This story happened to my mum when she was a teenager, around 20 years ago. My mum and a group of her friends all told their parents that they were sleeping round each others houses. But they never did, they went and slept in a newly built house (they never broke into it, the doors weren’t even fitted, hence it being a new building).
As they walked towards the house they had decided to sleep in, one of my mum’s friends said suddenly ‘I’m not sleeping in that house.’ When they all asked why she said ‘There’s a man in the window upstairs- look!’ But when everyone looked no-one could see him. But Tina (mum’s friend) was really freaking out she was saying ‘He’s still there, look, look!’ But no-one could see him apart from her. mum said although no-one else could see this man she believes Tina because she was really hysterical. They ended up having to stay there the night because of what they’d all told their parents and they didn’t want to get found out by them.
Another ghostly experience happened to my auntie (mum’s sister) when she was a teenager, 27 years ago. She just happened to look up the stairs one day when she was walking past and saw a male toddler sitting at the top of the stairs playing with some toys. She told her parents and they said ‘You’re just imagining it.’ Then she thought nothing of it. Around four years later, when my Uncle had been born and he was around 3 years old, my Auntie was on the phone to her friend (the phone was at the bottom of her stairs) when my uncle shouted her. She looked up at him and she saw him playing with his toys. He was the exact same boy she’d seen three years earlier at the top of the stairs before he’d even been born.
Then one time she was out in the back garden on her own when she saw some children dressed in Victorian clothes talking amongst themselves. It really freaked her out and she went and told my grandparents and she was in absolute hysterics. (my mum also believes my auntie because of how upset she was) Then when my grandparents went into their attic a couple of months later they found a box with some photos in. When they showed them to my auntie she said ‘They’re the children that I saw in the garden.’ Weird?
My best friend told me this story. It happened to her Granddad when he was younger. He was a magician and was at some venue for a couple of days doing his show. Every morning on his way down the stairs there would be a woman at the top of the stairs sitting in a wheel chair. He said to her ‘Do you want me to take you down the stairs.’ But she just said ‘No, I can see a bit of the show from where I am.’ So he went to do his show. He would talk to her before the show everyday. Then on the last day, when he got down the stairs he asked someone ‘Who is that woman that’s in the wheelchair?’ Because although he talked to her he didn’t know her name. Then the person he asked said ‘Oh, I know her. She died last night though.’ But my friends granddad been talking to her that morning.
My best friend said that her Granddad wouldn’t make a story up like that and she does believe what he said. Also, her grandparents were coming back from somewhere in the middle of the night. They had to stop the car because they saw a little boy wondering across the road. When they got out the car to see where he had come from he’d disappeared.
