Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

I’m going to tell about my own personal paranormal experience when I was little, about five years old, in 1996 to be exact. It happened in my own country where I was born and raised, Indonesia.

My mom and I were about to visited my mom friend’s house in the north part of the city. My mom decided to take the train to get there and we’re going to arrive at the nearest station from her friend’s house. It was my first time to take ride on a train. As we arrived I got fascinated by how massive and old the station was. It was built by the Dutch colonial government in the end of 18th century, whom still occupied my country at that time.

Suddenly my sight spotted on a little girl standing at the corner of the station. She’s 10 feet away from me and she’s probably about my age or so. She’s white with a curly long blond hair, wearing a dress from the old colonial era and holding a doll in her hands. She smiled at me and I smiled back at her. As a kid I never thought she could be a ‘ghost’, I just kept thinking she’s just like me and maybe she’s waiting for her parents. Then my mom and I left.

After visited my mom friend’s house for couple of hours, we’re about to go home and of course we had to take the train. When we entered the station again and were waiting for the train to come, I saw that little girl again on the same corner, and I spotted her crying! I instantly take a look at my mom and people around me, but they seemed unaware of the little girl. Then I shook my mom’s hand and said ‘mom, why is that little girl crying?’ and my mom said ‘what little girl honey?’ and I gestured towards the corner and said ‘that girl! look she’s crying mom,’ then my mom was shocked and said ‘there’s no one there baby, let’s go, the train is coming’ and we left.

Since then I never forgot about that little girl in my mind and as I got older I figured out she might not be a human but a ghost. I told this story to my friend and she said that there’s an old story about the station where there’s a little Dutch girl named Elizabeth who was left by her parents at the station a hundred years ago and when she was running to find her parents she was hit by the train and died. A little girl’s appearance said to be seen by the people around the station, and she’s said to be waiting for her parents to come! She might be the little girl who I saw her spirit 14 years ago. I always feel sad about the little girl, she might be just felt lonely and hurt for being left by her own parents so she tried to communicate with me.
