Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

Years ago, my uncle told me a story of something that happened to him in our old house. I had had several strange experiences in this house which was locate just beyond the Pocomoke Forest. If you Google Pocomoke Forest in Maryland, you will come up with a lot of ghostly tales of it.

Anyway, my uncle was sleeping on the sofa one night. He had been drinking. He saw a woman in blue floating toward him. She was wearing a pretty blue dress, she was elderly and and had long gray hair. She was floating above him when he got up and she began floating toward the kitchen. Once in the kitchen, the back door swung open and he saw a little boy run across him and run behind the washer and dryer. Thinking that it was his younger brother, he yelled his name, but when he went to look, there was no one there.

The very next night, he was sleeping on the sofa again. This time, he hadn’t been drinking. He was under aged anyway. He woke up suddenly to see the same woman floating toward him again! This time, he was terrified and ran. When he told my grandmother about it which is his mother, she said that her grandmother was buried in a blue dress. My grandmother’s grandmother raised her and died of tuberculosis when she was in her mid twenties. She went and found a picture of her and my uncle looked like he had seen a ghost! He is only 7 years older than me, so being young, but old enough to sense what was happening here, it gave me the creeps. He told my grandmother that the woman in the photo was the woman he saw floating in the blue dress.

I still wonder what it was that she was trying to show him or what kind of message she was sending. My uncle has had paranormal activity surrounding him all his life. Some really creepy things. This is the only thing that I don’t find really that creepy, but it did freak me out a little at that time to find out that I wasn’t just having an overactive imagination; as I’d had experiences in the same house, but didn’t feel pleasant at all.
