In December 2009, I was living with a boyfriend and my dad would occasionally come stay with me. Before moving in, we were living across the street with friends in their apartment. They had warned us of apartment 22, our friend Shane, said he could sometimes see and talk to spirits. He said the ghost in the apartment we were moving into was not a nice one. He said this ghost had taken their life in the apartment, and had other spirits under their control there.
Once we moved in, immediately strange things started to happen. My cat would always stare at the corners of the room, up in the ceiling. I figured he was watching a black shadow figure I had seen sitting on the couch one night after living there just a few weeks.
When I would be home alone, doors would slam upstairs if I was downstairs, or vice versa. My boyfriend and I had someone tap us on the shoulder once as we were talking in the hallway to one another, with no one else there. My mom came to visit once, she wasn’t a huge fan of my ex so I went to walk her downstairs and out of the apartment because we could hear someone in the kitchen making lunch. We heard cupboards opening and shutting, dishes being placed on the counter, the fridge being rummaged through, etc… my boyfriend at the time had left earlier with a friend, but I had figured he must’ve come home to eat really quick. So I walk her downstairs, and we see in the kitchen there is no one. No lunch being prepared. Nothing on the counters. And I realized I had never heard anyone talking.
One night I left to run to the store, I was home alone. I locked the door, took three steps, and heard the door unlock itself. Sure enough it did. Then, 3 days before Christmas, I slipped on the staircase with a screwdriver in my hand. It impaled me 6” and lacerated my liver. I spent 3 days in the hospital and when I came home, my dad said it was the spirit in the apartment. I requested to move immediately and without question, the landlord moved us into a new one.
