I’m 17 and live in a suburb in the surrounding area of Austin, Texas. I’ve seen things for as long as I can remember. Most of my paranormal contact were with ghosts. I lived in a house in the part of town that was historically where the Mexican workers lived for this rich white rancher who used to own the town. It was pretty old. Don’t know the exact year of when it was built but I had many experiences there, but none that really caused me to feel afraid.
My grandparents lived out in the country about 2 and a half hours from my house. My grandmother collected antiques. She had a dresser that had belonged to my great grandmother and was old even then. So it was built in the late 1800’s. It had a vanity mirror attached and four drawers on the sides and a long drawer in the middle of the top two. It was in a room where my grandmother kept her dolls. I never felt at ease in this room and typically, wouldn’t stay in the room or go in it alone.
One day, I must have been 11 or 12, we were up there and she was giving us what ever things we wanted to keep because she was wanting to sell some of the antiques in a shop she opened up in town. I liked the vanity and asked her if I could have it. She told me it was okay with her so my dad loaded it up in the truck. I was very excited and when we got home, my dad connected the mirror to the back of the dresser.
As time went on, I started seeing things in the mirror. Always out of the corner of my eye and never was able to see what it was exactly. I heard a lot of popping at night. I told my parents and they told me it was just my imagination and the popping was probably just the house settling. I believed them but in the back of my mind I knew it was something else.
One night, I was laying on my bed. It was a bunk bed and my sister slept on the bottom bunk, me on the top. I was watching King of the Hill and after it went off, I turned the TV off to go to see. Maybe five minutes after turning the TV off, I heard the popping and a sound of furniture groaning coming from the mirror. I looked over and saw a black figure in the mirror. Not like a reflection…it was actually in the mirror! I was trembling but for some reason, maybe fear, maybe fascination, I couldn’t look away. It shifted and glowing red circles that must of been the eyes were staring at me. I couldn’t move. The figure started scratching at the mirror and there was a sound like glass breaking, only there was no broken glass. The thing crawled out of the mirror. The light coming in through the window caught it. The skin looked extremely bumpy and it had small horns in it’s head. It had long claw on it’s feet and hands. He stared at me with an evil, toothy grin and started toward me. I started whimpering. I couldn’t only shut my eyes. I started praying and something made me open my eyes. The thing was almost to the bed. I screamed and managed to turn on the TV. The thing let out a weird cry and ran into the wall that separated the room to the bathroom. My mother ran in asking if I was okay. I knew if I told her, she wouldn’t believe me so I told her there was something on TV that scared me. She told me to not watch scary shows and to go to sleep. I nodded but I didn’t turn the TV off or go back to sleep. I covered the mirror after that.
Strange things started happening after that. There was a munching noise always coming from the wall. Like something was chewing on the wood. My dad thought there might me termites after the tiles in the bathtub fell off on to my older sister while she was taking a shower one night. He checked and sure enough, there they were. The weird thing was that we had a contract with a pest control company that sprayed for termites, ants, spiders and other insects. Our home became infested with roaches and the garage had rats. I didn’t like that house. I couldn’t stay in it alone.
When I was in seventh grade, my parents moved my four younger siblings and I to a new house on the opposite side of town. We had the house built on a lot and I was excited. I thought that maybe a new house would stop the terrors. Everything went fine at first. Then we moved the dresser and mirror to the house. I had a thing about mirrors as was to be expected and I couldn’t stand them in dark. My dad had propped the mirror facing out to the room. I got out of bed and went to turn it toward the wall. As I was turning it, it got very heavy and I heard a growl. I saw the thing in the mirror. I screamed and dropped it. It fell the carpet and shattered. I heard demonic giggling coming from everywhere. Then something whispered in my ear, “Thanks for releasing us.” My parents came in and told me I should have had them move it. I was terrified.
