I heard stories from my father about my grandparents home for years. I spent a lot of time there but never stayed the night until I was around eleven years old. Before this night my experiences were odd but nothing really creepy. I went to sleep very early on the couch because I had a very bad headache. We were suppose to go fishing the next morning. When I woke up it was four in the morning. That was odd because we would always leave about that time. Everyone should have been up an hour ago to get everything ready, but they weren't. I had a very strange feeling that I wasn't alone. We had all my dads brothers there the night before so every bedroom was occupied, but it was dark and I could not tell who was where. I looked for my dad but could not find him. I went down the hall to look for him but saw something out the corner of my eye. As I turned and my eyes focused I started to see what I can best describe as a partially translucent irregular line of blue/gray smoke that extended from floor to mid-ceiling. It was at the other end of the house and moved from one side of the doorway to the other and disappeared from view. I was scared less and stood there frozen. A few seconds later there was a very loud crash of dishes. It sounded like somebody pulled the table cloth right off the table and all the dishes from the night before with it. Only problem was the table was in my view and nothing moved on it. I was scared but relieved because somebody had to hear that and would come to help me. I must of stood there for thirty or forty minutes in one place frozen. Then the sun started to come up and I could see in the house a little better so I continued down the hallway and found the bedroom my father was in. I told him what had happened and he told me he wasn't surprised, he had some things like that happen to him too. He told me some of his stories and before I went to sleep he explained that the battery in the boat motor would not hold charge so they all went back to sleep. We tried the battery later that day and had no problem. Believe my story or not that is what happened.......... Sorry I did not use paragraphs I was in a rush. I leave work in a few.
