Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

Hi everyone, I have always believed in spirits and the paranormal. From a child my dad and grandparents told me stories of things they had seen. I myself have experienced many events in my life that would send shivers down your spine. One story in particular is what I am going to share with you.

It was two summers ago when I was on holiday visiting some family I had in India. My mum, dad, sister, brother and fiancé were with me and my family had arranged for us to rent the house next door to them so we were not all squashed in one house.

From the moment I stepped inside this house I knew something was wrong. I started to feel really ill and my body was hurting me so much. I ignored the feeling thinking it was jet lag and tried to get some sleep. I would be lying to you if I told you I had constant nightmares in this house cause I didn’t, I just kept waking up in the middle of the night with the thought that someone was watching me.

As time progressed I started to get really sick and vomiting and having a very high temperature. One night I awoke from a deep sleep and from my bed I could see into the sitting room but it was pitch black and I could see shadows moving around. I woke my fiancé and told him but he said he could see the light from the lamp outside and that nothing was moving around. I froze completely and broke out in cold sweats, I was terrified.

During this time I had my menstrual cycle twice and was extremely weak. I was not able to eat or drink and I was suffering so much. At this point I told my parents and they suggested that all the children and I go and sleep in my grandmothers house with my fiancé. We did and from that point I was better. I was no longer ill at all.

My uncle and his new wife thought I was just playing around and decided to spend a night in the room I was in and they told me they felt someone watching them all night and that they felt scared throughout the night.

When I returned home to London my mother told me she too felt someone watching her and hated being alone in that house. I still think that whatever was in that house did not want me there at all and made sure it forced me out!
