Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

The following story happened to me about a year ago. Now how this all began is I was twelve years old, and my family and I had just moved down to a town near the Gulf of Mexico, in the lone star state. My dad had found a house for us just before we moved. We never really got to see much of it until we were already moved in. All we knew was that it was in close proximity to the beach, and was a bright, and when I say bright, I mean bright shade of Green.

Anyway, when my family and I were all moved in, and it was still summer, my mom and I began to do what we usually did at our old home… clean it. While we were cleaning the kitchen we found, pardon the graphicness, bird urine stained into the cabinets. I also, whilst cleaning the railing on the stairs found a small bird skeleton on the top of door.

Our first unusual experience was when our neighbor came over to the house trying to sell us Avon. She was a short elderly woman who had grown up in town and knew about the lady who used to live in the house. It turned out that there had been two other tenants before she moved in, a fraternity, and the man who had built the house. The fraternity had abused the house and held many large parties. And the man who had built the house, built it for the lady who had lived in the house not so long before we came along. Unfortunately the lady who had lived in the house died in a car crash near the house. Our neighbor had told us that people had been scared to go into the house for a long time after she died. Before we moved in, it had been empty.

Our neighbor also told us that the lady that had lived in the house before us had a large, eagle looking bird as a pet. She let the bird go where ever it pleased, and our neighbor told us she had seen the bird and described it as hating cats.

Our next experience included seeing cats on our front lawn, every night. Then I heard music outside my door one night. I shook it off, because I thought it was just my radio. Though the next morning my mom told me that she had heard people talking last night, and went to tell me to go to sleep, but when she went to check on me, I was fast asleep.

Then in the mail, we started receiving “her” mail, which were magazines for Wicca, and witch like objects.

Our last four experiences were when we tried to exterminate the roaches that seemed to come from nowhere and they seemed to never go away, no matter what and when my mom woke up early, and when she got downstairs, she saw a girl my age engulfed in light, laughing and skipping towards my room. She tried to talk to the girl but she just laughed and said, “You know… He’s really nice.”

Then I was on a site not unlike this reading ghost stories. I went to the bathroom, and when I returned, the computer was turned off.

The last experience we had in the house before we moved was that every night I started hearing the voice of a girl in my head, they didn’t stop ’till we moved, and I swear that before we left the drive-way as I was about to get into the moving van I felt stopped by an unseen force then I heard her voice saying “Baby, come visit me some time ok?” I awkwardly said I would, and then I felt a cold chill on my cheek. I have since not returned and someone else has moved in.
