Kinda confused me
o.k....Here it goes...Yes this is another one of them "Amber" questions!
Last night I was at a place that is kinda famous around here for the ghost of a woman who was murdered like forever ago. Now my question is....when I was in certian spots of this place...my back seemed to be like it was burning. Not bad or anything, but I guess u could say warmer than the rest of my body. I was wondering if this was anything that could tell me that a spirit was around or not. It was quite cold out last night, ya know sweatshirt weather to keep ya just the right temp. so there was no reason the middle of my back should have had that feeling if the rest of my body was kinda cold. Just a question I was wondering about....will someone help me out here? lol

Re: Kinda confused me
I agree with esta 100% babe....it sounds like wound sensing to me.... regardlesss, the temp would have still dropped a few degrees in her presence. It can no more be controlls then your reflection in the mirror. however if you were empathically picking up her wounds, that would explain the heat....stabbing, shooting, beatings and a variety of other injuries cause burning then numbness.

Re: Kinda confused me
Here's the story I found on the internet.....I got it from www.wvghosts.com
Mamie Thurman's Ghost
Edited by: JMoore / WVGhosts.com Editor
Mamie Thurman may not be nationally renown, but her name is recognized in around the southern part of West Virginia and Kentucky. Who was Mamie? Mamie was a young woman living in the city of Logan is the 1930's. On June 22, 1932, her slain body was found and recovered on 22 Mountain near Holden. Holden is some five to ten miles from Logan.
According to medical authorities at the time, her death resulted instantly from a gunshot wound before her throat was cut from ear to ear. Found along side the body was one shoe and her purse which contained $8 to $10. Two diamond rings and a wristwatch were her still on her body, thus ruling out robbery as the motive for her death.
The arrest and eventual conviction of a handyman brought about a lot of questions in Logan. The investigation involved several prominent people in Logan at the time. The trial resulted in standing room only with many driving in to the courthouse and bring chairs and basket lunches.
The funeral service drew tremendous interest and was one of the most unusual services ever held in the county. There were a total of 550 women and 30 men in attendance at the funeral. After nearly 50 years , Thurman's half-brother returned to Logan for the purpose of placing a stone to properly mark her gravesite.
He ran into trouble locating her grave. Records at the funeral home stated she was buried in Bradfordsville, Ky. A visit to that town proved wrong. Upon returning to Logan, a copy of the death certificate in the county courthouse states she was placed in the Logan Memorial Park at McConnell. A visit to that cemetery also failed to show a gravesite.
Her brother failed to locate her grave. The questions surrounding the mystery of her murder have followed her to her grave. After extensive searching, her brother returned home, still unable to finally let his sister rest in peace.
Local legend has thrived with Mamie's story. Some say she still stalks Holden 22 Mountain. Tales and stories of her ghostly appearances cause one to wonder is she still cries out for justice.
Since her death, rumors have survived and some feel her ghost will continue to walk up and down the mountainside until someone finally tells the truth about her death. "Believe it or not!"

Re: Kinda confused me
Sounds like someone got off with murder; handyman blamed, but yet all these rich guys got off scotfree? She had diamonds on her, wouldn't a handyman want those, back then?
Was she pregnant, and that's why her body disappeared?
I vote for one of the rich guys murdered her, and pinned the blame on the poor handyman, who couldn't afford to defend himself.
