Orbs Mingling With Ghosts?

 Page 231 of the May 19, 1883 edition of the periodical Light, which you can read here,  has an article by Stella Dunbar about experiences at a supposedly haunted house. We read this:

"Just at this time a young lady was crossing a passage, and looking from the window to the garden saw a woman in a light dress crossing the lawn. She called her companion, and they both watched the figure disappear. The same evening two others, knowing nothing of what these had seen, met the same figure coming from my room, and even noticed that it had very large bare feet."

We later read this:

"A visitor saw a woman’s figure, in everyday attire, sitting at the foot of her bed ; and my mother, entering the same room, saw what—until she spoke to it—she imagined to be the servant. In this room are frequently seen largo balls of bright light."

The account has some other mentions of spooky figures making fleeting appearances at the house. We are told, "The figure of a child has been seen by the drawing-room fire-place, and at the top of the stairs."

A Spooky Sight

 Tonight hours ago I locked an inner door a few feet away from the front door of the house I live in, something I like to do as an additional security measure. A few minutes ago I decided to go outside and check the mailbox very close to the front door. I put on my shoes, noticing nothing unusual about the inner door right in front of me. When I came back from checking the mailbox, I noticed something very unusual.  The inner door was now ajar several inches, and locked (in the sense that the handle was unmovable unless you unlocked it) -- a state I can never recall seeing it in previously.  I am at a loss to explain this. I only lock this inner door when it is closed. I wonder whether this event has some symbolic significance. 

This is not the spookiest thing I have seen involving a door. As reported here, at a previous residence I once heard the lock cylinder turning on a locked door, and saw the door open slightly, without anyone entering. Going to investigate, and opening the door all the way, I saw no one nearby. 

Postscript: Odd things followed. The next Monday I heard a tooth paste tube falling into a sink a full minute after I had left a bathroom, with no one else around. The same night a light seemed to turn on by itself in the hall. The next day while watching a TV episode almost to its end, my PlayStation machine mysteriously turned on, when the TV remote was an arm's length away from me. The PlayStation and its controller were two meters away, and turning on the machine requires either touching a button on the machine, or clicking a particular sequence of two clicks using the TV remote. 

Deathbed Orbs Turning Into Apparitions?

 Below is an account from the May 11, 1934 edition of the periodical Light, which you can read here:

The person quoted is Charles L. Tweedale, author of the very interesting work Man's Survival After Death, which has many a fascinating eyewitness account of ghosts and spirit manifestations.  You can read the book below:

Orb Flanks the TV Ghost

Below we see a mysterious orb I photographed indoors. I was watching a Doctor Who episode on TV entitled "The Unquiet Dead," at the point where the TV depicted a ghost swirling around in the air. I wondered whether I might be more likely to get an orb when such a thing was depicted. Sure enough, this orb showed up in the second photo I took.
