Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

I was recently extremely ill and unable to eat or even keep water down for 10 days, so was bed bound for most of it. We already know we have a spirit of some sort in our home, but this was totally different to anything I had experienced before.

The fourth day in my bed about 4 pm I started to hear a static crackling in the background and as I looked around my room I saw what looked like bronze thin tentacles in two places hovering on the ceiling. As I watched they changed shape several times and briefly took on human form with faces of women. The tentacles reached out for me and when they touched me I felt a sticky tingling. I thought I was hallucinating through lack of sleep and food, coupled with the fact I take opiate painkillers, so I told them to leave me alone and they seemed to just fade away.

That night they came back with something else, which my sister also saw. It was inside an open wardrobe and had a red face and black eyes and seemed to be trying to talk to me. This thing actually gave me the creeps and seemed evil.

Later that night my fiancé started saying things under her breath in her sleep and I couldn’t wake her up. I wrote down what she said as she kept saying a name and the words help me, the pain, and make it stop. When I woke her up she remembered nothing about it.

This went on for four days and nights in varying ways. On the ninth day I sat in the living room with my brother, sister and fiancé and on a blank TV screen we saw a grey picture appear with a child running through a forest trying to get away from someone who appeared to kill and bury the child. We also heard crying and children’s screams. To say it was creepy would be an understatement.

That night my fiancé started talking in her sleep again and all the ‘spirits’ were there along with a small version which appeared right beside me. It seemed to be a small boy and I asked it who it was, which left my fiancé repeating a name in her sleep. I asked it what was wrong and my fiancé said it was in the forest. I asked it several other questions and wrote the answers down and it convinced me what I was experiencing was so true that I phoned the police to see if any child fitting the info I had, had been reported missing or worse.

The next day the police came to see me and it turned out that I had got almost all of the info on an abduction and murder from 25 years previously in the area, which I have only lived in for 5 years. Since then I have gotten better and the experiences have stopped, apart from the ghostly cat and four kittens which my own cat plays with and everyone can see each night.

This might be a bit of a far fetched story but every word is true, and a lot more happened than I have put down here. At the time I was extremely ill and almost ended up in intensive care so I wonder if I was so close to the edge it opened a door for me. My family have always had a bit of a psychic side so at no time did it scare me, apart from me the thing in the wardrobe which seemed to be controlling what my fiancé was saying.
