There is an old abandoned white and green house down near Creek Road in
Hellertown. There have been many stories concerning this house the most relevent
being that a man had hung himself in the upstairs room. Now, being that it is an
abandoned house, the windows and doors and such have been boarded up, however
the boards from two windows have since been removed by various "party-minded"
teenagers.
One night, before I even knew that the house was abandoned or even there to
begin with, a friend and I drove by it and I noticed a blue glow coming from one
of the windows and I remarked to my friend "Gee, looks like someone's home
watching TV tonight." (If you ever notice, when driving or walking by someone's
house, you can tell that the television is on because it tends to emit a bluish
glow) My friend then told me the house was abandoned and boarded up. "Bullsh*t",
I told him, "So someone is watching TV in a boarded up old house?"
Nothing really more was said about this issue that night, however, soon after
that I had made it a point to drive near the house to check it out and I noticed
that the window from which I had seen the light was boarded up and presumably
had been the night that I had seen the light. Now, I'm the type of person that
wants to believe, but will only do so after every possible natural, physical,
mental, psychological, and practical instance has discounted.
So I tried to figure it out in my mind, but it just wouldn't make sense. If
there was by chance someone in there, there couldn't have been a TV (too large
and there is no electricity running to the house...and a generator, maybe, but
you still need cable and there's no real portable way to do that, except for an
antena. But the whole idea of a TV being in the house would be ridiculous to
begin with, I've been in the house once-in that particular room and have seen no
signs that there ever was anything up there at all.) Now this room from which I
had seen the glow is the supposed room where the man hung himself, this I didn't
find out until much later.
Well recently, myself and 3 other friends drove down to the house in the dark
and I parked my car in such a way that my high beams could shine directly on the
house. I flashed my beams a couple times at the house to see if anything would
happen. Nothing. Then I rolled down my window and starting off with the phrase,
"I invoke thee..." (which is the most common invocation spell) I asked the
spirit to show itself with no ill intent or harm. I rolled my window back up and
we all sat quietly in the dark (my lights having been long since turned off) and
we all saw 2 bright balls of blue light flash through the woods directly
adjacent to the house. Yes, I could have been someone with a flashlight,
however, a blue flashlight? Plus flashlight beams tend to be stronger at the
base and weaker towards the top, this has no beam to it and was a strong ball
that just flashed through the woods, two quick flashes. And I have three other
witnesses to this.
Well, I guess we'll all see when we get the pictures we have taken of the inside
and outside of the house developed. Those blue balls of light could have been
lightening balls or a form of self-projection (self-fulfilling wish-if we wanted
to see something so badly we could have projected it subconsciously) ,but for
now it could be marked as unexplained.