After that, there were certain places in the house that creeped me out that didn’t used to. I no longer felt safe. My sister’s room that was next to the room I was in when the mirror broke, was always cold and felt like someone was watching. Same with my closet. My parents bedroom and bathroom were creepy. The downstairs the dining room and living room became very eerie. I started seeing shadows dashing around outside the house.
One night, I was taking a shower in my parents bathroom and I heard a door open and cold air. Thinking it was one of my siblings, I didn’t say anything. Then the lights turned off. “HEY!” I yelled. The lights came back on. That’s when I realized I had locked the door. Suddenly a black figure pounced toward the shower and started beating on the door of the shower. I screamed. It started to open and I pulled on the door to keep it shut. The whole time I’m shrieking for my mom and crying. I heard her at the door calling my name. The figure disappeared. Trembling, I got out of the shower, grabbed a towel and opened the door for my mom. I told her everything. She rolled her eyes and sighed. “Alana, you’ve been watching too many horror movies. There’s nothing here. Nobody came in my room. I was watching TV on my bed and I hear you beating the door and screaming. Nothing happened. Finish your shower.” Then she left. I felt so scared. I heard laughing from the closet. I closed it and got back in the shower to finish.
After that, I never took a shower without closing the closet. I even slipped into a deep depression. Nobody believed me. I was terrified. I couldn’t sleep in the dark. I had to have the TV on. I still have these feelings. I’m still terrified of mirrors in the dark. What’s more, is that my youngest sister who’s nine is seeing the things too. I’m terrified. What can I do if my own family doesn’t believe me?

Listen people, we have the God-given authority to cast out these demons through Jesus’ name. Why would you hire a priest or paranormal investigators (who only makes things worse by the way) when you have the power within you to get rid of these demons.
WE ARE VICTORIOUS THROUGH CHRIST JESUS!!!!!!! When will y’all understand that! Will somebody please read the bible because mostl suggestions for getting rid of these things are not godly! When did you see Jesus call on a priest or Paranormal investigator to rid someone of demons?!
Get educated and seek truths people. Read the Word of God! I’m not making this stuff up, it’s all in the Word.
Actually Dave I agree with you for the most part.We do have God Given Authority to cast out demons and negative energy’s.However depending on how bad of a problem this is for someone sometimes it is better to have a priest or a brother in christ help someone.There is nothing wrong with that,but yes read the bible and pray before you go to bed every night.Believe that God will protect you and he will.
Carlos I know what you mean, especially in that there is power in numbers. But I just want to remind people that we have the victory through Christ no matter if your alone or with someone else on a specific cause. If only we could truly understand what it really means to be a child of God! If only we could! We have so much God given authority! People often doubt themselves and fail to realize that they can do ALL things through Christ which strengthens them.
People come up with these excuses why they can’t get rid of this problem or that situation and it baffles me all the time, do you know not who you are?!
I agree with Dave. I have no fear of the evil thats lurks everywhere. You have the power. Why have someone come in to your home, who doesnt live there, and cast out evil. That is your home, your family, your problem. I think having someone else come in, shows weakness and fear to the evil. You cant show it that. Once you do, it will never leave. You stand up, with a loud and firm voice, and tell it, ..” This is my home, you are not wanted here!!! In Gods name our saviour, I cast you back to the flames of hell!!!!!” SHOW NO FEAR!!! God Bless
hey amazing story, but we are trying to work out if its true or not. It is pretty cool and creeped me out. we had some”old croanies” in the room with no imaginations. very disturbing story. (i had a obsession with ghosts when i was little.
