Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

It all started when I was six years old. I was really lonely as a child, my parents neglected me a lot for my younger sister, so I was left by myself; I used to have imaginary friends, which I have recently discovered weren’t so imaginary.

I would always play in the backyard for hours by myself. We lived out of town, in a forest cabin, we mysteriously won the lottery one day, so we didn’t have to work. My parents loved the forest so they thought it would be nice to live there. I never liked it because I always saw things in the forest… I never thought much of it though.

While I was playing outside with my ball and it rolled into the forest. Hesitating, I followed. I slowly walked in and picked up my ball, for it to just be slapped right out of my hand. Shocked, I took a step back. The wind then blew in my hair and I heard someone whispering my name. It got louder and louder. And then I saw two kids standing before me. One was a boy, who looked about eleven, and another was a girl who looked the same age as me. They smiled at me when I looked at them, and the girl picked up my ball. I smiled back and took my ball. I knew they were nice people. I assumed they were living next door.

The boy’s name was Thomas and the girl’s was Britney. We talked in the forest for a long time until it was time for them to go home. When I told my parents that I had made new friends from next door, they told me that no one lived next door and they hit me for talking to strangers, my parents had never been abusive towards me until we moved into this town, what was happening to them? I ran to the house next door to see my new friends… no one lived there. I looked through the window and there was nothing inside.

I walked into town and went to the police station and told them what happened with my parents. I then got placed into a foster home and I was safe away from my parents. Over time I had forgotten about my mysterious friends, until recently when I decided to do some research on the forest and the town.

Two children had been brutally murdered by their abusive parents, 20 years before I moved to that town. They were slaughtered in the house, they had written messages in their blood, and then taken them outside and performed a ceremony. their parents then got put in jail for 25 years to life, to this day they believed their children were possessed. Researching the house that my parents bought horrified me when I had uncovered that my parents were murdered few days after I left.

I never plan on returning to that town again.
