I put out the light at 10.30 and we went to sleep. I did not sleep well. I could feel the smell of cigarette smoke in the room.

I dreamt a lot and the dreams I was dreaming were not good. At 5 I saw the wall open in my dream and I saw a burning house on the hill nearby. I was feeling afraid in my sleep and I started praying. There was something not good about the room.

I awoke and I opened my eyes. I was facing the mirror and there was a man in the mirror. I was surprised but this was uncomfortable also. I had always heard that Ghosts are not seen in mirrors and maybe I did not believe so much in ghosts. But now this was evident. There was a man in the mirror and he scared me. I turned around and there was nothing. I turned again and there he was in the mirror. He was somewhat red haired I think. Something pink was there too and he was holding his arm out, clenching his fist towards me. He might have had a knife. I knew he was dead and I knew he was a murderer and he was very angry.

I became so freighted I screamed at the top of my lungs.

Oh god, MAMMA. Pálmi awoke and he comforted me. I held his hand for a long time.

Somehow after an hour I managed to get asleep again but I had bad dreams.

Next day we visited the castle on the hill and I learned that it had been a poor house in 1952 when one wing burned. I later learned that one man died in that fire.

I did not tell many people this but at the dining table that evening I told a few and one woman said, “why did you not tell me straight away” She prays for people. She said she would pray for him and that he had been seeking help from me.

She said that something very cold had come into the dining room and she was just waiting to see what it was.

Next night I did not see him. I had bad dreams and I was afraid to go to the toilet. I took care of not looking in the mirror.

At 5 I was finally asleep. I had ear studs and did not hear anything. I later learned that some one had been knocking at a door and woke every one up. Pálmi said that it was just someone locked out. I wonder. He also thinks that I had a night mare but I know I was awake.

I have had dreams when I think I wake up but don't. This was different. I was awake.

Since this exists the good does too. May god be with this poor soul. I am not harmed by this. But I could not and can not stop thinking about this.

On the photos you see the hotels backyard seen from my window, the mirror and the castle.

    I think I'd have given up on sleeping there after something like that! What an awful experience!

    I would have been scared.
  • skald said on Nov 07, 2007....
    Uniquely.  Yes it was horrible
    Ed.  Who knows, I was thinking of getting another room straight away but then i did not.  It was just a thought.
    Secret.  I sincerely hope this will never happen to you and not to me again.
    Infernal.  I don't know how I managed to sleep again but it took an hour.
    Crybabylu.  And I was too.

    Wow, that was so weird. And scary! But I've had experiences like that, so I know what it feels like. I think the man was looking to you for help. It's interesting that you dreamt about a fire, only to find out that it had really happened.

    Kyle.  I remember what you wrote about. I also saw someone in England sitting on a window sill every night. It was not scary and I even accused by friend of being the one sitting there. That man was in a shadow but this one I saw very well and he was so angry clenching his fist at me  and I was sure he was a murderer . This was very scary and I don't think I will ever forget it  Yes it is strange about the fire but in dreams I am very susceptible. I know you know how I feel

    I believe in.... "thumps" in the night! I believe we all "carry-on" only in another plane after death.
    My grandmother visited me ...after she died to say goodbye.
    I called to see if my dream was true...mom told me she passed-away in her
    sleep.
    Glad to hear someone else dreams...strange things too! Take care   see ya
  • skald said on Nov 07, 2007....
    Me.  Yes I do and I am glad your grandmother could contact you. Thanks and take care self. see ya too.

    ohmygod this post really scared me!!! i just put the light on because it's 2 here in the morning and there's a mirror in here!!!! ohmygod skald i'm scared but dont worry i'll pray....
  • kruuyai said on Nov 07, 2007....
    It's a good thing this happened at a hotel and not at your home.  At least you don't have to be afraid anymore now that you are home.
  • skald said on Nov 07, 2007....
    Queen.  I am sure your mirror is O.K so are mine at home.
    Kruu.  You are so right I was so glad to go away from there and since then I have been looking at my mirrors at night, not seeing anything at all because it is dark, lol.
  • quietone said on Nov 07, 2007....
    skald ~ I read the other post first then this one, so now I see that your husband was with you...I am glad of that!!  I have heard of such things, but thankful I have never had to "see" anything like that.  I think the lady was probably right, that the man was wanting something from you to help him or pass on his story of sorts.  But none the less, too scary for me too!  Quite odd.  Thank you for sharing.
  • skald said on Nov 07, 2007....
    Quiet.  Only if I knew his story. Knew who he was and if he was in the fire. Thanks quiet. I also wrote a post about the room. How I chose that bed and so on, it was to be a prelude on this post but I don't think that many people realized this. 
  • wombat said on Nov 07, 2007....
    That was spooky!  I missed the other post myself, but will go back and read!  Well, you at least have one more "adventure" to remember on you fantastic trip!
  • queenparanoia said on Nov 07, 2007....
    skald: dont orry dear i'm not scared anymore... =)
  • skald said on Nov 08, 2007....
    Wombat.  this does not go out of my mind and I wish this had not happed,
    Queen. Good
  • wombat said on Nov 08, 2007....
    skald:  Oh, I am sorry that this really upset you so much.  I wish it hadn't happened also.
  • skald said on Nov 08, 2007....
    Wombie.  Thank you my dear. But I guess there is nothing to do about it. 
  • botoni said on Nov 08, 2007....
    Skald, I am so sorry that you were freightened by the ghost. I think that he may have chosen to let you see him and his anger because he believed you would help him. It would be interesting to search and see if others have had similiar experiences. Perhaps the hotel has had other reports of ghostly visitors. Glad you re ok now.
  • skald said on Nov 09, 2007....
    Botoni.  I want th help  him and I want to find out and I have tried without any success.I will go on . I looked at the hotels site  and reports from people most were happy but one guest said it was  horrible. I don't know how to find him or her and I feel silly writing to the hotel. I hope I find out someday. I also hope the lady who is psychic and pays for people had helped. This does not go out of my mind for one minute  I think I am an intelligent person and I doubted these things even thought I had maybe seen one or two things before but never as evident as this and my grandmother told me about what she saw but feared as a child and asked god to take it away. she said her prayer had been answered.

    I'm surprised to hear you were told ghosts don't appear in mirrors.  They most certainly do I've seen them, nothing like this though, and Jewish traditions says you must cover a every mirror in the dead persons house for 3 days after they die so that their spirit will not be trapped in the mirrors.

    But wow...with the dreams and everything it's incredible and scary and I would never be able to forget an experience like that either.  Thank you for sharing.
  • skald said on Sep 25, 2008....
    Tsuya.  Yes, You are right, I had forgotten that I had read stories of people seeing something in old mirrors but then in some of our folks stories there were ghosts that were only seen but not in the mirror and that was confusing me. I did not know why Jews covered the mirrors but I had seen it in films. Thank you for telling me and thank  you for reading this. 
  • Tsuya said on Sep 25, 2008....
    Hey no problem. Because I experience stuff like this often myself I find it fascinating to the point where often study folklore and myth. The only mythical being I'm aware of that cannot be seen in a mirror is a vampire. Please tell me what creatures in your mythology have this same property I'm VERY curious!
  • skald said on Sep 26, 2008....
    Tsuya.  I only hear that ghost that you see could not been seen in a mirror, that is all. That is what confused me. This man was in the mirror and not behind me, if you get what I mean. By the way I am from Iceland. Are you in the U,S.A?
