There is a type of ghost or spirit, call it what you will, that is attached to, almost a part of, a feature or place. The Spirit is not tied to the place having died through a traumatic Passing such as a murder or other type of violent death nor is it resisting moving on to the Spirit Plane by haunting a place; it just ‘is’

In Ancient Egypt such a ‘presence’ was called a ‘Ka’ and frequently inhabited statues and the such, it did not ‘haunt’ or wander around weeping and wailing, it just ‘was’ These Spirits still exist.

Such Spirits often remain unobserved or unnoticed, which is how they see themselves; just a part of the fabric, rather like, I suppose, a brick would see itself as part of the fabric in a wall. These Kas may be all around us we don’t know and trying to find and contact one would be very tiresome because they don’t want to be contacted…why would a brick in a wall want to talk to you?

In the 1970s I lived in a flat in Ilfracombe in North Devon, the flat was part of a Victorian house (my living room and bedroom were 2 halves of what was once a ballroom!). As I grew accustomed to living in this flat I felt that I could detect a supernatural presence in one corner of the living room. It was not haunting or intruding in any way, I am not sure that it was aware of my presence at all or if it was aware it did not give a fig for my being there. It just ‘was’

I made various attempts to let it know that I knew that it was there but with no response. The old guy I had met on Flatholm Lighthouse had been curious, worried and interested in what was happening, this Spirit was not, it was just there.

My clairsentience enabled me with a bit of effort to detect that the Spirit was an old lady from the Victorian era (inasmuch as I could sense that she had been there for a long time) but that was all I could ‘see’. Like a statue she just stood there.

I called on a Clairvoyant friend of mine to try and contact the woman for me (since I couldn’t have a dialogue with this woman because I couldn’t hear or see her how I expected her to respond to my contact I don’t know. Did I expect her to dance around the room in the shape of the word ‘hello’ so I could detect her?)

My friend, a Spiritualist Medium, was able to see the woman and could talk to her but she did not get any reply (I hadn’t spoken to the Spirit just to the corner of the room where she was)

The Ka of the lady remained in the corner for a time and did not trouble me at all, although my friend and I did refrain from any hanky-panky in that room from then on.

There came a time when with the help of a Psychic circle we were able to get some sort of conversation going with the Ka and we found a way of putting across to her that there was a welcome and restful place waiting for her on the Spirit Plane.

There was still no reply or response from the woman but she did begin to fade and eventually disappeared.
