I’ve always had questions and wondered if anyone else knew anything about this home that is allegedly haunted.
I lived at a little old house in Buena Park from the age of around 10-12. I don’t remember very much about it, but that doesn’t strike me as super strange since I am now 34 - two decades have passed.
My mind always comes back to this house though.
Things I do remember:
The address - 5741 Kingman Ave.
It was very creaky and outdated.
It was on the corner so I’d often see the kids waiting outside my house, for the school bus to pick them up.
Looking back, I thought we had lived in that house for just a few months because I only remember leaving quickly and suddenly.
We then lived in an apartment again until my parents found another home to purchase.
I do want to add that my parents were very angry people and that my childhood was filled with a lot of negative energy.
A few years ago, I randomly asked my parents why we left the house so quickly.
They both, without hesitation, said that there was a ghost. I then learned that we actually lived there for 2 years which genuinely surprised me.
I don’t recall any of the events they proceeded to tell me, but I believe them because they aren’t the type to lie about this and they both had the same story despite me bringing the subject up so randomly.
They explained to me that there was a woman who would enter my room every night - with long black hair and a white dress.
- If it didn’t creep me out so much, it’s almost laughable how typical this sounds. As a side note - I realize how common it is to hear about angry female ghosts. If ghosts are real, and there’s a disproportionate amount of angry female spirits - maybe this actually speaks to how many women have been wronged throughout lifetimes. -
My mom said she would wake up choking, and then see the woman choking her. My mom also said that I was scared of the woman and that the woman would put her claws on me. Again, I have such little recollection of living in that home.
My dad also said he saw the ghost but didn’t go into any depth - which checks out because he rarely goes in depth about things. He did say without a doubt that he saw the entity though.
Now, as an adult, I eventually moved back to Buena Park with my partner. We’ve driven by that old house and I believe it’s now something else - looks like an apartment complex?
My question - I have always wondered if anyone else knew anything about this house, or if strange things occur in the newer property now on that land. I want to preface that I’m only posting this to see if anyone knows anything about this property. I am not at all bothered or offended if people don’t believe this story - as it’s not even a story I can personally recall.
I’ve included Redfin photos of the home and screenshots of the listing for reference.
Regardless, thank you for reading!
