We always had this thing about the mirror on the living room. It was this big old oval probably 1920's mirror that was really heavey. The thing was from time to time it would fall down; but only when someone important in the family died. The three times i can think of was when my two grandmothers and my grandad(fathers) died. It hasnt fallen in years.
A few months ago my mam decided to do up the living room and decided to replace the cursed mirror. She did. In its place went a lovely black ash framed rectangular mirror. The old mirror gets put away and the room looks really nice. No more cursed mirror!.....
.......Until this morning when i was woken up with a crash of the new mirror falling down. First thing i said was, "Someones going to die." Second thing was "Its the feast of all saints! the day after the veil between the spirit world and our world is at its thinist. Someone aint happy." Only the frame broke, thankfully, but now my mams new mirror cant be used. Nobody appears to have died yet.(*sigh of relief*) So we think that the whatever that seems to be about the old mirror got cranky about being packed away and woosh! Byebye new mirror.
So it looks like old mirror will be going back to where it hung for thirty odd years, and new mirror will be packed away.
But say a little prayer that the normal plague of the fallen mirror doesnt bafall us again.

    Very sorry to hear about your grandparents. That is really quite intriguing, though! So, I take it that the mirror has never been broken at all. Am I right? Was the new mirror the only one that has broken? Did your mother ever try hanging it somewhere else? Speaking "sensibly" here, maybe, for some reason, heavier items can't be hung in that particular spot. Speaking the way that, I think you might think, I would think normally, you know I really do have to believe there is something strange definitely going on with that thing. I start going into all kinds of theories and stuff. More along the lines that Yvette Fielding would like to investigate!

    No mirror has ever broke. The old one is still intact bar a couple of little chips in the wood. the new one was much lighter. Probably 4 times lighter that the old one. But there is something about the old mirror, a thats why i believe that it wanted its old place back. (incase you are all wondering, no one has died. Thanks be to Jaysus as we say in dublin) Did you see the halloween special of MH?

    Most Haunted!! They make me SO mad!!! We didn't get the Halloween special this year. I had trouble getting into the forums to see if ANYONE knew why we weren't getting it here. So I never got an answer and I never saw it. Where was it this year? Didn't it last over the weekend through Halloween? I would've loved to have had that to watch all those nights! Did anything really good happen on there? I had a strange feeling that we weren't going to get it because we had a live event here, in the US, the weekend before (Oct. 19). Do you guys get to see our live events? We never get to see any from over there except for the Halloween one, which we didn't this year. Have you ever seen the program "Ghost Hunters"? I, at least, had 6 hours of that to watch Halloween night, but I was SOOOOO MAD over the MH event!

    they did it over 5 nights and marked out an inverted pentagram over the 5 nights. I only got to see two of them because of work. They were good enough but its like they are trying too hard to make the nights good. I went onto the messege boards there the other day and all anyone does there now is moan and critise the programme calling it a fake. One person even said that the downfall of the show was when Stuart joined. Had had to reply to that by mentioning that stuart has been in the show since series 1. But i had to agree that the crew have been kind of mean to David Wells.
