Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

This “haunting” was one of many sightings that my family and I have seen. Things of this nature always seems to find us it makes me wonder if something is wrong with us, if it is the same thing following us or if its just in our imaginations.

Well first let me tell you a little about my family. I have an 11 year old son and my husband. My son and I have always had a sense for things. I believe it was a gift from my mothers side. Once these events started to unfold I started asking around and found were not the only ones in our direct family that has these different senses.

In about 2003 my boyfriend and I decided to move back to California where I’m originally from. Its a place called Wasco. When we first moved there we were living with my mother and eager to move out. We found this rinky little house in an alley that we moving into right away because we were desperate for our alone time. Once we moved in we realized how run down this house was and found another apartment on the other side of town closer to my mothers house. We were so excited to be moving into a two bedroom apartment with A/C and not having a slum lord was great.

Then we started to notice weird things happening right when we moved in but chose to ignore them.Things would happen like I would be vacuuming and the vacuum would get unplugged even though there was still a lot of slack, to hearing weird noises and blaming it on my then 4 year son and neighbors, seeing someone in the apartment when one was there. The really weird things started to happen to my son.

One night my husband came home from work around 130a and I would have dinner ready for him and wait so we can spend some time together. One night my son came out crying that there was a man in the closet and he didn’t want to go back in there. So we thought like any child, he was having a bad dream so we let him sleep with us. After that we had such a problem with him going to bed. So my boyfriend told him that it was a dream and to prove to him he would stay in there till he fell asleep. My husband then closed the closet door and sat in a chair right next to the bed. All of a sudden the closet door slid open My son screamed “Look dad there’s the man in the closet LEAVE ME ALONE MAN! LEAVE ME ALONE!!” Then my boyfriend in disbelief closed the closet and again it opened by itself. My boyfriend then grabbed our son and went to our room and my son never slept in that room again.

The next day my boyfriend explained what had happened to him, so when he went to work I decided to send my son to my mothers house around the way. I then went home and laid on the bed thinking “the closet door opened, yeah right” as I laid there I started to fall asleep, once I was just about to totally fall asleep I felt someone punch the bottom of the mattress. At first I thought I was dreaming so I stayed awake for awhile and started drifting in and out of sleep again a second time I felt the mattress get hit again so this time I though someone had broke in the house and was hiding under the bed. I then jumped off the bed down to the floor and looked under the bed ready to fight for my life to find nothing under there.

After that night things seemed to get worse. I would see a black shadow move from one room to the other. I decided that since it only seems to happen when were by ourselves I wont be by ourselves anymore. I started to baby-sit this little boy the same age as my son. My husband and I would think that they would try to get in our room because the door to our room was hard to open and shut and we could hear that the door was opening/shutting from the living room. We would tell the boys don’t go in our room without us there, but we would still hear the door open and shut. So we tried to snick up on them to catch them in the act, when we went around the corner the boys were hiding under the bed like they saw someone enter our room. So my boyfriend and I barged in the room ready to fight the intruder what we saw was crazy it look like a shadow in daylight, I didn’t know what to think other than telling it “Your not welcomed here” and it disappeared.

After that little things would happen here and there we learned to live with it and move on.

Then on my boyfriends birthday we had a small celebration and BBQ for him. We were drinking and having a good time. His friends decided to leave before it got later. So they left around 2:30ish. I then remember looking at the clock around 3a and asked my boyfriend if he was hungry. He then looked at me and my little sister with these crazy black eyes keep in mind he has green eyes and when I looked in his eyes I couldn’t even see a pupil. He then starts yelling at me telling me “HUNGRY, DOES IT LOOK LIKE I’M HUNGRY?” I though he was playing at first and laughed at him and told him, “Yes it looks like your hungry that’s why I asked.” He looked at me like we was angry with me like he wanted to kill me or hurt me. My little sister said “What’s wrong with you” and he turned to look at her and she saw his eyes and freaked out. He then started to ramble things about the color red the numbers 6 and 3 and kept asking me the same question every 10 minutes. But I cant remember what the question was. I was so nervous that he was going to kill us I told him that I would kill him first if he put his hands remotely close to our son or my sister I even called my cousin to come help me in case we had to hold him down.

I went to the patio to smoke a cigarette and he followed me asking me all these weird questions like who was I, what was I doing there and at one point he looked me dead in the eyes and asked if I believed in God. I told him that I believe in God, Jesus Christ and the holy ghost to the fullest. He then laughed at me and said do you really think he can save you. I then began to pray and all of a sudden when I looked at my boyfriends eyes, color came back to them and he pointed to an empty field by where my mother lives and said “Do you see him, the guy dressed in red” and then got up and went to our bedroom. This was about 9 am. I went into the room and asked him are you ok? he said “Yeah I’ll be out there with you guys in a bit. Why?” I told him “Do you know what time it is” I asked him this because we had black-out curtains in our room He said “Yeah its about 3 am my friends just left and I wanted to relax a bit before I ate” I was like what? I told him the time and he got up and walked to the living room not believing me he said I swear just 10 min when by, the same amount of time that would go by when he would keep asking me that question over and over again. All four of us were in shock as to what the heck just happened.

After that my boyfriend said he wanted to go back home to NM, so we did. We left all are stuff behind and packed only my sons things.

No one really understood why we left. I was starting to get involved with the wrong people there at the end because I started to use meth so I can stay up to protect my son and used that as an excuse as to why we left.

When I would tell people this story they would blame it on the meth but my boyfriend was never a user and I wasn’t using meth till after all this started and quit when I moved back to NM and never touched the stuff again.

I’m a little nervous because four years had went by and we are now purchasing a mobile home. Weird stuff started happening again about 2 years after we moved in. I keep trying to tell myself its all in my head, but then my boyfriend told me one day that he felt someone pull on his leg one night now I don’t know what to think. other than I don’t want to go threw this all over again!!!!!!
