I have always been a firm believer in all things
paranormal but never thought I would come into contact
with anything. That was until last month! I often visit
this site and think to myself when I read stories what
immense fear some people must have felt. Now I know
myself. Anyway, on to my story :)
Last month I was staying in a friends house on a usual
cold January night. I remembered that my mum had asked me
to go home and walk the dog with her at half seven.
Obviously, I obliged. She doesn't really like walking my
dog when my dad works the night shift and it's dark in
case any other dogs are about.
My friend and I were in the middle of telling each
other stories about what we had been doing over the past
couple of weeks, when I looked at my watch and realised
that it was half past seven. I only live literally a five
minute walk away from her so I quickly got up, grabbed my
coat and told her I would be back soon.
Once I got to the house, I entered through the front
door and proceeded into the living room. Mum wasn't
anywhere around. I back tracked a little and shouted
upstairs to see if she was getting ready, no reply. I
then proceeded back into the living room and through to
the kitchen to see if she was putting the lead on the dog,
shouting her the whole time, in case she left without me.
As I reached the kitchen, I realised that that too was
empty, and the light was on. Normal for my mum when she
goes out because she likes to make it look like someone's
home. I decided to give up and go watch TV until she
decided to turn up again. As I was about to leave the
kitchen, I heard footsteps at the side of the house. 'Of
course!' I thought. Whenever she walked the dog and was
waiting for me to hurry up and get my shoes on or
something, she would wait outside at the side of the house
so the dog didn't start getting impatient.
I opened my back door (I'll just explain the scene to
you here.) As you walk out of my back door, you are
facing my back garden. Then if you turn left, it takes
you to the side of my house. Now, in the winter, it is
REALLY dark down here, I mean, you put your hand in front
of your face, you wont see a thing! That's basically
because dad had two huge wooden gates attached to the
front of the house to make the driveway smaller. That
way, anything behind them is just covered in blackness. I
then proceeded to walk to the side of the house talking to
my mum as I was approaching the turn to get to her. Just
the usual 'why didn't you wait in the house, I thought
you'd gone'. Well, I got half way through that sentence
anyway. As I turned the corner, I saw a young girl,
around the age of about 20-21, but she was white, I mean
EVERYTHING was white. The hair, the face, the clothes,
EVERYTHING. I was routed to the spot and the tears were
literally streaming out of my eyes. I could see directly
through her to the gate that was behind her. That wasn't
all though, I was about to get another shock. Remember me
mentioning I could here footsteps which made me proceed
outside? I managed to look at her feet, she didn't have
any. She was about five inches off the floor. The dress
that she wore stopped at the knees and her feet just
weren't there. From the ankles down, nothing! I couldn't
move, I was terrified. That was until she started to
float towards me, staring me directly in the eyes. I then
noticed that her eyes were just a white pupil with pin
point green in the middle. That was enough for me to get
my ass back in the house.
I ran straight back round the
house and as soon as I had my back to her I could hear the
footsteps again! I ran in the door, locked it (yeah good
one Donna considering they can pass THROUGH things) I was
scared, so I had an excuse! I then ran into the living
room, closed the kitchen door and curled up in a ball on
the couch until my mum came home.
She told me when she finally did arrive (which seemed
like an eternity) that she had actually heard footsteps
herself and thought it was me coming in the back way. She
had just shrugged it off and proceeded the same way I did,
but didn't encounter a thing! Spooky eh?
So if ever you're in the house alone and you hear
footsteps outside, I suggest you stay in the comfort of
your home, you could be in for a nasty shock!
