Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

I’m really frustrated and confused about the things that have been happening in my apartment. Ok so I’ll start off by telling you how it all happened.

I have been living in this apartment ever since I was a baby and I have never experienced anything before. My house is actually a studio so when I moved in they decided to build a little room in the living room so my house could have two bedrooms. The superintendent in my building said that they had to take it down and they took it down in 2006.

A year or two after that is when I started experiencing things, especially when my new bed came in and we made another room. So this room was separated from my living room by big heavy curtains because they didn’t allow walls and doors to be built. So the first night that I had my bed I was listening to music when I started seeing a strange flickering light under my door curtain (yea that’s what I call it ha-ha) and I thought it was my parents TV that was turned on (their room is basically right next to mine). So I waited a lot and I still kept seeing this flickering light so I decided to investigate and I checked under my parents door. It was pitch black no light whatsoever and I waited like five minutes just to make sure.  And it couldn’t have been the light coming from my window because it would’ve reflected on the walls and the shades and the curtains were down so there was no light. So I leave it as it is and go to sleep.

The next night the same thing happened and it kept on for like a week. About three months later I have another experience. I was walking by my dresser and I noticed something. A really small skeleton like hand. At first I think well maybe it was my brother (which is stupid because my brother’s like 16 and he has a bigger hand than me) but I call him over and show him and told him to put his hand next to it to see what happens. And his hand is still way bigger. Then I put my hand next to it and my hand was bigger. Then my brothers like “Are you trying to scare me?” And of course I said no but he didn’t believe me.

My next experience happened like a week after that one. I had this little Sponge Bob gameboy my dad gave me (I love spongebob ha-ha) and it came with a case. So it got lost and I was looking for it in my drawer. I found the case and I took it and left it on top of my dresser. I left my room to tell my brother something and when I got back the case was gone. I thought it fell to the floor or something but I checked under my dresser and anywhere near my dresser. So I asked my mom and everyone in the house if they took it and they said no. But  when I checked my drawers again it was in the same place I found it.

A few nights later or a few weeks later I don’t remember that well, I was listening to music on my psp on my couch in the living room. The TV was on even though I wasn’t really watching it. So I look to my psp and its getting discharged so I curse and look for the charger. This was at like 1 am at night everyone was asleep. When I turn around this tall black shadow comes from my room and passes by the couch across from the couch I was sitting on and disappeared when it reached the table. It was a woman because although it was dark, I could see her flowing hair, the outline of it moving. I just froze and my heart was beating fast and all of a sudden the room felt cold.

A few months past and another experience happened. I was talking to my brother in my parents room and I heard a loud crash in the living room. So I went to check and my brother’s picture was on the floor. And the strange thing was that the frame was broken but not the glass. The picture was hung on the wall above one of the couches and it couldn’t have rolled down the couches because there’s a space big enough for me to put my arm through and if it would’ve fallen it would’ve fallen in the space. Even if it rolled off the couch it would’ve landed a few feet away from the couch. But it landed near the other couch to far away for it to just roll off of the couch.

A year passed and no experiences, and I actually wanted to have one. So recently I was watching TV like at 1 in the morning and I heard water running in the bathroom but I didn’t want to count it as something paranormal because there’s a strong possibility it was just the water pipes malfunctioning. But I grabbed my camera and snapped some pictures in pitch black to see if I find something. I thought I did but I debunked it later for being the shadow of a painting.

I am really frustrated and confused about why nothing has happened recently and I am confused about what’s happening in my house. If you can help me please comment and give me some advice or information on what’s happening. Thanks a lot.
