I've had two strange experiences throughout my life. Whether they were dreams or actual ghostly contacts, I can't say for sure but I do remember both vividly. and both happened during my adolescent years at my parents home. The first occurred about 20 years ago. I was laying in bed and woke up in the middle of the night (at least I think I woke up...) and I was on my side facing out in to the middle of my room. It was dark except for the moon light coming in through my windows. As my eyes opened, right in front of me, sitting on his knees, was a boy about 15 years old or so. I froze and couldn't get a breath out. I was in shock. He stared at me and seemed to be scanning me. It almost seemed like he was trying to figure out who I was, why I was there. I remember blinking my eyes and poof! He was gone. Now, my parents home is pretty old and the previous owner did have a son who died in the home due to cancer. I don't know how old the boy was who died. In any event, I was freaked out to say the least. However, I do recall not being 'afraid'. I was shocked and surprised but I know that I wasn't scared. Was it a dream? Who really knows.
The second event happened in the same bedroom about five years later. I was sleeping on the floor in my bedroom because my friend was over and I let her have the bed. I remember seeing this young girlhovering above me. She looked about 7 or 8 years old, blonde hair, wearing a brown dress. She was holding her face with both hands and it was bleeding profusely. She screamed at me to wake up (so I must have been asleep). She yelled that she needed help. Over and over. She just screamed for me to help her. I remember then jumping up and yelling "Okay! We'll help you!" I know I woke up because I had apparently turned on my bedroom light and woke up my friend from screaming so loud. I was still in a dream state apparently but my friend told me that I had turned on the light and was talking to someone and trying to get dressed really quickly. Eventually I woke up completely from my "sleep walk" and was really jittery. It felt so real. Now here's the weird part. I woke up and my parents were outside standing in the dark looking at an ambulance light and on the road. I went out there to see what they were doing because I wanted to tell them about my dream and I thought it was strange they were standing in the dark outside our home. Turns out a mother and daughter were in a car crash. The mother had flipped her vehicle trying to avoid a deer...
I really want to believe that there is something to this. I still wonder if I had just dreamed both situations. Who knows? This world is amazing so I think anything is possible.
HA! I think there are haunted HOUSES, and then... there are haunted PEOPLE! I must be a "GHOST-MAGNET"!
