My daughter is only 4 years old and I think, I think she is seeing shadow people. At first I chalked it up to lights flooding in from her bedroom window as cars drove at night. But just last night she said she saw squares of multi-colored lights in my room. I keep my room pitch black, no light seeps in through the closed curtains.
So it made me revisit what she had told me previously.
She had told me before that they come only at night and they appear on her closet door. There is a boy and a girl and they wear hats. She makes a movement as if to head butt the air. "They like to knock heads." I had asked her if they speak to her and she said, "No, they are shy." I asked her if she sees them as people or shadows. She said, "They are black like your hair." She told me they are not there if she keeps her closet door open and also when her younger brother sleeps with her, that they do not tend to bother her at all.
But last night she said she was staring at pictures on my ceiling fan. Little squares of light, orange, brown, and black, I even asked her to draw them for me. Sure enough little squares.
My dad can see auras, shadow people and ghosts so I made sure to call him immediately. He told me I need to get them baptized. He had told me previously he had seen something special about my son when he was first born. His aura projected from his tiny body smiling up at my father, the spirit baby moving first, and then the physical body following 2 steps behind. He said, there is something in the Resa blood that merits baptism. That God helps to add an additional barrier against the paranormal.
I am definitely worried now. He has told me so many things about his own childhood up to now. How us ultra-sensitive types attract anything, good, bad, or neutral. Myself, I've not "seen" anything with my physical eyes but I am extremely intuitive and follow more the way of an empath and I've had many a dream that has come true. Mind you, snippets of inconsequential matter.
The only other personal experience I've had was with my son. I was at my in-laws in Harlan, KY. And this certain nut cracker statue continually turned around to give my son candy from the candy dish that it holds. It is set up on a table that sits directly behind a couch between two other Christmas figures.
Mamaw had said all three statues were turned to the couch when we first arrived and that she had turned them back around to their original position, away from the couch. Day 1 he had gotten a candy by climbing up the couch and reaching for the candy in the candy dish, all statues were facing the couch at the time. Day 2, it was only the nutcracker that was turned around, and he had gotten a candy again from the nutcracker. Day 2 was also when, I noticed the statue turning, I turned the statue back around because I didn't want him getting anymore candy, plus I wanted to see if it would turn around again. Day 3 the nutcracker was turned around yet again. Mind you, these statues are very heavy, my son is a toddler, and the nutcracker would make a perfect 180. It stopped though after day 3.
Also another figure turned around in the room toward the end of our visit, a giraffe perched by a window. It had turned from looking outside to looking inside and everyone in the entire house denies touching anything.
Harlan does have a nick name, "Bloody Harlan" because of a certain series of murderous events. My husband says the house his grandparents live in used to be an Indian burial ground too. The street is aptly named "Mound St." I looked it up; a couple other ghost related stories had popped up around the general area, as well as my proof of everything that was told to me by him.
So as soon as I move back to my original house I plan to have both my children baptized. I was hoping to ask the open-minded among you all on how to go about paving paths for them towards becoming healthy adults coexisting with these possible abilities. I do not wish to attract anything negative to us. My understanding is that ghosts, shadow people; tend to be lonely creatures that like attention and some can be downright malicious, preying upon the weak-minded. Any advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Cold iron is a poetic and archaic term for iron, referring to the fact that it feels cold to the touch. In modern usage the term has been most associated with folkloric beliefs that iron could ward off ghosts, fairies, witches, and/or other malevolent supernatural creatures.
