"The house we grew up in in Swansea was haunted by the previous owner, William Rees, who had owned it since around 1900."
"A neighbour asked who the man standing in the first floor bay window was; my mother came face to face with him in the hall; my son asked who the man in the front room was; and my last sighting was the most weird!"
"I was walking down the hall and in the mirror I saw a man walk through the wall behind me. I turned, and William was walking through a blocked-up doorway into the garden. I walked back up the hallway, and when I reached the bricked-up doorway, it was like walking into a block of ice. I was freezing, and I started to shake, tears rolled down my face but I wasn't crying. I stepped back and the feeling went away."
"We sold the house about nine years ago. I wonder if he is still there?"

Noticed this post is from 2005. I am curious about the ghost. Was there ever a property in a previous century, perhaps the early 1800's or earlier that had a fire on the site of the present property?
We have an allusion in some old family papers to a Grandfather, William Rees, of some number of great's whose property had a fire.
The housekeeper ran off at the time of the fire with the papers to the house. Since our Rees did not have the papers he could show no owership...it was taken over by the British Government.
