in 1983 I lived in a small frame house on Thomasville road in Tallahassee florida. the house was old and had been a family home for one of the earlier local families.
when anyone had an appointment, the day before the little appointment card would appear in a corner shelf at eye level
and by eye level I mean eye level of the person who had an appointment (including pets)
this happened if we were home or not and it happened without regard to who was home (by this I mean that by people not being there when cards appeared we eliminated everyone in the house as a suspect)
that winter I was sitting in a chair with my oldest who was maybe 4 at the time watching downhill skiing (not a regular occurance either at the time we had an antanae and 3 channels). I said "I wonder how they score this stuff?" and my 4 year old proceeded to school me on all the fine points of downhill racing, he explained the whole sport and it turned out he had hit every point head on.
I asked him who told him so much about skiing and he said "the judge tells me" the judge was a very old man who would look in on him after he turned in and would tell him things.
at no time was any evil vibe felt or exhibited
I know holes can be easily knocked into this story and people will say well you just misinterpreted things and I myself am not particularly prone to this kind of stuff but it happened
