Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

The year was 1974. Me and my husband had just settled down for the night, It was 11 pm and I really wasn’t tired yet but my husband was so I got into bed anyway.

I was just laying there for about a half an hour when I saw a weird light on the ceiling. I thought there was someone outside shining a flashlight through the window which was above the headboard of my bed so I sat up and looked out the window but no body was out there so I laid back down and that light was still there, I just stared at it. But now it started descending down towards me. As it got closer I could see a face inside of a smoky grey colored cloudy (what ever it was) and a hand and arm only up to the elbow and the hand was reaching out to me as  it was trying to get me to come to it.

By that time I was so scared that I could hear my heart pounding and I almost felt paralyzed. All I kept thinking was If I could get to the lamp switch to turn the light on this thing what ever it was would go away. I couldn’t even move to do that because I was hyperventilating from fear. I felt like I was in that fear for a good 10 minutes when I finally grabbed the lamp switch and got the light turned on.

I was in a state of shock when I looked at the clock it was 4:30 am, How could that be possible? I’m still trying to find answers. I don’t know if that thing was an alien or a ghost but what ever it was I hope it never comes back. Its been 37 years ago and hasn’t returned yet so hopefully Its long gone.
