Like I have said in my other stories, the frequency of seeing spirits and feeling them are more so than before. I guess becoming an adult has something to do with it. But I don't know why it should. Anyway, for the last 7 years or so, it's been getting more often than not. I think it started around the time my grandma was dying.I have been hearing someone or something (sometimes more than 1) whispering my name, hearing noises, feeling a presence behind me alot, a breeze when the air is still, seeing images out the corner of my eyes. Many are at odd times. I have been able to (since that night in West Virginia) to block out.

However, for I don't know,the last 3 to 4 years, the nights are worse. I have been feeling a dark, angry, and hungry presence in my room. Before the lights go out I have to make sure that I know where everything is and all Closets are Closed. I have to make sure the my whole body was on the bed, no part hanging over.I have to say a particular saying and take deep breathes (in Good out Bad)before I start to go to sleep because when I didn't at the beginning- a darkness came over me, feeling of being trapped but also feeling safe behind the castle doors.

The darkness tried to get me. My body was suffering because I would slowly barely breathing but my soul was safe. I don't know how to explain it any more clearly. But the battering at the doors happened every single night until the saying came to me one day out of thin air. Now while I am getting ready to go to bed, (everything in its place, All Closets Closed, body on bed-none hanging off, getting comfortable) the darkness would surround my bed , hover like a hand with a blanket,a being watching me would slowly approach me,(in my inner eye -I see a dark,squat figure like a gargoyle-small, thin side-red eyes,sometimes small and from its mouth-sometimes large teeth over lapping).

The feelings it brings with it are so overwhelming sometimes that I feel push onto my bed- darkness,anger, hunger, sadness, and that only I have something it wants very badly. I don't know what it could be. I say my saying like I have all the time in the world- getting into bed or getting ready to fall a sleep(sometime eyes open but mostly closed- because I can see clearly that way)then the being would back up very angrily,gives one last look then turns away and disappear but always there. There are others there also but this particular one seems to be the focus. By that time the dark blanket has melted away into itself. This is still going on today. I think it's waiting me out. I say the saying when it's dark because I have noticed when the light is on,it doesn't work except make the dark more darker. Here is my Saying: "Good Night Everyone." Simple Huh.Normal voice or whispering it works equally. It doesn't matter where I sleep, its there.
