I now reside with my mother and my two boys in her house, thanks to the economy. My mom lives in a 70+ year old house and probably has seen a lot of things going on since it's been here.
The first time I came to visit her before we moved in, I sensed something strange in the house. It didn't scare me or make me concerned about her being here by herself. I noticed shadows moving in the front room. I wrote them off as the shadows of the trees when the streetlight hit them.
When I spent the night, I would often feel something lightly brush my face, as if a fingertip from someone's hand was stroking my face. It felt weird, but nice.
And after we moved in here with her, some of the hauntings became a little more frequent.
When my youngest son went out the door to get on the bus, I waited on the step to make sure he got on okay. Then I went back to bed for a couple of hours before I had to go to one of my classes at the local community college.
I was almost asleep when the front door sounded like it was being opened. I didn't pay any attention because I figured my son forgot something and came back in to get it. I heard what sounded like someone walking around my bed and go through my closet. I thought my mom was up and needed a shirt from me or something. I peeked my eye open and didn't see anyone. I thought it was kind of strange and chalked it up to our "housemate."
One other morning, I was in that state of almost being awake when I saw a man in my face. My eyes were very fuzzy and it startled me. I didn't get a clear visual on him, unfortunately. I know he was young, perhaps teens to mid 20s with dark hair. He didn't and doesn't pose a threat.
The kids and I see him out of the corner of our eyes a lot of the times. He likes to play with my mom's wind chimes in the middle of the night. I bought a bell the other day in case he comes around and wants to make his presence known to me.
One of these days, I will do a search on the previous owners who lived here and see if there were any deaths in the house or in the immediate area. I would really like to know who this young man is.
I never consider any entity human or nonhuman a "demon". They may be very negative energies, however. Because of my own personal beliefs, demons do not play a role in my life. There are those people who automatically assume all spirits are demons who take on the guise of humans. It's really ridiculous.
I laugh whenever I watch these reality ghost shows every time I see someone like Lorraine Warren tell homeowners that they are being haunted by demons. *big eye roll*
I thank you for your kind comment. You and a few others seem to really know your stuff concerning the paranormal.
I also think it's really crappy that some others on here like to troll and make fun of people's experiences. It's people like them who keep people like us in hiding. I'm so glad that I don't have to hide anymore and I enjoy coming here to read other's stories.
Keep up the good work, guys! ❤
