Well bizarre, weird, just unbelieveable stuff has happened to me my whole life. I never realized it until the past couple years (now that im in my mid 20's)how different me and my life were from others. Anyways my stories will be in series, this being #1.And i would appreciate any feedback, suggestions, HELP.

Ok the 1st experience that really stands out is when i was 15yrs old living at home with my parents, grandparents, sister and brother. It was a sunday afternoon around 11:00am,i came upstairs from my bedroom in the basement. The house was quiet and i assume everyone went out to breakfast and shopping as they do every sunday.

I open the front door in the living room and the blinds and sit down to watch tv. The sofa is against the wall next to the door, facing the opposite wall that is ALL mirror and the TV is diagonal facing the door (picture it if u can). Im watching tv and i hear someone walking upstairs (thats my parents room) and i figure its my dad getting up(sometimes he would stay home and sleep in on sunday too when everyone went out).

So when the phone rings and its my dads friend i run upstairs to get my dad but NO BODYS THERE AND THE BEDS MADE! I freaked and slidded down the stairs because i know i heard someone walking up there. When i went back to watch tv on the sofa again about 10 mins later, i saw a girl walk up the stairs on the porch and stand at the door (i saw this in the reflection on the tv,thats how i always knew someone was at the door).

So i look in the mirror covering the wall across the room facing the door and see nobody on the porch. I look back at the reflection on the tv and see the girl run down the stairs. I jump up and go outside and didnt see anyone anywhere. The girl looked about 12-13 yrs old with a plain nightgown on with straight long hair parted down the middle. But thats all i could see because it was her reflection in the tv.

I later found out my mother and grandmother said they saw a ghost of a girl on the porch in the rocking chair!! I never found out any history on the house but the girl seemed to be lost and sad, maybe even lonely.
