The White Shadow

I was awoken by the storm that night. The thunder was so loud and lighting so bright. I got up to get some water and came back to bed, while covering myself I realized the hallway light was on. I was getting out of bed to turn it off when I saw that it turned off by itself. I got scared but thought the lights just went out because of the storm.

I got back into bed covering myself. I heard my closet door open so I looked at my closet, seeing something white, like a shadow, come out of it and walking to the end of my bed. Watching it, it was going around my bed then back into my closet. I got scared and went into my brother's room and the same thing happened, except I didn't pay attention to it to not be afraid.

The next morning my mother was cleaning. Something was moving the broom and mop from her. She didn't realize it because she thought it was her misplacing it. She then realized it and got scared.

My mom wanted to move but I didn't let her. We still are living in the house but are planning to move. There's to many unexplainable activities and we just can't stand it anymore. We are very scared. My nephew plays with the "white shadow" thinking it's his friend. I'm thinking it isn't dangerous but my mom says it is... That's why we are moving and leaving the place alone.

Ever since then, things are still scary in my house. Things play with my mom, my nephew, and myself. Thinking I would of gotten use to it I haven't. I'm still scared of it.
