Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

First off id like to say these events are true and I have to say I don’t really scare easily and I’ve never actually seen a ghost or spirit and never really believed in them until strange things started to happen in my house. Let me give you a little history about myself. I grew up in a good Christian environment I went to Christian school most of my life until I got older and started hanging with the wrong crowd started getting kicked out of school, smoking and drinking, no hard drugs mostly weed and beer. Anyway I tell you this because I think my sudden lifestyle change with the all the bad things I was doing and all the pain I put my family through somehow invited evil into my life.

I started to feel like there was a dark cloud always hanging over me, just a very bad feeling. One night I was at home it was about two in the morning I stayed up late watching TV my parents were in the back in their room asleep of course and I couldn’t sleep. I turned the TV off and kinda laid there on the couch trying to go to sleep when all of a sudden I got real nervous and scared. For some reason I sat up on the couch and heard foot steps behind me coming from the dining room and seeing how the hall door was closed and that was the only way to get in the dining room and I didn’t hear the door open, I automatically got scared, too scared to turn around and see what it was.

I glanced at the TV screen which served as a mirror because the TV was off. In that TV screen was a reflection of what was behind me in the dining room which was about 10 feet away. And what I saw I will never forget, I get chills right now as I’m typing this story. It was a figure of what I thought was a man about 7 feet tall and very muscular, I couldn’t see any facial features because it was all black kinda like a shadow. When I saw this in the TV screen I froze stiff as a board and I remember not being able to scream or speak for that matter, nothing would come out.

I heard the floor crack with another foot step from this thing and saw it was coming closer to me. I finally turned around to see this thing with my own two eyes and there was nothing there. I looked back at the TV screen and there it was. For some reason I could only see it in the reflection of the TV. I shook my head and rubbed my eyes to make sure I was awake. And that’s when it happened. I heard the most awful, evil, satanic laugh from this, what I now believe to be a demon. I couldn’t handle that so I finally was able to scream, and scream I did in a loud voice for my mom, dad to wake up. I even started to bang on the wall and got no response and that just made it worse. This demon began to laugh at me and this might not make sense but at that moment an overwhelming feeling came over me, a feeling of despair and sadness and loneliness.

I mustered my courage up and got up and ran through the dining room, almost kicked the door in trying to get it open, banged on my parents door, finally woke my mom up and explained to her what had happened and explained that I had been yelling and banging on the walls like a crazy man to wake her up and how she didn’t hear me. I’ll never know cause she’s a real light sleeper, any little noise and she wakes up.

I went to the bathroom to wash my face and noticed that I had tears streaming down my face but it was weird cause I hadn’t been crying it was like they were calming tears really strange. But me and my mom talked about it most of the night and she told me that maybe I should change my life, that maybe this was some sort of sign a sign of things to come if a didn’t turn my life around, hell, demons. I have stopped doing evil things and have started to go to church on a regular basis and me and my family are closer than ever. I feel like that heavy cloud has been lifted off of me, I now have a better attitude towards life and family. This event changed my life. I know now that there are things out there that we cant explain because I know that what I saw was real and I will never forget how scared I was that night. Thanks for reading my true life tale of evil.
