Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

It seemed that all the kids in my family had noticed some sort of ghostly like activity in our home. some were images and others were just finding objects in places we normally did not place them. Well, as I decided to go to bed this night I was already afraid of what was there but I could not see. It was already bad enough that I slept on a trunnel bed (it was the one that fits under the day bed) because it made all sorts of creepy sounds in the night.

After falling asleep for the evening, I was awakened like I normally was to have to go to the bathroom. The time was around ten to eleven at night, but I had to go. So I get up and go to the bathroom and stay in there a while to try and regain the courage to leave. Our house was set up to where all of the kids rooms were up stairs and the stair case met up to the bathroom doorway, and the hall way to my room. I always had feelings of something waiting for me when I left the bathroom and hesitated to leave when finished.

When I Opened the door my eyes had to adjust to the darkness as they normally would. by that time I was petrified. But instead of running like I normally would, I decided to show  the ghost or entity that I was not afraid of its presence. Down the hallway we had a vacuum cleaner  that had a bear like cover over it and that bear stood eye to eye with me at the time. So what I was going to do was hit the bear to show the thing I was tuff. I had started walking into the dark of the hallway and when I came to the bear I stopped. For some reason I could not look it in the face like I normally could, but I punched it square in the nose. I felt just fine and dandy after doing so. I started off to my room again and jumped onto the trunnel bed that squeaked and moaned like it would normally do when I climbed into it. I felt so good that I just decided to look into our closet direction of the room and seen nothing.

After doing that as I turned over to look at my brother in the bed, but I saw it. The image I saw was an etchy rough image of some misshapen doglike creature that was hopping beside my bed. I was so terrified of the sight that I pulled all four corners of my fitted sheet off of the mattress, and just buried my self in the center and just bellowed out a scream for help. To my surprise the image did not make a noise and I could not make out a single facial image for the short time I seen it, so I did not know for sure what the hell it was, and at that point did not even care.

The next morning I asked why nobody came to check on me and every one responded that the were sleep and did not here me, not even my brother in the same room. I guess these ungodly creatures like to face one alone and when the know no one else will come to see what was going on.

I believe we had some sort of spirit living in our house but it never made itself clear on why it was there or what exactly it was. It was just creepy being there while we lived there. and this was just one of the few things that occurred in the house that really got to me.
