I have previously posted a story regarding some of my problems as a teenager and young adult. I know that even though they are not extremely supernatural they are part of a phenomenon that occurs to a lot of people through their lives and I appreciate all your comments. The story I'm about to tell you is something that occurred to my older sister Ariel.
In 1990, after graduating from High School, Ariel began working in a Stationary Store along with my other sister Lilith during their vacations. In this store worked another girl who I'll call Myrtle. Myrtle claimed she could see elves., she was and odd girl, often showing scratch marks and small bruises, and always telling us stories about something that had happened to her relating "duendes" (Spanish word for elves/goblins). She used to say that they had proclaimed her their Queen and that she belonged to them in some way. Myrtle introduced my sisters to one of her friends, his name was Joe... This Joe developed some sort of crush on my big sister Ariel. And kept appearing in my house to visit. Neither my mother nor I (I was 12 at the time) liked him. He had a bad look, almost as if I could sense that he was not good natured. He was a heavy metal listener, always dressed in black (you know, the type of guys who used to listen LP's backwards in the late 80's and early 90's because they contained some satanic message, etc.)
During his visits he related to my big sister stories about "aparecidos" (ghosts) and sometimes about messages he received by an evil entity that used to haunt him in the past. He usually tended to show himself as a reformed teenager who was now more into studying and making a future for himself (despite the clothing) rather than the freak that I knew he was. I apologize for my language, yet I have come to develop through the years (I'm 32 now) an ability to identify when people are good or have ill intentions towards me., and I knew he was bad news from the moment I saw him. I can't explain how but I felt as if behind him there was always this dark mass using him as a puppet (I know how this sounds, but it's the best way I can describe it). During his visits, he also talked about his older brother who I will call "Danny". Danny had died from cancer a few years back. I honestly don't remember what type of cancer or how old was he when this happened but my sister felt a little sorry for him since she had 2 sisters and one brother and Joe seamed alone in the world being him the only son alive to his parents.
My sister's vacation ended and Ariel went into law school. She had to write a lot during class., many dictations from her teachers. Suddenly, during class, her hand began shaking and writing in a way that was not her own. She got scared but debunked it as having her hand tired. On a weekend, while preparing for a test it happened again... This time her hand began "communicating". It presented itself as Danny, Joe's brother, he talked about where he was (astral plane), also talked about our dead relatives... Things that had happened to us as a family, etc... She was so scared, and so was my mother. I don't remember why but I didn't feel fear... I felt anger, I was so angry that this thing was haunting my sister, and I kept saying in my mind "why don't you pick on someone your own size", (funny because even though I was a kid I felt so strong against the entity... Now I know better ha-ha).
At first it showed itself friendly through its writings... Being Joe's dead brother, he explained how he died, etc. But later it turned dark, saying my sister belonged to him and that he would take her away. My sister was so scared she couldn't even take a shower by herself. It obviously affected her in law school. She couldn't focus the same way as the others did because this thing followed her and kept bothering her while she was taking notes in class. It started to get worst, Ariel couldn't sleep, was always looking at things from the corner of her eye., expecting us to accompany her everywhere., she truly feared for her life. This entity was so adamant in taking her and felt so sure that it was a certainty that it would happen that she started believing it, even though my mother yelled at it saying that it had no power over my sister, her hand moving and writing in upper scale "ES MIA" (she's mine) She sobbed while her hand moved and my mother and grandmother would calm her down telling her that it was alright. Since the moment I heard "Danny" I knew Joe was behind this., but we couldn't understand why would he want my sister to be harmed in that way., was he aware of the damage he was doing to her?, did he take part in this?, did Joe send the entity to haunt her?
My mother called the Bishop and contacted Joe's parents. They sat down in the living room. They seemed a perfectly normal couple. I couldn't believe they were parents to this "monster". I saw him so evil, so full of hatred... What had happened to him? I know I was small, but I saw a lot in his expressions, he showed nothing but indifference towards his parents. I felt so sorry for his mom and dad. I can't imagine all the things that must have happened in their house. They began reading all the things the entity had written through my sister. Joe's face showed pure anger, like a caged lion waiting to attack. It felt like he wanted to kill the Bishop right there with his bare hands. His parents apologized for Joe's behaviour and explained that his brother had died peacefully, that he had left this world abruptly yet with no regret and no unfinished business. I felt their pain for having to re live all that had happened to their oldest son. They said that his last expression was of happiness and content so they could not believe that this thing that communicated with Ariel was his son. The bishop proceeded to bless the house and left taking all the papers with him.
We no longer heard from Joe again.

Thanks for taking the time of reading my small story. I have one tiny question, I have tried to investigate this yet nothing has helped. This entity said that our great grandmother's spirit (from our mother's side) was with the Navajo people., I know, this might sound as nonsense just like many of the things that the entity said, yet other 3 people have said the same thing (to my mother during the 70's, to my sister Ariel and to a Great Uncle in another town) Could you please help me on this?., I've read a little bit regarding the Navajo traditions and it says that the Navajo fear the dead and are buried by people other than their relatives to avoid the dead from haunting their living family and that they used to bury them and move elsewhere so the dead wouldn't follow them.
Please help!
