Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

I was alone in my house in the early evening, it would have been about eight. I was reading in my study, my parents and siblings were all out and I’d opted to stay in the house alone. I didn’t feel like going out at the time. My border collie Tess was lying by my feet as I was reading.

There are steps from my study that lead into the sitting room. Suddenly without any warning my dog tess leaped to her feet and ran to the top of the steps. I’d never seen her behave this way before. The hackles on her back raised and she bared all her teeth and began to drool. She was growling and snarling and I ran to her. I spoke to her but she didn’t appear to here me, she moved her head from one side of the room to the other. Like she was following someone.

She then ran to my kitchen which joins onto my sitting room and did the exact same thing. When she reached the kitchen wall she relaxed, her hackles fell she stopped growling. She then sat in the kitchen, I sat next to her and she remained in a protective position. I was scared and felt ill at ease. I sat with her a while and within fifteen minutes she abandoned the kitchen and returned to the study. I stayed with her, it felt safer that way.
