I’ve had this creepy story year 2001, I was 16 years old that time. Its vacation from school so I went in my grandmother’s house to spend my vacation there for a month. I have a very close relationship with my grandma, for she took good care of me when I was a child. They say I am her favorite granddaughter of all. (About the house) It is a big bungalow house and only my grandma and my uncle living there. The house is too big for the three of us, and right from the very first day, I feel something strange and scary.
It’s 10 pm and I’m preparing for sleep to rest my very tired body, then after a couple of hours I was awaken, I was shocked when I noticed that my bed is shaking. I feel so cold and I can’t even move my body. That thing lasted for 30 seconds… After that incident, I just cried and I choose to leave the lights on.
After a week something very sad happened, my grandmother died. I’m in my friend’s house that day, and it will took 2 hrs of travel for me to get back in my grandma’s house. I’ trembling when my uncle called me to tell me what had happened, I can’t believe of what he has said…
After 6 hours about 5 pm I Arrived. I saw my grandma’s coffin from the entrance door, but I didn’t continue to get closer. Honestly, since childhood I have this manner that whenever there’s a funeral, I don’t look at the dead body inside a coffin. I’m scared to look at them, I don’t know why… Maybe because of the horror movies I have watched (I really love horror films). And now I can’t even look at my own grandmother lying in there…
After the 2 day funeral, I feel something unexplainable. I can’t eat, I can’t sleep, my heart sometimes beat so fast as if that I am scared of something. And when I look at the mirror, I saw my skin colored a bit grayish and yellowish (like the color of a dead being) and my lips are a bit purple in color. My heart beats so fast and I feel nauseous. I don’t know why it happened to me. I ran to find my uncle but I can’t find him so I go outside the garden to look for him. Then suddenly I felt dizzy, I closed my eyes for a while and when I opened my eyes, I can’t see anything. All turned in black, and wherever I point my eyes, all I see is darkness.
I choose to stay calm though I’m so nervous, I slowly step my foot and touch everything around me to find the door to get inside the house. Surprisingly when I found the door and stepped my feet inside, all came back to normal. I can see now. I stood at the door for a while to take a deep breath. And when I look back outside, not so far I saw a womanlike shadow standing in the garden.
After that I prayed, I hold the rosary and the bible very tight, and my sickness last for almost a week. Thankfully everything gets back into normal after that.
Do you think it’s my grandmother? Can someone explain to me the reason for what had happened to me? This story really happened and not just an imagination.
Thanks for reading my story.

i think it is ur grandma. like u said, u were her favorite grandaughter. maybe she cant accept that she cant be with u anymore or something like that. she could be around u but u cant see her. pray for her so she could rest in peace.good luck.
i understand about not wanting to see a dead relative. i didn’t go to my own mother’s funeral because i didn’t want to see her dead. i want to remember them when they were alive. as for not feeling well, you are probably grieving and it has affected you that way. she could have come back and her energy has caused some of these things. try to relax and ignore it. think good thoughts and talk to her, she loves you and always will.
i love horror movies too.now i just want to say im sorry for your lose.how you felt about your grandmother is almost how i felt with my uncle but i cried for 4 days.for me i dont think it was your grandmother no offence.or maybe she was inside you when you were grayish looking.i hope it was her who you saw.have you seen the lady since?thanks for the story.
You are only feeling sad for your grandmother and her death make you week in sorrow as she was very close to you
in the garden you were week so all of sudden you fainted but this is as normal as any thing but not a paranormal activity atall.
Hi Caren.
I am sorry for your loss, it is very sad to loose a grandparent. Actually, I think what happened to you is nothing paranormal. Remember, you were not there when she passed away, so you did not have the time to say goodbye. Also, her death came as a great shock to you, and unexpected. I think the loss of your favourite grandma traumatised you so much that you lost your appitite and also gave you insomnia. Now the lack of food and a good night’s sleep, will definitely make you dizzy and nauseous, especially when you step out of the house in the bright sunlight and fresh air.
I know how u feel on that. My Grandma died on Dec.26, 2010 and some of the same stuff happened to me. I could barely walk to her coffin to see the body, became very angry at times, and am still upset with some relatives that have acted inappropriately about their inheritance and the way they talk about it. I even had chest pains and thought I was gonna lay in my chair and die, but it didn’t happen. I prayed several times and my life flashed before my very eyes. Now I know my mission is to live on for what time I have left to pray and do God’s good work as much as I can. When the Lord calls me home, I go then to see my Grandma. But only when that happens.
