A Friendly Visit
South Australia
January 2001
For some reason I have always had alot of paranormal activity surrounding me. Friends used to refuse to sleep in my home because they were so scared. I have so many experiences to tell you about but this one is by far the freakiest.
When I was about 7 years old ( 17 years ago) I woke up in the middle of the night to see my dads friends wife standing in my bedroom. She was in the corner waving at me. Being only very young and half asleep I was sure I was dreaming but while I was looking at her the telephone suddenly started ringing.
My dad raced up and answered the phone and I could hear him talking into the phone. The lady in my bedroom had disappeared so I got up to see who was ringing at that time of night. My dad told me he had to go out for a while, he would be back soon. My older brother was still asleep so I just went back to bed.
I woke up when my dad got home and he was crying. When I asked what was wrong he told me that his friend had just strangled his wife to death. I told him that I had just seen her in my room but he didn't believe me.
The next morning I woke up really early, I was still pretty freaked out, and went to watch some television. Next thing I saw was a cigarette smoke mist float past the television. I screwed my eyes up and hid underneath the blanket on the couch and when i opened my eyes again it was gone. I really believe that this lady came to say goodbye to me, she really liked me a lot, and although I look back now and feel happy that she chose to say goodbye, it really did scare the pants off of me when I was younger.