I totally agree with Carlos, Tina and especially Dave. As a fellow Christian we DO have the Authority and POWER to fight evil in ALL its’ forms and WE CAN send these evil angels away from us BUT, and I emphasize BUT, you must have a tremendous amount of FAITH in order to do so. I get so angry watching paranormal reality shows on television proving IF a place is haunted BUT offer NO help, whatsoever, to the homeowner, business owner or manager of an establishment. Alana Hilliard, first of all, ASK Jesus into your heart to save you from your sin and BECOME a CHILD OF GOD. In this way you IMMEDIATELY will have a child-like faith. Remember a demon is nothing more than a REBELLIOUS ANGEL (I stated earlier) &
feeds on fear. BECOME A CHRISTIAN & FEAR WILL STARVE ITSELF TO DEATH. I am writing a book about this very topic so be sure to look for it in the near future. I’m praying for you, ALANA and your younger sister, asking GOD to send a heavenly angel to protect you and your family. IS IT OK IF I USE YOUR DEMONIC ENCOUNTER AS AN EXAMPLE IN MY UPCOMING BOOK TITLED: “EARTHLY PROPHECIES”> I am willing to have you as an anonymous client if you wish. Let me know.
By the way, I have had to resort to this sort of thing myself. On one certain episode I had a painful encounter with a demon. I was praying, VERY POWERFULLY, for satan to leave my
family alone–that he was not welcome in my home. All of a sudden I felt excruciating pain on my side and when I turned to see what caused it I noticed a picture I had on my wall was now lying in front of me on the floor. A picture depicting a FAMILY BLESSING now was lying face-down on the kitchen floor that had originally been hanging in my dining room. Either satan or one of his minions hurled that picture at me at such force that the frame shattered leaving broken glass all over my kitchen floor. The blunt force left a welt but no other injuries. I refuse to give satan notoriety of any kind so I refuse to capitalize his name. GOD LOVES CHILDREN–satan hates them… Take care of business, ALANA and you will be given POWER and AUTHORITY to fight forces of evil. As of the present time I am working on two books One called EARTHLY PROPHECIES and the other titled SUPERNATURAL BONDAGE (a story that is the Oho’s version of Amityville Horror). Keep in touch as I sincerely care and am praying for you on a daily basis.

hey to whoever wrote this……i know exactly how you feel if its true because when i was a little girl my dad brought in an old mirror from the alley and i saw a demon in it,and somehow i feel like it took apart of me…
omg thats an amazing story is it true??? if it is omg they realy dont believe u wow i am so sorry i feel ur pain i never had a deamon mirror before. But i do feel at times like I am being watched and followed. WOW !!!
i agree very much with the others in that you have a god-given authority over this thing.
but, its too an extent.
i may be pagan, but i do believe in a god, so you do have spiritual help, regardless of your religion.
maybe if you confront the demon (whether with a bible or a bundle of sage or even both) it might help you along.
good luck and god bless!!!
Alana,,, very interesting story!! have you ever seen movies where the mirrors are covered with sheets??? well, there is a reason,,,, they hold negative energy…. i am very interested in Feng-shu,,,,, in all of the books i have read about it,, mirrors are negative… we dont have one in our bedroom, at all… just like fireplaces, and many other things… many things can be portals…..
No matter how spiritual you are,, anyone,,, negative energy is still all around us,, just like positive energy.. i am trying not to step on toes here,, just my opinion…..
God bless,,, ktm
Hey KNOWTOMUCH, where do you see that in the bible?
hey DAVE, did i say that i saw it in the bible???????
dont get me wrong,, i am a very spiritual person, as you will see if you read any of my posts!!!! i just feel that it could be a portal,, just like a q. board, possibly candles…. you just never know!!! i just try to stay away from negativity,, thats all,,,, didnt mean to get you all riled up!!!!!!!!
in fact,, i am very careful of what i bring into my home…….be it a mirror, or anything else…. i am just talking,,, common sense… its ok if you dont agree with me… i just hope that you dont see something looking back at you one day as you look into a mirror…..
sometimes,, i just wonder why some people are even here on this site??? do you believe in the paranormal??? on the other hand,, we all have our opinions,, dont we????
we are all human beings,,, God is the only God….. He is the one who should be on our pedestals……i will say this, as i did in another post,, it seems that some people consider themselves,, above others..( HOLIER THAN THOU)… we need to be humble, in God’s grace….
another thing,,,, we should all fear evil,, its there if we like it or not…. I do agree that if you are a true follower of our Holy Spirit,, that you are more protected,, but,,, evil can be very strong.. if you dont fear evil,, its like saying,,, oh,, i dont fear that truck thats about to run over me.. i mean,, come on,,,, we are only human……….common sense…..
