28 May 2024 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
Last night, something really strange happened. I was sitting in the living room, just watching TV, when out of the corner of my eye, I saw a shadow move. At first, I thought it was just a trick of the light or maybe my cat. But when I looked over, there was nothing there. I shrugged it off and went back to my show.
A little while later, I felt this sudden chill in the room, like a cold draft, even though all the windows were closed. I could feel the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. It was an eerie feeling, like someone was watching me. I tried to ignore it, but then I heard a soft whisper. It was so faint I couldn’t make out any words, but it definitely sounded like someone was trying to speak to me.
I turned the volume down on the TV and listened harder. The whispering continued, coming from the direction of the hallway. Gathering my courage, I got up and slowly walked towards the sound. My heart was pounding in my chest, and I felt this mix of fear and curiosity. When I reached the hallway, I saw a faint, translucent figure standing there. It looked like a person, but I could see right through it.
I froze, not sure what to do. The figure didn’t move or speak; it just stood there, almost as if it was waiting for something. I tried to call out, but my voice caught in my throat. After what felt like an eternity, the figure slowly faded away, leaving me standing there in stunned silence.
I don’t know what I saw or if my mind was just playing tricks on me, but it felt incredibly real. The whole experience left me shaken and wondering if I had just encountered a ghost. I’ve heard stories about haunted houses and apparitions, but I never thought I’d experience something like that myself. Now, I can’t stop thinking about what it could have been and if it will happen again.
