My Grandmother’s Last Words
It was a cold night, 48 days before Christmas. I was very scared because at that time my grandmother had died and my family was waking on her that night.
I went to my bed with my cousins because that was the only chance we could sleep for one whole day a few hours ago. My cousins slept, I was closing my eyes but my mind was still running, it doesn’t stop. I couldn’t sleep but I was keeping my eyes close.
Suddenly, I felt a cold thing as cold as ice on my feet. I opened my eyes and then a striking light was approaching and a blurred image appeared. I kept on rubbing my eyes to find out if I was just dreaming or not.
When I realized that I was not dreaming, my nervous system works, I was chilling because I was scared, but the image held my hand and then she said, “I Love You My child”, and then my chilling stopped and I realized that she was my late grandmother. I raised up in bed to hug her, but she suddenly disappeared like a bubble.
Then that night I told it to my relatives. And then all the hair on my skin stood up when they said that the last words she said was, “I will only say goodbye to my favorite granddaughter”. Then suddenly tears fell down from my eyes.

Nightmares And A Shadow Creature
When I was about four years old my mom married this guy named Ken (totally hate him) so we moved into the house my great grandmother left for her.
Before my great grandmother died, the house felt OK, but when we moved in something was out of the ordinary. About a month after we moved my cat, jasmine, got hit by a car while I was at my dad’s. I thought it was a joke. They buried her in the backyard near the woods. I started having nightmares.
My first nightmare goes kinda like this: I was having my whole 5th grade class over for a field trip to my house. Jasmine was all bloody and had two moles with her. They both had bloody teeth. (I had gotten my new cat that I now own by then). They wanted to kill my new cat Moonlight. They all jumped at me while I was running with my beloved cat and I woke up screaming. I didn’t notice I was crying and sweating.
My room, like any teenagers, was a mess, so I had a family birthday coming up and was wrapping presents in my room. All of a sudden the tissue paper starting bouncing around like a frog. I got freaked and told my mom, she said it’s probably just the meds.
The next night I couldn’t sleep so I got up to get a drink of water, and I felt like something was staring at me real hard so I turned around to see a black shadowy creature moving towards me. I started shouting all these things, I remember only few things that I said. I told it to go away and that it wasn’t welcome here. Mom ran downstairs and the next morning she told me that I was pale white and she found me in the kitchen, and I was solid.

A Ghostly Phone Call
This is a story told by my teacher who is a big fan of ghost stories.
This happened when her friend’s sibling died (I really don’t know why).
Before the sibling of the friend of my teacher died, she tried to call on her cell phone to communicate with my teacher’s friend, but she didn’t know that her sister forgot to bring her cell phone with her.
And one day after a couple of days (After her funeral), someone called in her sister’s office, but she wasn’t there because she was in a leave.
The one who received the call asked her name and the name given was the same as the name of the sibling of the friend of my teacher who died.
Then when the friend of my teacher came back from her leave, they told her everything that had happened. And she told everyone that before her sibling died, she was trying to contact her sister. They were very scared. What a relief from a frustrating, scary, and thrilling paranormal encounter.

My Nightmare - Vision Of A Past Life?
Every now and then I have this reccurring dream of being in a cemetery in a long flowing evening gown and all of a sudden I hear running footsteps coming after me and saying I will find and kill you.
I hide in a coffin and this coffin is like the biggest one, the rest are all of those old fashioned coffins with the crosses engraved into them. Also, what was strange was that they were the size of babies.
I hide in the large one and soon I hear the footsteps passing me. I lay still as I can and about five minutes later I hear someone say,”it’s ok you can come out now I wont hurt you”. I raise up and look around. I am in the woods and I get out of the coffin and just collapse.
Then I wake up and I am laying on a couch surrounded by these coffins and embalming tools. I am still in my evening gown. I start to scream and my mind tells me that would not be a very wise decision because somebody is coming toward this room.
I have this dream all the time, and it is freaky because I am only 15 years old. Is this a vision of a past life?

New Home New Hauntings
It all started seven years ago, I know only chosen people can see different ghosts but I don’t believe I am a chosen person, I believe these ghosts are, well, making themselves be seen to people with maybe a little part of a gift.
Anyway back on the story. Our family had recently moved from the city to the country. My nana had given a subdivided part of her land for us so we lived right next to her. And my mum dad and brother who is three years younger than me moved into out nana’s house while our house was being built. I was only 3 1/2 at the time so I didn’t really put much thought into what I did.
We had just moved into our new house and I kept seeing flashes of light moving from our living room into our kitchen, which was right next door. I didn’t make much of it seeing as I was only four now. I also always got the feeling that something was watching me.
I am 12 now and I still feel uneasy around windows at night because when I was eight I kept hearing scratching noises on my window. Mum said that it was probably just the cats, but I knew it wasn’t.
A couple of nights ago I asked mum if she has felt a presence in the house and she said, “I did when we first moved in here, but now they are not as bad, in fact I hardly ever get any.” I was surprised because I thought she would have said, “no”, because mothers don’t usually express that they have felt and saw weird thing to their 12 year old daughter.
When its totally quiet I can hear almost whispers but more like a rush of air going past me even if there is no wind. I haven’t told anyone of these feelings or anything because I don’t really know what they will think of me and we never really bring up a conversation of ghosts or spirits.
