The Haunting of Tumbamuerto
From: Story type: Ghost Location: panama city, panama Source: Form Submission
first of all i would like to start my story with a little background, the area in panama where I live is called EL DORADO,the main avenue in el dorado is called Ricardo J Alfaro, but is better known by its Knickname, Tumbamuerto (tumba=drop, muerto=dead person),until recently I didnt knew why it was called like that,but i did a little research and found out that in the early days of Panama a civil war broke loose(La guerra de los mil dias= the war of the thousand days) and part of it was battled in the area wich is now tumbamuerto,when the war finished this place was used as a burial ground for the soldiers.Huge holes were dug and they were all dropped in them.Because of this a lot of paranormal ocurrences happen in this area.
Anyway,strange things happen once in a while in my house wich is about a 100 meters from tumbamuerto AVE.
1-when i was about 8 i was sleeping in my room when suddenly i woke up and saw a group of shadows walking to my grandmothers room.
2-Seven years later i was 15 and getting ready to go to sleep, i put my head in the pillow and then something hit me (really hard by the way)right below my right ear. I wasnt scared I thought it was just a dream or something, but i went to check it out at the bathroom, and there was a huge reddened bruise in my jaw an neck I showed it to my parent but they didnt knew what to say.
3-I was 18, I saw a man dressed in brown clothes( i cant see his face)right behind me, i saw this guy a lot for a period of 7 months or so.My little brother has seen him too, it even has his knickname "El de Chocolate" or the Brown one.
4-Im 20 now, my mother gave me a huge bed for my bedroom, and ever since once in a while the bed starts to shake a little when I am sleeping, not enough to be scary, but enough to wake me up.
And the other day I was speaking with my neighbors and found out that El de Chocolate has appeared to them a lot too.
Well thats it sorry for the misspelling but english is not my first language, I know the story aint scary but i wanted
to tell it. thanks.
