    These are some fun stories, but I will admit – I’m a skeptic. Through and through. I’ve never seen anything or experienced something I would consider supernatural. Just because something can’t be explained doesn’t mean it’s of supernatural origin. I can’t rightly explain how my car’s engine works, but that doesn’t mean it’s ghosts. smirk
    There’s nothing wrong with a good story though, I’m just a skeptic. 🤷

    My family has lots of “unexplained” events. Not sure where I stand but I can’t prove them either way. The one story I have involves a house on Minnetonka. The girl I was dating at the time was renting part of said house. She was telling me all the time that it was haunted but didn’t give me any specifics. One night after making dinner, she went upstairs for something and I was still in the kitchen. In the other room I had heard that she had turned on the TV, for lack of a better explanation, it sounded like Seasame Street, kids laughing and playing kind of thing. Paid it no mind. All of a sudden she comes running down the stairs, not screaming but in a worried voice, “did you hear that?” You mean the TV? She says, no, the kids laughing. Yep, I hear it, it’s coming from the TV. THERE’S NO TV ON!!! So we go together into the other room, there is no TV on anywhere. And after thinking about it, there wasn’t a TV in that part of the house. And the nearest TV was not within reach for me to hear anyway. The sound was gone by the time we looked around. Could she have played a prank on me, of course, but if she was acting she deserves an Academy Award. We’ve all seen people that are legitimately scared, there’s no faking it, and she was that. Pupils, heart rate, etc. Those don’t lie. No explanation for it.

    Gentlemen, I have as well encountered beavers and tail slapping, this was nowhere near that sound. Best way I can describe it, grab a boulder a tad bigger than a 16lb bowling ball, stand on a 15′ ladder and drop it into the lake, that’s how loud the sound was. As for the “stream” of water, it went up about 5 feet, and like I said, it just vanished, it didn’t come back down.

    One story the owner told me, him and his wife came down to the twin cities to take care of some things, when they returned, they unlocked the bar and while cleaning discovered that all the toilet seats had been turned 1/4 turn, on every toilet, even in the locked rental cabins. Could somebody be playing a joke? Possible, but they had the keys with them while in the cities.

    I have also heard my rods getting moved across the outside of the camper several times, but when I go out there, there all standing straight up.

    This last summer, Ernie & his wife were up there, had windows open, said he got woken up about 2:00 a.m. with a rancid smell, he then heard some strange, what he called, high pitched sound, and then heard fist sized rocks bouncing around his camper.

    When I was closing the camper in mid September, it was Friday night about 10:45, I hear what sounded like people yelling at each other, then it turned into screams and whooping, very short bursts. Sounded like it started down by the bar and I thought just some drunk people, but the the noise started moving through where the campers are, and I am talking fast, faster than people could run from one spot to the next. Then I hear something on the outside of my camper, then the other side, then I hear the rods moving across the outside of the camper, then I hear a “slam” from the bathroom. Have a small wastebasket with the spring loaded top, press the tab and it pops open. I had that basket sitting in the shower stall, lid open, I get up and start looking around, go into the bathroom and that GD lid is CLOSED! HTF did that happen?

    Saturday I asked everybody that was up there if they heard all that screaming last night, only one person said they “thought” they heard something, and the folks I asked were all up and awake at the time.
