When I was 12 years old, my mom, brother, sister and I moved into an older house in Shillington, PA. I have always been very in touch with my feelings, when it comes to paranormal type things, and from the very first time I even saw the house up until the first year we lived there, I always had an "odd" feeling, but never actually experienced anything.
My sister and I shared the attic and would often stay up talking to all hours of the night. One night in the middle of our conversation, we heard someone walking up the attic steps, so we stopped talking and pretended to sleep, because we were already suppose to be sleeping. While laying there I realized that no one actually walked up the steps and I got up to check it out, but it was nothing. We shrugged it off and continued talking until we heard the footsteps again, we stopped talking and looked at each other and waited. Suddenly, it sounded as though something was running up and down our steps. My sister jumped into bed with me and we just laid there listening to it, silently until we fell asleep. This happened several more times, but only to me, my sister never heard it again!
Another odd thing that happened in our room was that, both out beds used to shake. It wasn't an extremely violent shake and you couldn't actually see it shaking, but you could feel it. In fact, a few of our friends have felt it while sleeping over, and none of us could figure it out.
I have had other things happen just to me, like while putting my makeup on in the morning before school, several times it felt as though someone rushed up behind me and each time it scared me enough to make me jump and drop my makeup. And speaking of makeup, it was always being moved around, or it would go missing... And no it was not my sister! I have also seen things out of the corner of my eye and I swear in the middle of the night, someone pulled the covers off me. I also once woke up to the sound of a bag rustling around in the middle of my room and when I quit flicked on the light, it stopped.
The only thing I can think of that didn't take place in my room is one night I was sitting in the dining room on the computer and I heard the sound of something moving in the kitchen. We had just gotten a kitten so I didn't think anything of it. Later I went to get a drink and I noticed that our space heater was moved from the far end of the kitchen all the way to the entrance of the kitchen, and there is no way that an 8 week old kitten did that.
These are the things that stick out in my mind from that house. Of course at the time I would feel a little uneasy and occasionally frightened, but I never felt threatened. From all the things that went on, it almost seems as though it was children. I eventually moved out when I was 17, and until the day I moved out I always felt something in that house. I am now 20 and I have only really experienced two or three things since. My family no longer lives in that house and I have tried talking to my mom about my experiences, but she doesn't believe in the paranormal and laughed it off telling me that I was young and it was my imagination.
So for the most part, why was it only me experiencing all of this and has anyone had similar experiences?
