I have lived in this house for nine years, since
I was around 7. When we first moved in everything
was normal, but soon I started to have dreams
about a teenage girl with long dark hair in a
white dress, she seemed to have pale flushed
skin. I soon started to see her outside my
dreams, she was friendly, I guess anyway, it was
never much but I could see her, I think anyway
(when I look back on it now I cant really tell If
she was actually there or if it was just my
imagination)
in my dreams she would be sitting alone with me
in a room with stuffed toys and such, she would
say KAW-NUH (I always took this to be kanna and
that’s what I call her) like she was a little
girl, and point to herself, usually this caused
me to wake in a fright. I stopped having these
dreams at 13 and I hadn’t thought of little
kanna in a long time, until a year ago.
I
dreamed, I was in a room with light blue
wallpaper with a yellow carpet, and stuffed toys
and toy cars laid around the room, and a teenage
girl with long dark hair in a white night gown
set on the floor, she pointed to herself and
said kaw-nuh, and I replied, "yes your Kanna". She lurched up from the floor and wrapped her
hands around my neck, I couldn’t breathe and I
woke up in a cold sweat, the room was completely
dark, I looked around and wiped the sleep from my
eyes, and saw something white near my door, I
closed my eyes and when I opened them, Kanna was
standing right in front of me, she had an angry
look on her face, and she screamed very loudly,
and I shut my eyes. When the screaming stopped I
opened my eyes to see nothing. I was too
terrified to move and fell back to sleep within a
few minutes.
When I woke up there were bruises on my leg, and
neck and I had a few scratches on my arm as
well, I told my parents and showed them, and they
said it must have been the cat, but when the
bruises began to turn yellow, you could make out
five points on each side of my neck.
My mom took
me to the doctor, and he said that I could have
had an “allergic reaction” to something causing
my neck to swell leaving bruises, but I know it
was her, that girl, Kanna.
I have remembered that night ever since, always
talking to someone who isn’t there, I talk to her
like she’s a sister, because I think she’s
lonely, and when I stopped talking to her at 13
she got lonely and angry.
I haven’t had those
dreams or seen her since, but every once in a
while, when I stay up late, I can feel her
tugging at my blankets, pulling them off the edge
of my bed. I am always so terrified, I cant do
anything, my parents think I am crazy.
We still
live in this house, and I sleep in the same room,
in that same bed, and I am still terrified out of
my mind because of this.
