Ever since I was little I have seen these people in my house. The first time, I remember, was when I was around 6 or 7 and each night for about a month, I would wake up in the night and see a woman sitting at my desk, write a letter, put that wax thing on the letter then walk out. I was always freaked but I was only young so I thought nothing really of it.
The second time, when I was 7 or 8, (I had a new room because of the extension and my old room was now a bathroom) I had come out of my bedroom at around midnight to go to the toilet. Then I saw a woman (looking around 20-30 years old). She walked into the bathroom (originally a bedroom) holding a candle. She never looked at me but I went straight back to bed and never told anybody, until now, as I thought it was again, a dream.
I didn't see anything else for a few years until recently, when I walked out of the study (also part of an extension) and an old man was standing, staring at what used to be a coat cupboard but to me it was the hallway. I ran back into the study, took deep breaths and walked out again. He was gone.
I then being an inquisitive 12 year old, looked up costume for the edwardian period (my house is edwardian) and the clothes were so similar to what I saw the man and woman wearing!
Then, only about 2-3 weeks ago, I was watching TV with two friends. I don't know why, but I looked at the stairs and I saw the woman on the stairs and then man standing below. They were talking. I blinked and they vanished. I was completely speechless and I kept staring at the stairs.
I then looked in these documents that our solicitors gave us. It said all the people that used to live in the house. Two names hit me. James and Myra Baxter. They moved into the house in 1910 and in either 1913 or 1923 (I can't remember) James died of old age in the house!
Thank you for reading my very long entry. These ghosts never notice me and it's like watching small clips of the past. The "apparitions" aren't clear, but they're not blurry. It's really hard to explain.
Soon, my friend is coming for a sleep over and we are going to see if we can communicate with James or Myra.
