Around five years ago my neighbor Sally was in a tragic accident and both she and her daughter Hallie died. The news shocked our street and no one truly got over it.
Sally was taking Hallie to her weekly piano lesson. It was a half hour drive away over treacherous roads and a steep up hill climb. It had been raining for weeks and with the sub zero temperatures it had turned to ice. Too cold for snow. As you can probably guess, Sally took a bad turn and her car collided with a tree and it rolled down the hill, Sally died instantly, Hallie was rushed to the hospital as she was still alive. In the hospital she profusely said she didn’t want to die, but she did, minutes later.
Six months later their house is empty, but I can sure hear Hallie. I cannot understand it. My daughter, after her viola lesson, came in awfully upset, “mom, mom” she cried. I asked her what on earth was wrong. She answered and a chill ran up my spine, “mom I just saw Hallie.” I screamed. I knew it could not be true but I had heard her voice so often over the last few months. I asked what she was doing, my daughter (Sharon) answered, “she was sitting by her veranda and called over to me, “I don’t want to die.” I screamed and held Sharon close, we wept in each others arms for hours.
Two months later, we had not seen anything strange in the months following the incident, but Sharon was constantly on edge. I worried for her mental health. She slept rarely and ate nothing but tomato ketchup sandwiches, incidentally Hallie’s favorite food. Soon Sharon refused to go to school, She would just stay in her room and watch crap on TV. What was wrong with her?
My beautiful little girl had turned into a monster! One day I went to her room and found her face down on the bed. I thought she was dead. I screamed. I cried. I fell to my knees. Sharon twisted her body towards me. I screamed again. She was unrecognizable, her once golden hair hung lank and straight, her face had lost its color, the skin seemed to hang from her cheek bones. She didn’t look my daughter she looked like Hallie, “oh my god, Sharon what has happened to you?” She looked at me and whispered, “don’t let me die.” I screamed and shook her, “what is wrong with you? Sharon!” I kept screaming her name, it was weird but I knew what had happened, Hallie had taken over my Sharon’s body, had turned Sharon into her.
One year later, after that day my life has changed. Sharon is in a psychiatric hospital, but getting better, her normal healthy self. Spiritualists drove Hallie’s spirit out. It seemed that she didn’t want to die. She fed off someone else’s life. Sharon still has nightmares, but its over now, and I leave you on this note, never be skeptical of the dead, they are with us and can do truly terrifying things. A true story, a terrifying story, a death story.

Scary!
WOW THAT WAS A REALLY INTERESTING STORY AND I’M GLAD THAT UR DAUGHTER IS SAFE =)
That is really sad.
Your neighbours daughter died fighting death. She couldn’t accept. That is why her spirit turned selfish. And took your child. Keep praying for both your daughter en this poor girl.
Take care!
god bless!!
I’m sorry you have gone through this, it is a very sad story, always made more so when children are involved.
It’s often made me wonder… the many people in psychiatric hospitals, who claim to hear voices, etc…how many of them are somehow being disturbed by spirts – either evil or not?
that is like really interesting!i’ve never heard anything like it!that must have been really freaky for a mother!
Though an extreme reaction to spirit entry, this is actually very common. Most people don’t realise that ‘others’ are present in them and think what they do is just them.
When a spirit enters you at birth, how do you know it isn’t you?
New entries are easier to detect. Pushing and pulling to do things you’d normally not do are alot easier to spot.
I really feel for you and those who are under heavy demonic/spirit attack. They are usually shunned by the ones who could help them the most, those with the Sword.
You need someone who is anointed to do the exorcism. His/her angel from God will remove the spirit to a resting place and can make the spirit comply by working with angels and the Holy Spirit.
Catholics and spiritualist are both at a huge disadvantage because one in not anointed and the other has little to no empowerment, though I’m sure both are well intending.
im sorry to hear your daughters ill have you considered maybe hallies death effected her more than she let on and mentally she has been trying to cope with it by becoming hallie as a way of letting her live on anyway i hope she gets better soon
im really sorry about what happened to sharan i hope shes alright tell her from me to keep smiling