God bless us all,,,,, hugs to all of you,,,, ktm
KNOWTOMUCH, I wanted to discuss this like an adult and so that’s why I questioned you. The Feng shu that that you described seemed tilted towards the occult and that’s why I question it’s biblical references, that’s all I was trying to say.
If there is any “negative” entities attracted to physical objects they do not have dominion over me, I don’t know about you, I have Jesus on my side, let us not forget “No weapon that is formed against me shall prosper” (Isaiah 54:17).
You also bring up an invalid point saying that we should “fear” evil, I don’t know which God you serve but under my God I shall fear no evil, under my God I am protected against my enemies and they availeth not over my life, like David said in Psalms 27, “The Lord us my light and my salvation, who shall I fear?”. Tell me KNOWTOMUCH, under God, who shall I fear?!
Recognize that those who dwell in Christ have dominion, power, and authority over evil. The Lord is protector and we shall not fear, He’ll never leave us nor forsake us (Deuteronomy 31:6). Remember what I am telling you.
Hi Ktm i think your long explanation is no need coz he will understand i think, make your explanation short and sweet honey!!! Anyways MIRRORS ARE FUNNY TO ME I ALWAYS LAUGH WHEN I SEE MY SELF IN A MIRROR!! With love manik!@!@!
To DAVE HI Every one has their own belief, own religion, own Gods and own names for Gods So ITS NOT THE WISE WAY TO ALWAYS SAY THE NAME “JESUS” I WOULDN’T SAY THAT I DON’T LOVE JESUS I WOULD SAY THAT I STRICTLY DISLIKE PEOPLE TRYING TO SPREAD THEIR RELIGION and always say the word Jesus like you who always includes the name “Jesus” damn it. THERE IS ONLY ONE SUPREME POWER WE DON’T KNOW WHO HE IS SO LET US CALL HIM SIMPLY AS “GOD” i hope you understand! !! !
This is not a crisis, a conundrum or a mystery.
All that is to be done to be rid of any or all demons it to INVOKE the name of Jesus.
When you feel the evil presence…..JUST CALL OUT TO JESUS, AND MEAN IT!!
Just Say: Jesus help me, Jesus help me…..and about the 10th time, this devil, demon, entity, thing, ghost, evil spirit, whatever will LEAVE !!!
AND LEAVE REAL FAST IT WILL !!
I KNOW !!
I have had to do this about 3 times in my life, and my calling upon my savior Jesus worked.
Don’t think about it. Just do this !! Jesus is there to help YOU !!
If you have issues about believing in Jesus, take them up with HIM afterwards. Until then.. HE WILL HELP YOU WHILE YOU ARE CONFRONTED WITH EVIL !!!
Dave, Not everyone believes the same way. It is fine to present your beliefs and to talk about them but please stop trying to push your beliefs on others. I did edit your comment to remove a couple things – no need to claim someone is being sassy or to call them a child – OK?
I think I have been very patient with you and others who seem only to want to preach their doctrines instead of discussing the story at hand. I am a firm believer myself in the Lord Jesus Christ, but I do not go around trying to force others to believe the way that I do. Nor do I insult others who see things differently. I understand that you probably believe that you are the one who is right about everything and everyone else is wrong but there is no need to be insulting to those with whom you do not agree.
You say you want to discuss this like adults? Then do not be condescending. And by the way the subject of discussion here is Demon in the Mirror.
