British Man Receiving Text Messages From His Dead Wife

A widowed resident of an alleged haunted home claims he is getting text messages on his mobile phone - from his dead wife. Frank Jones, 59 moved into the home some twenty years ago and was skeptical of stories about hauntings - but had to have an exorcism performed there eight years after he moved in.

Five years ago - the hauntings resumed when Mr Jones suffered a double tragedy after his son Steven, 32, died from a brain tumor and wife Sadie, 69, died from a heart attack three months later.

He says he has had incidents of missed calls coming from his own home when the house is empty, and he is getting text messages which he claims are coming from his wife.

He told the local Blackpool Gazette "She always had a mobile with her. We buried her with her phone. There have been messages with words Sadie would say but there's no number."
