Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

What I’m telling you is absolutely true, I promise no hoax or anything! Its not that scary unless you have experienced it yourself.

I was born in the house and have always live in the room, but two years ago I woke up, I don’t know why I just felt really really cold, it was in the middle of supper, and I live in the desert so it was very unusual. I sat up and looked around. I saw something in the corner of my eye by my fire escape door so I looked over there and standing there was a man with short brown hair, a muscle shirt and baggy pants. I had just watched Boogy Man so I hid under the covers for about ten minutes and when I felt hot I came out from under the covers and the figure was gone. I thought nothing of it again until last year.

My friend Victoria had just spent the night and I was sleeping on the roll away bed in the corner like right next to my bed. I woke up to my new dog, Oreo, growling. I thought it was at some cat at first so I smacked her then right next to the other side of my bed stood the man watching me. I blinked and he was still there so I hid under my covers again. I told my parents that morning, they told me to lock my fire escape door and my windows because they were never locked so I locked them.

Nothing happened for a while and then, one night I was in my room with my new dog, Miska,and she was sitting next to me then out of the blue she started whining while I was petting her. I stopped because I thought I was hurting her or something. My door was open but I was the only one inside at the moment. Miska jumped on my lap and hid her face in my arms just as the door stopper flew away from my door and my door slammed shut. I jumped up and ran to the door. Miska, while I was doing this, was freaking out. I opened it and let Miska out with me and ran outside to where my mom was. I was shaking so badly and was pale my mom got out her phone and dialed 911. I stopped her just before she pressed the button to call. I told her what happened and she said it was just a gust of wind and said if I kept seeing things she was going to send me to the loony bin. I argued with her that is was a ghost. I let it go.

That night I had a dream about the guy I had woken up in my dream to see, the man smiling evilly at me a knife in his hand. I woke up then not sure if it had been a dream or not. I thought it had just been a nightmare so I went to sleep again and woke up that morning. I rounded up all the crosses in my house besides the one hanging in my parents room, which I only found two; a rosary and a small cross which was held by a doll and hung up both over my head. But a couple weeks before that happened my friend had spent the night and she claimed she had woken up and saw a large dark figure in my bathroom and said my dogs were growling at it. She said she tried waking me up but I wouldn’t wake up so she just fell back asleep. OK to continue with the night when I hung up the crosses that night it happened just last week I was about to fall asleep and Oreo was asleep at the end of my bed by my feet. I was trying to get to sleep. I covered up Oreo with my old small blanket and just as I was about to fall asleep Oreo began breathing heavily like it was hard for her to breath so I sat up thinking she was hot and took off the blanket. I looked above her and saw a shape like a face above her but morphed into a blur almost three seconds after I saw it – I’ve seen it many times before just never thought anything of it – it flew towards my bathroom and as soon as it disappeared Oreo started breathing normal again. I sat in bed weighing my options either to get up and run to my parents room or stay in bed. It sat there for a couple minutes, got up ran and opened my door and ran all the way to my parents room close to tears. They came and put me to bed then I couldn’t sleep so I slept on the couch with the lights on.

I will tell you more on my next haunting.
