The events I am about to describe all occurred within the last year, right up until the most recent incident on 2/22/15. My friend Jack lives alone on the bottom of a large 2 unit home, which he says used to be a rooming house in the old days. The house is about 150 years old. Any history of the house is unknown to me at this time.
I had never had a real paranormal experience in my life until what I am about to tell you occurred. The first experience happened when we had just walked outside and were standing in the driveway of his house talking. I looked in through a window of the room we had just left, and saw the figure of a man standing there looking at me. I could see him quite clearly, even the navy blue color of his old fashioned pea coat, his hair color, and the expression on his face. He was there for a split second then gone, and while he was there I heard a fizzy sound like a radio station not coming in.
I went to Jack's house the next weekend and remarked to him how clean the place was. We both left the living room and walked into the kitchen. When we returned to the living room there was a large pile of laundry on the floor that was not there. Jack was shocked as was I.
A couple of weeks after that we went in to the barn to collect wood and Jack was stunned to see a red wagon there, right in front of the woodpile, that he had never seen before. More shockingly, it was the same red wagon from his childhood in Ohio. He said he was sure the wagon was not there before that night.
The most disturbing incident happened a couple of weeks ago. We went into the barn to get wood again, and Jack jokingly threw a log across the room to try and scare me. Right after that we came into the house and Jack rolled up the leg of his pants to reveal a large swollen wound, like half a tennis ball, with what looked like teeth marks in the middle of it. There is no plausible answer to how that wound occurred, nothing struck him or anything like that.
Jack also told me how he saw a dark figure walking up the driveway one night, coming toward him. He ran in the house right away. Also a friend visited from Australia and she stayed in the house for a month. She told me it was haunted by many ghosts, including a something evil that was not human. Her dreams were horrifying while there.
I don't know if this has any relevance but the stars shine incredibly bright above this house, much brighter than anywhere in New England I have seen---my friend Jack is reluctant to talk about any of this stuff---so thanks for reading.

Thanks for your advice on how to pursue history of the house, and I plan on doing just that and reporting back to this site.
I just can't imagine an animal being able to bite my friend standing right beside me without anything being seen and no noise either, but I honestly don't know what caused it.
Two more things have happened since my last post. I was sweeping around a table with 4 pushed in chairs, and a 5th chair that was outside the rest. I asked Jack to please move the 5th chair somewhere else so I could sweep properly. I then walked into the kitchen and when I came back 2 minutes later the 5th chair was gone, no where to be found in the entire house! Jack never touched it, he doesn't even believe me that a 5th chair was ever there, but I'm certain it was.
The last time I was there we heard scratching on the upper wall like something trying to dig it's way into the wall, along with some thumping sounds. We both looked directly at the spot while it was happening. Also my fully charged phone was dead when I got home which makes no sense. This isn't over that's for sure.
