When I was a child I saw a woman in (shadow form) in the upstairs window she had long straight black hair and a white gown. She appeared to be playing a piano.

  do you know who owns the house. I am a paranormal investigator and would love to be able to get inside this house and do and investigation with me and my team if so please let me know. I do not trespass so I must have permission before I even go in
