Perhaps you have a room in your house that never quite feels right. Do you hear bumps in the night or see shadows out of the corner of your eye? Are you a medium or clairvoyant who can communicate with the ‘other side’?

I was waiting for a train at a tiny station called Camellia, in Sydney. It's near Rosehill Racecourse, sort've along Parramatta River. Behind the station is an old historic grave with a marker. The grave is from the 1800's and belongs to a woman who died trying to save her young son after he fell in the river. They both drowned. Anyway, one day I had about an hour to wait for the next train so I walked around behind the platform and sat down near this grave with my boyfriend. We were just chatting, it was a nice day and this was a lovely shady spot overlooking the river. We talked about the grave and the story on the marker, then eventually it was time to go, only I couldnt find my wallet. It had been sitting on the ground in front of me, then when I looked, it wasn't. We stood up, checked around, checked our pockets, emptied my bag. Nothing. I joked that the little boy must be playing games with us, and said out loud that enough was enough and we had to catch the train now. Then we looked down again and the wallet was there. Right there on the ground where it absolutely had not been before. It wasn't frightening at all, it just really felt like there was someone else there. You can go and visit this grave any time, it's not fenced off or anything, it's just right behind the station.
