2 Doors Down From Bonnie Parker

My wife's mother lived two doors down from Bonnie Parker, you know, Clyde Barrow's future wife and team player for a Texas murder spree?
And now I live in the house that was owned by the parents of The Dallas police officer, J.D. Tippit, who was killed by the man who killed John F. Kennedy. That man was Lee Harvey Oswald.

So if I ever doubted our home was haunted I have no reason to do so.
Yea, South Oak Cliff, Dallas, TX.

@rebelann Yep, it really was because for some reason I never got that feeling out of my head all these years since.

I was half asleep once and one time saw a ghostly apparition float across the hall and heard a voice whisper my name as I went out of the back bedroom into the hall and it gave me the creeps.

Yep. I believe it is. But no problem. Ghosts are not killers, just bored spirits with no place to go. LOL

@lookatdesktop I agree, I've never heard of a ghost killer. it's the live ones that kill.

I bet Bonnie Parker's mother was a regular person. Your brush with history on both counts.

I went to the site and read the one about Bonnie and Clyde, I haven't went to the site yet on J D Tippit. I thought the story on Bonnie and Clyde was intersting, I still don't see why they had to shoot them as many times as they did though. I remember when I was young, my great uncle would tell us about meeting Pretty Boy Floyde, he said he was in the bank when he came in to rob the bank. My great uncle said he was allowed to keep his money though.

Yes, I was befriended by a man who's son was a sergeant for the Dallas Police Department, S.W Division and he owned a red manual 1961 Valliant, like my blue automatic the same year. He wanted to buy it but I said no deal. He fixed my lawn mower, as he was retired from the police department himself. Small world.

@lookatdesktop 1960s Valiants lasted forever. I had one that I bought in 1969. It finally started nickel and diming us; so we got rid of it after many, many years.
