“In an old house,' he said, 'there is sometimes an atmosphere of evil.' 'That's it, sir,' said Ellen, eagerly. 'Evil. Bad thoughts and bad deeds too. It's like dry rot in a house, sir, you can't get it out. It's a sort of feeling in the air. I always knew something bad would happen in this house, someday.” EvilOld House Book:Peril at End House Source: Peril at End House
“Neither of us had lived in a house since we were kids; apartments, it turns out, are very different things, psychologically. Houses—especially old and creaky houses—are individuals, somehow; their fronts are faces, their closets are pants pockets.” GhostGhostsHauntingOld HousesGhost StoryHaunted HouseOld HouseHaunted House LoveHouse Love Author:Ben Dolnick
“Most people these days chase new things - new houses, new cars, new objects. But, they don't realise that old houses, old cars, and old objects have something that new things don't have - their history and culture. We must look at life from each other's perspective. New things will make you feel good but maybe for a short time. There is nothing fascinating about chasing new things. Which is why some people, like my parents, love old things, because these things have emotions, and sentiments attached to them. My Mom and Dad choose to stay in our old house in my hometown, because it was the house they built with their hard work and love. It is the house where my mother writes her beautiful poetry. It is the house where my father treats his patients. It is a house which has books, culture, cracks and yes history.” PhilosophyLife QuotesBrokenEmotionsCracksSentimentalOld ThingsOld BooksOld House Author:Avijeet Das

It had sat unopened for so long, suffocating in the silence, it's memories blanketed by a thick layer of dust.” AgeTimeHouseMemoriesDustForgotten MemoriesOld House Book:Husk Source: Husk
