My first experience happened somewhere between the ages of 6 and 9, from my best recollection. Hey, it was about 40 years ago, so I don't expect to remember everything about it. 
It was the middle of the night. We lived in a 2-story farmhouse. I had woke up needing to use the bathroom - which was downstairs, through the living room and through to the other side of the kitchen. At the bottom of the stairs, there's a door. When I opened the door into the living room, I saw, quite clearly, a full-bodied apparition sitting in Dad's recliner. I don't recall if it was male or female, but it was definitely there. Being a kid, it scared me and so I ran across the living room and through the kitchen to the bathroom. The apparition followed me (only by turning their head, not getting up out of the recliner) when I ran across the living room. On my return trip, the apparition was still there and followed (again, just by turning their head to "follow" me) my trip back through the living room. They didn't speak nor get up out of the recliner. Knowing what I know now, I can only guess that it was a friendly apparition who had probably once lived there. It also seemed to be an intelligent apparition due to the fact that they turned their head to watch my progress through the living room both times. A residual apparition wouldn't haven't noticed my presence. This was my first paranormal experience. In retrospect, I wish I had tried to communicate with it - but, being a child at the time, my fear of the unknown had a greater hold on me unfortunately. Perhaps I'll have to see if my ability still functions - I have astral traveled before ... many times ... when I was younger. I haven't done so in many, many years though.
On March 1, 2003, I had moved in with my elderly aunt to take care of her. We didn't want her in a nursing home. Since Dad and Ma don't smoke (Aunt Vi and I both smoked at the time), I was the one to be her live-in caretaker. I was also working full-time at the time as well. Sadly, on April 10, 2012, my aunt passed away. She had signed the house over to Dad and Ma years ago. So, I offered to buy the house from them (to help them with their retirement - Dad is almost 71 now, Ma is 66) and closed on October 2, 2014. I live alone. While I have not seen any apparitions in the house, there are still many nights that pass that I hear footsteps while I'm in bed. I don't feel anything malicious, so I believe that it may be my aunt who might be watching over me. I don't know. Sometimes, in the basement, I can hear voices (indistinguishable) and occasionally, music. Sadly, they aren't loud enough for me to hear clearly with the naked ear and I don't have any good recording equipment to try and capture it. These occurrences (footsteps, voices and music) still happen to this day (I just heard a single footstep last night). Now if I can just get some bills paid off to where I can buy some good recording equipment.
