I wish i didn't have to believe in ghosts. I'm only 14
years old! Yet in the house where I'm typing from now has
it's own ghost.
We (my mother, father and I) have all seen or felt the
presence of a ghost. I would watch TV in my parents’
bedroom at night and I would sometimes look up and see a
kind of solid shadow. Don't get me wrong; I wasn't at all
the void of blackness that you may have read about. Just a
light shadow moving across the room. As the room was dimly
lit (the main light wasn't working) I would dismiss it as
me being tired or getting used to the dim light after
staring at the TV for a while.
But it happens quite frequently so in the end I would get
used to the ghost coming in. I knew it would sit next to
me and watch TV. I could see new indentations in the couch
and it was colder over in that area. I think he enjoyed it.
My dad has seen him wandering around the house at night
when he gets up to get the cat and dog some food. So has
my mother. She told me once, when I was a baby, she had
seen the silhouette of a man walking from our lounge
room/den to her bedroom. She had thought it was my dad but
he said it wasn't.
Also he had often come into my room and turned off my
radio. It is common knowledge that ghosts hate music, but
he seems to like annoying me by turning off my favourite
songs. I don't know.
He isn't evil; if you believe in that sort of thing
although when he is around I get that cold feeling of fear
in my heart. Or maybe that's him? He's just here. He's
friendly in a way. Just like most people, he likes to play
tricks on us. I can tell if he's in a room. It feels
different. Like a muffled sound or something. And there's
a great sadness. I want to find out about him but I don't
know where to start. Oh well.
Thank you for reading this. I know it seems a bit unreal
but even if you don't believe me, I know he's still
around. I may just be 14 but already I have had too many
ghost encounters. But this is too long already so I won't
write about them.:)
Thanks again.
