in Rock Hill, South Carolina discovered that she did not have a ghost in her house, but rather her ex-boyfriend who had kept himself hidden in her house’s attic for two weeks.
The woman, who was only identified as ‘Tracy,’ said that she felt that lately something “just ain’t right” and even wondered if “there was some poltergeist stuff going on.”
Tracy, who lives in the house with her five children, grew even more concerned at about two-thirty A.M. on Saturday the Eighth when she heard a bang up above her in the attic and nails began to fall from the structure of her home.
This when she thought there might be some paranormal activity afoot, but it ends up it was an ex she broke up with twelve years ago, who after getting out of prison in July decide that Tracy’s attic was the right place to be.
The attic was filled with containers of feces and urine, he had rigged up a way to watch Tracy’s bedroom through a heating duct and the ex-con was sleeping in some pretty strange conditions up there after the attack was checked out:
“They found a man. He had packed all the old coats and jackets into the heating unit and was sleeping in the heating unit.”
Before leaving prison the man wrote letters to Tracy, telling her that he had changed his ways and become rehabilitated. Tracy ignored these overtures and thought the man had gone to Charlotte after being released.
