My story is not as scary as some of the ones on this website and i expect some the the experiences i've had can be explained but you can think what you like when I have finished. I live in a nice area in England and about 6 or 7 months back we moved out of a quiet street (if you can call the neighbors quiet) and out of a council house. It was quite big and was prevosly owned by an old lady. I dont know anything about this lady as when my mother and father rented the house i was only 3,all i can remember is blue wallpaer in the kitchen. Anyway most of the 'happenings' happened at night and as i said can proberly be explained. One night when evryone was asleep (i must of been 11 or 12 at the time) i was satying up late as it was holidays and i was drawing and reading etc. I relised the time and although i didnt feel sleepy i decided to turn of my lamp, i rested my head upon my pillow and looked around. I spotted a grey elderly women sat on the lego box just staring at me, i stared for what felt like hours when i thought nah its the trick of the light or a picture of the curtains (she was by the curtains and the curtains had lots of flowers on them). I went to sleep and thought nothing of it. That was my first experience.
My second was when i was 12 again it was late and i decided to go to sleep before i got into trouble. I put my head down and looked across the room and saw a skull i imeditly turned on my lamp to find it was a teddy laying awkwardly (easy mistake). I got to sleep pretty well that night,then i woke up suddenly and sat up and i was wide awake, it was pitch black so it was gone midnight and i saw this silvery vampire floating right in front of me (sounds stupid doesnt it) and it said in a hissing voice let me bite you and of course i screamed (i am so embarrased) its really hard to beileive but i know i was wide awake and how could i be dreaming.That was my second.
My third was when i was 12 as well, i think it was the end of November and it was snowing. My dad had just got a new digital camra and decided to test it out on me and my brother. So we went into the garden and he took a few snaps and went back indoors. Later that day i went out with my friends, on my back down my street all the kids in the street were running up to me saying is it true you got a ghost in your back garden. I just ran to my house and demanded an explanation. My dad showed me the photo and all this mist covered myn and my brothers face that wasnt there before (also known as ectoplasm) and in the middle you could make out a face. I showed my friends and they thought that they could make out a crown of thorns. another picture has a archway around me as though wanting me to join them. Since this i have been very interested in other peoples paranormal expariences. I hope this hasn't bored you (as in the length) it took me long enough to write it!
