Haunted Monkeys…if they were Flying Haunted Monkeys we would REALLY be screwed.

Did you read the title right, you ask yourself??? Why yes…yes you did read it right, ghost monkeys are starting to haunt some of America’s most beloved family retail spots…in the Poconos, a candle shop to be exact. Can the spirits of animals really haunt something??? There have been the spectral ghostly apparitions of wolves, and birds and cats and dogs…but monkeys??? I guess anything is possible in the world of the paranormal…and if people can have the familiars, look that word up under witch craft and you learn what it means…ok pretty much your animal sprit that is connected to, there now you don’t have to look it up I just explained it to you. However I am not talking about familiars of animal spirits in the regards to this story of ghostly monkeys.

You see in the Poconos there is a store called the Candle Shop of the Poconos, in which it has been standing for over 100 years, now the shop owners in the exploration of the history of the shop had managed to uncover a very dark and cruel past of the building. You see many years ago a doctor in 1879 was conducting animal experimentation in the basement of the building for local laboratories. As the research grew more and more they found that the experiments had become more and more grisly on the innocent animals. They unearthed a number of old laboratory equipment that more than likely was used in the experimentation as well. They have also unearth some of the original monkey cages and do not get rid of them for fear of truly disrupting the monkey paranormal presence. For the record if you hurt an animal then you should be hurt within the same fashion…please let me get my hands on Michael Vick, just saying.

Now Animal Planet has done a ghost hunt on the basement of the facility and have discovered a number of things in the way of evidence…and the evidence also coincides with the strange happenings that the owners and visitors had experience as well. The evidence that was found and supported was the sounds of monkeys chattering and rattling around in their cages as well as monkeys running around the downstairs area…and of course there are no living monkeys within the building. They have also heard the growling of other possible animals, but the monkey ones are the ones that really stand out to those who visit and investigate. Now the overall areas of paranormal activity give off a uneasiness that many people, some who are true skeptics have said they feel like a presence is there…and nobody seems to be sure if it is a good or bad presence.

So is it possible for animals to “haunt” buildings…well based upon this one story I would say yes and not to mention the vast amounts of other stories that are out there in which animal spirits “haunt” certain locations.

Be safe and please spay and neuter your spirit animals,
