I have been living in my boyfriend's room that is connected to the basement of his parents house on and off for about five years now. The room is downstairs and the entrance is outside of the house. The room is part of the basement that has been renovated into a living space. The washer and dryer is in the room and the pipes go through the wall into the basement, and there is also a door that connects to the basement that is covered by a piece of plywood that is screwed on. Let me tell you that my boyfriend has lived in this house since he was six, and he is twenty five now and he hasn't heard anything or seen anything that would freak him out enough to even think about it being supernatural encounters.
Experiences:
Recently there has been things that's been happening that cannot be explained. For example, one day my boyfriend was doing the recycling in the back of the house like he usually does. He texted me telling me he is super sick and feels weak and felt like he couldn't move which went on for about an hour. Later on that night he said that he got sick right after his head touched some stick that was connected to a piece of twine that was hanging under an overhang that had a dead deer's head (that his step dad killed) on it. He ended up just tossing it in the woods, not thinking anything of it.
We've been hearing foot steps every where, around the house. Our neighbors including us have wood decks. So we thought that there were people lurking around the house trying to steal stuff or something, so one night we set up a security camera that was facing towards his windows, because we would hear tapping on the windows also. Later that night, as we watched the camera we don't see anything at all, but I could hear as if someone was walking around, and the sound of jeans rubbing up against each other. I could also hear two people talking, which sounded like a girl and a guy. I couldn't make out what they were saying though, but it sounded like it was literally right by the camera somewhere. It was definitely an eye opener. This is when I started to believe that it wasn't actual people who were lurking around.
Almost every night my boyfriend and I hear so much things go on through the night. We hear the basement door getting tampered with, we hear voices and tapping noises on the windows, footsteps on the deck. The basement door on the outside is screwed on so there is no way of an actual person getting inside the basement. This has been going on for a while now, now that I look back. For several months.
A couple nights ago our neighbors heard things too, one neighbor was soaking in his jacuzzi in his bathroom with the jets on, when all of a sudden he heard a sound of something trying to kick his door open. He ran out and nothing was there. He is partially deaf, so this noise was really loud he said. This happened around 11pm. Around 2am he swore he heard my boyfriend and I fighting outside his window, so he just thought it was us. (But it wasn't, we were inside at that time, being quiet.)
Our other neighbor said she heard a huge bang sound, like a pipe exploded she said. Another night, she explained that she thought there was someone sitting on her deck but she was to scared to look. Also that she saw someone pacing around taking to himself across the street.
My boyfriend and I believe it's spirit haunting us, but we have absolutely no idea why and why this is happening now. We have been cleansing the room with sage and a protection candle. We also just crushed up red brick and lined all the window sills with it, the door, the basement door, etc.
The most recent noises was last night, started to happen around 11pm and carried on through out the whole night. Sounds like someone was trying to pry open the basement door and tampering behind the washer and dryer (which I hear all the time). I try not to be afraid, but this spirit is really trying to get to us. And I don't want to feed it anything it wants. This is all I got for now. If I told this to anyone, most people would think I'm strung out on drugs and tripping out. If you can relate or have any suggestions you can give me, please let me know. Thank you.

This all reminds me of something which happened where I grew up. I hope this helps you in some way.
A supermarket was built over the road from a large park which had a creak running through it. There's a library in the park near the creek and a bunch of residential houses near by. We lived further down and weren't affected. But all, and I mean all, the locals near this location went through hell. I hung out at the library a lot because I'm a tragic nerd and during this time some of the librarians started escorting each other to the rest room because they were spooked by something.
That library is haunted anyway, but no one ever freaked out before the building happened across the road.
One of the locals who lived close to where the building was gong on told my mum he and his neighbours were checking up the street at all hours because of strange noises they couldn't explain. He had something banging around in his house for a good while too.
None of the building work cut into the surrounding environment, it was a nightclub before the supermarket went up. But I guess the spirits didn't understand this and only saw the construction as a threat.
You know what the really odd thing is? Reading all the comments here and fitting the pieces together! Looking back at that now it really seems like the same thing you're going through.
Well as soon as the building was completed everything just went back to normal. None of the locals had any trouble, it was as if nothing had ever happened!
So I guess everyone is spot on about your local construction work. Which is kind of a good thing, though I know it sucks, but heaps better than poltergeists.
Biblio's right, you need to get out of dodge for a while. Even if it's just for a few hours. Get that man of yours and indulge in some R&R together, do you both the world of good.
Take care and I hope you keep us posted.
Oh yeah I know what you mean about having to type stuff and just wanting to tell it face to face. It's taken me months to type up something unpleasant all because it was just so darn hard, emotional and confusing to write into words. Frustrating too when it would be so easy to just speak it. Written word can be like slow motion which is exactly what we don't need when we're stressed!
Take care, hope this comes to pass soon.
