Paranormal activity

[The People]

My friend had a car that hated women. It would shut down for no reason. Hubby would go to get her and the car would start. For other men as well. It happened so many times that they sold it... to a man.
I had a cat that I called my guard dog. She would start staring like someone was in the room.
The younger ones often see a man with a black hat and coat. We know he isn't there but he especially shows up around a certain holiday.
We have known when bad or sad things are happening within the family. And we smell the mother's cigarettes.
