ghosts,

Hi gantwick, Why didn't you ask her who she was? I'd be wondering if she were one of your children's angel, except that it sounds as though she was associated with a particular house rather than with a particular child.

She's the ghost of the lady that lived in that house 30-40 years ago. She usually doesn't show up unless there is some kind of change taking place in the house. When we moved in (it's my inlaws house), it was for me to have an inexpensive place to live while I was in grad school. The White Lady showed up off and on for the first few weeks until we got settled. She decided she like us (she already knew my wife, who grew up in that house), and kept her visits to a minimum. There was one time, however, when my oldest had been bullying the youngest two, that she showed up in the night and "screamed" at my oldest as he slept (my daughter saw her bending over his bed screaming silently), and he told us the next day that he'd had nightmares. His bullying diminished to normal bratty big brother things.

it is not interesting , it is dreadful.the moment you enter a haunted house , you feel somewhere deep inside you that someone else is there, behind you . it is really chilling. it is very typical. the experience cannot be put in writing, it is very strange .

i dont think all hauntings are dreadful. there are hauntings like the myrtles where the ghost takes care of the children. (granted it is supposedly because of guilt over killing her original charges)
