someone sitting at the foot of my bed and I could feel
the pressure on my lower legs and feet. When I looked up I
thought it was just my mom sitting there looking at me to
make sure I was ok. I still have really bad Asthma. It
didn't really faze me and I went on back to sleep. When I
woke up in the morning my tv was still going. I thought that
was kind of odd because my mom came in to check on me and
didn't turn it off like she usually does. I walked back to
her and my dad's room and found my mom blowdrying her hair.
I asked her if I could talk to her a minute so she stopped
working on her hair and asked me if something was wrong. I
then looked at her and asked why had she come into my room
and sat at the foot of my bed looking at me and then left my
tv on. She looked like a deer caught in the headlights, and
asked me what on earth was I talking about. So I asked
again, and she said that she hadn't come in my room all
night.
We went back and forth for a few minutes until my dad woke
up and asked what we were talking about. So I asked him if
he had come into my room and he also said no. I had this
chill come over me and I told them both to quit messing with
me and tell me the truth. They both denied coming in and we
all knew that it wasn't my son since he was only 15 months
old and still slept in his crib without knowing how to climb
down.
My parent's started to get a little worried seeing as how I
was clearly freaked out. My mom asked me what all I
remembered and if I could tell her exactly what I saw. I
started telling them both what I could recall, and then it
hit me. I had opened my eyes and saw someone sitting at the
foot of my bed looking at me, but it didn't scare me at the
time. I also recalled that I could see my tv on THROUGH the
person sitting on my bed. The best way I could describe it
was that it looked at me in a way that was like someone
tending to an ill child or a patient. It was in no way
menacing. I really couldn't make out many facial features
since I only saw it for a couple of seconds and I was woke
up from a sound sleep.
Both of my parent's looked panicked as I told them what I
remembered, and even went and checked all the doors and such
to be sure no one had gotten in the house. BUT if that
would've been the case why on earth would someone come sit
on my bed and look at me and do nothing else?!?! I still
don't know whose ghost it was but I like to think that it
was one of my close relatives who had passed on just coming
in to check on me now that my husband was gone. Thinking of
it that way makes it a little less creepy for me.
A Room Full of Shadow People
by Spooky
This happened when I was about 8 years old so it would have
been around 1977. A friend of my brother's had just been
killed in a car accident and I was having a nightmare about
her. I awoke and was startled to find people standing in my
room.
There were two beds, mine and my older sister's. I looked
over at my sister and saw who I thought was her sitting on
her bed and her elbows were on the little table next to her
bed and her hands were closed into fists and she had her
chin propped on them. I could see she had a braid on each
side of her head and I remember my sister had gone to bed
with two ponytails, not braids. I kept calling out to her,
but she didn't answer.
There was also a person in the middle of the room, another
one leaning over me and one by the window. There was also
one in my doorway, blocking it. They all just stood there
motionless looking like 3-D shadows. They had dimensions,
only they were solid black.
I slid off of my bed to avoid touching the one leaning over
me and went around the one in the middle of the room to
stand at the foot of my sister's bed, which was near the
window and another shadow person. I could see my sister
lying next to this "thing" that I thought was her. I could
see an impression on the bed where the thing was sitting,
like it had weight to it.
That was it for me, I closed my eyes and ran past all the
shadow people to my parents' room and when we came back,
there was only my sister sleeping in there. I had never
heard of shadow people at that time, but that is what I
called them, so the first time I heard about shadow people
in books or online, I wondered if anyone had ever
experienced what I did.
But so far, all that I have read or heard about on talk
radio, no story is like mine. Usually people see them out of
the corner of their eye or moving across the room, but never
just standing like mannequins. It was almost like I was in
another place and time was standing still. But why was one
on my sister's bed, and why did it almost look like her?
Another weird thing was, my sister usually did have braids
in her hair because she liked the way it made her hair look
when she took them out. But this night she didn't. It was
almost as if it was trying to look like her.
Haunted Cemetery
by ritad
While in high school a few people got together and started
spending all their time visiting haunted places in the area.
Two of us are now telling others about what we have seen.
There is a cemetery in a near-by town (for the safety of
others, we will not tell names because the neighbors like to
chase people out with guns). It is the only place that all
of us agree is truly haunted. To clarify things, there were
about 30 of our friends involved. However, we will not
discuss what they claim to have happened while we were not
there because we do not know that it happened. We will tell
you a few of the things that have happened to us over the
past 3 years. The first time we went to this place was
Halloween night (I know it's corny, but it's true). Anyway,
one of us went into the cemetery while the other one waited
in the car with a friend. While in the cemetery, she did not
see anything. However, she smelled an overpowering odor that
smelled of, as she says, death. She also felt the feeling of
death in the air. It does not seem out of the ordinary,
true. But never since has the smell or feeling been present.
While she was in the cemetery, the ones in the car saw a
man. I was the one in the car, who is now typing this. The
other is helping me recall the events as I type. Nothing
much happened to her after that. However, I went back many
more times. I have witnessed a "ghost fog" that followed me
and a few other friends, heard voices that came from nobody,
seen the shadowy figures that followed us around, seen
people take on a change of sorts in their personality, and
once a change in their physical appearance (A friend
suddenly either got a very bad case of dry eyes or his eyes
glow red naturally sometimes). I know it all sounds crazy or
like a story, but there a too many of us that have witnessed
strange things to not have the opinion that this is one
truly haunted cemetery! |
