What Was This Creature?

 

YGS family, today I am going to share an experience which took place in July 2002.

I had just given birth to my eldest son. He was only a month old. It was icy cold winter. My baby had been awake and crying since about 9pm that night, nothing seemed to help him. No massage or pacifier or milk.

I was a young mum, tired and exhausted, I walked all over the room that night trying to soothe him.

At approximately 3.15 am I went to my little brother and asked him to go downstairs and warm up my baby's milk. As he left my room with the bottle, my baby went stiff in my arms and his eyes rolled white.

I panicked and ran into my parents' room. As I went into their room, I heard something fall and I heard my brother screaming.

He came upstairs into my parent's room with the milk bottle in his hand.

He was trembling. In the meantime, whilst he was catching his breath my dad jumped out of bed and asked him what had happened. This is what he had to say:

As he walked downstairs, he peeked into the lounge, and the heater was on the floor.

Next to the heater was a creature that looked like a black cat but also a human.

Its eyes glowed similar to a cat in the dark. He just said it looked at him, kicked the heater down and just flew into thin air.

My dad went downstairs immediately armed with a pocketknife, tuned on all the lights, and there was nothing. No open or broken doors or windows, nothing in any corner of our lounge and dining room or the kitchen. He even went as far as checking all the cupboards. Nothing. Sweet nothing.

My mum and I began chanting and praying and after about 5 minutes my baby was normal again. He had his milk and slept.

Now personally I have not seen this demon, so I cannot describe it. South African folklore would suggest that it was something we refer to as a tokoloshe.

A demon entity sent to trouble people.

So by now many of you would know that there was an entity in our home, but this was definitely not that entity, because our resident entity was really harmless to all of us at home. It literally left after my mum passed.

If there are other South African readers here, please read and comment. To everyone else please feel free to comment. I also need to mention that I have not experienced any strange occurrences since 2014. My home is actually very light and airy and we feel the positive vibes.

Thank you for reading.

Love & Light