Thanks Caretaker. And there is God but i don’t prefer to call him “Jesus” even though Jesus comes to me and request me to do so coz THERE’s SOME ONE ABOVE HIM WHO ACTUALLY SENT HIM! Lets cut it i am not gonna talk on this again and the topic is on about DEMON IN THE OLD MIRROR RIGHT! Thanks for reminding me Care taker
Dave,, i must say,, you remind me off my first husband!!! he also thinks that he knows everything!!!! and sassy,, yes i am,, hear me roar!!!!!!!!!!!! oh,, and calling me a child,, thats very funny, someone needs to grow up and see the big picture, and its not me.. for sure!!!
about the demon mirror,, well i had already posted about it, and i am sticking to it!!!
thanks you guys,,,, just had to get it out of my system,, you know how us women are…lol….i agree,, i dont like bullies either!!!
ok,, enough is enough,, back to the story…
God bless us all,, or Higher power, or yada-yada-yada ktm
I never thought I’d see the day that people would condemn me for telling the truth. I never meant any harm to any of you but I was commanded to show you what God has shown me through HIS WORD (not my beliefs, but the truth, unless one is foolish enough to reject truths). If you people want to go ahead and believe whatever it is you do, go right ahead. But I’m telling you, if that path doesn’t involve JESUS you are destined for spiritual death.
I’am officially done with this website,you won’t have to worry about my comments any longer, Im obviously not welcomed here. May God have mercy on all of you and I pray that one day you all will see the truth and not reject it, I pray for you all….
KNOWTOMUCH please forgive me, I did not mean to come off as an arrogant, stubborn “know it all”, Im just so determined to preach Gods Word that I may come off as such. I love you dearly and I wish you all the best, may you dwell in the house of the Lord forever. And God bless you too Caretaker, God bless you all.
PS. I didn’t mean to belittle you by calling you child; where Im from you call someone “child” if you really care about them, it doesn’t matter if your an adult of not.
Dave – no one has condemned you at all. I simply asked you to realize that not everyone believes the same way – or even sees the same “truth” – and that you should not try to force your viewpoints on others or be condescending toward them. If you want to be fruitfull in your work then I suggest that you try an approach from the perspective of love and compassion.
You think that you were commanded by God to post here yet you are through with this website?
You are welcome here and so are your views
Dave,, i do forgive you!! i understand how you feel, as i feel the same way….i used to preach to others, and found out the hard way,, thats not the way to get through.. being a loving Christian, as i am, i have learned that there are so many people that need our help and support, and we have to be more delecate about it… we have to be careful of peoples feelings….
i hope you stay on the website,,, Caretaker said it perfectly!!!! many of us have become friends, as we dont judge each other… sometimes we get close and have to bite our lip…. i have worked very hard in my life,, not to judge others,, it is hard to do at times…. as we believe with our whole hearts!!! and we want to spread the word…
i did get sassy with you,, and i am sorry for that,, i am a mature adult.. i need to act like one…..but,, sometimes we all get a little out of hand…i hope you stay, i already know that i will be going to Heaven,, possibly, sooner than i thought….
God bless you,,,,, ktm
t r bender, yeah I’m fine with including this in your book. As for Dave and the others, I am a Christian. I have been for quite some time. I’ve tried to get this thing to leave. it’s not as active but it’s still here. thanks for the support guys.
Alana,, you are still in my thoughts and prayers hun,, i have not forgotten about you!!!! keep your faith strong, and keep this at bay!!! prayers and faith do help….i think that we all have evil surrounding us at points in our lives,, its out there for sure, none of us are immune to it..
i pray and keep my faith strong on a daily basis,,, this does help to avade the evil… it will suppress it a bit… also,, coming here and having a great support system has helped me a lot…. i feel a lot of love and caring here, and i can also talk about whats going on…
please,, come here often, and talk about whats going on,, you need all of the support you can get, and you will get it here….you will also meet some wonderful friends, as i have…
take care hon,, and God bless you,,,,, ktm
