THE BASEMENT SPIRIT

(Matthew)

I believe our basement is haunted. The reason I feel this way is because we have a censor light in our basement for the laundry room. We use this devise because it's easier than looking for the string to turn on the light. Anyway, while I'm laying in bed, in the basement, for no apparent reason, the censor light will just comes ON! Also, I have a television in my room and before I go to sleep, I set the sleep timer at 60 minutes. I always remember what time I go to bed. But oddly, sometimes I will wake up in the middle of the night and the television is on. Also, sometimes I will wake up to a strong feeling of a pressure on my leg. If I try to move my leg, it feels as if it is stuck and it stays this way, until I am able to get my other leg out and kick in that area to break free. There are also times when I'm at the computer, also in the basement, and when I glance at the china cabinet next to the computer center, I often see a reflection of a person just over my left shoulder. I can't really tell what gender or age it is, but it is definitely a person. I have resorted to taking pictures of things I've been seeing around the basement, to prove what I am experiencing. I have managed to capture a picture with several orbs , plus a picture with a vortex shooting across the room.

THE LITTLE GIRL IN THE ATTIC

(Ronald)

It was the summer of 1989 in Lenexa Kansas. My best friend's mother was kind enough to let me stay in their house for the remainder of the school year so that I could finish out my senior year in my high school. My family had moved to Illinois and against their better judgment let me live at my friend's house. Well, my friend and I shared the attic in his two-story house, which had been remodeled into a bedroom. There were two other teenagers living in the house besides us so it was necessary to make the attic a bedroom. Well, one night we were both asleep in the attic and at around 2:00, I woke up for whatever reason, I usually wake up once or twice a night anyway. At first there was nothing strange or out of the ordinary that I noticed, but then I looked toward the foot of my bed and that's when I saw the most amazing apparition. There was a small girl, probably 7 or 8, I would guess standing at the foot of my bed and off to the left corner. I was so taken by what I was staring at that I couldn't even speak. I was more shocked than scared, but I was definitely spooked by her sudden appearance. She was dressed in what appeared to be a solid white dress that went all the way to the floor. She was completely transparent and I could not clearly see her face, but her face was aimed right at me! She moved across the bedroom floor directly parallel to the foot of my bed and eventually disappeared into the wall of the attic on the opposite side of the room. Her face was pointing towards me the entire time she was floating across the bedroom floor, and she never once moved her head away from me. Then it was over........Whatever it was, whoever it was, had just disappeared and was never seen again. I continued to sleep in that room for another 6 months, but I never saw anything like that again.

WHERE DID SHE COME FROM?

(Ronald)

In 1990, I was living in an apartment by myself, in Lenexa Kansas. This apartment was right down the road from where I previously lived with my best friend. I had borrowed a friend's Ouija board one week because I had been so bored......I needed some excitement! On a few separate occasions, I used the Ouija board (alone) in the house to see if anything would happen. Well, nothing happened.......that night! The next week, I had a friend of mine staying with me because he had nowhere else to go, he had been kicked out of his own house. I got up late one night to go to the restroom. He was sleeping in the living room, which was directly in front of the restroom. He slept on the floor often because he was more comfortable there. This night was different though because on the way to the restroom I looked in the living room and saw that there was what seemed to be a woman laying on him, under his blanket. He was laying on his stomach and she was laying on her stomach, on top of his back (weird I know). The blanket that was over both of them looked more like a tent, because the two bodies were stacked, two high! I could see her long brown hair and that she was wearing a tank top. Part of her jeans were exposed where the blanket didn't cover her and she was completely clothed, but I never did see her face because her face was pointing in the opposite direction. I didn't think much of it because he did have a girlfriend, living in the apartment complex. I figured she had stayed the night. First thing in the morning I asked my friend what time his girlfriend left and he told me that she didn't sleep there nor had she been there at all that night! He explained to me that he had came home alone. The door to my apartment was locked, because he locked it when he came home and his girlfriend did not have a key to get in either. We were both terrified after that experience, especially him! From that point on, I stayed at all my friends houses like a scared little kid because I was afraid of what I might find next in my apartment.....alone!

A LIVING NIGHTMARE

(Ronald)

My family moved into this house in 1979 and I was only 8 years old at the time. The house was great and everything seemed normal up until I turned 14 or 15. It was considered two stories because half of the basement could be seen from the front, was not below the ground. The house was approximately 1500-1700 square feet. I got left alone in that house frequently and spent a lot of time on the basement phone with my girlfriend. I would always hear heavy footsteps walking down the hallway, that was just above me. They would start on one end of the house and walk to the other end of the house! My mother sometimes complained that she would feel gusts of wind around her legs while she was getting ready for work early in the mornings. My older brother once got freaked out because he said that in the middle of the night, he woke up to the sound of a woman screaming very load in the hallway just outside his bedroom door. He said that when he went to investigate, there was no one there. He claimed that the screaming was so load that he couldn't see how the rest of the family didn't wake up, since all of our bedrooms were right off the hallway. The most terrifying event that took place in this house was when my brother was down stairs in the basement one night with his girlfriend. They were on the couch with all the lights off. No one else was in the house except for him and his girlfriend, when all of a sudden they both clearly heard a voice call out my brother's name. He said that the voice was right near both of their faces when they heard it. His girlfriend was so scared that she started crying and wanted to leave.....which they both did immediately. One afternoon, I was doing homework in my bedroom with my door shut when I heard a knock at my door. I said "come in", but no one did. I went back to my homework because I thought that my father, who was home, had tried playing a trick on me or something. Moments later, I heard the same knock, but did not say anything this time.....then another knock came! I got up and crept to the door and flung it open expecting to see my father there, but there was no one. Well, I found my father but he was in the garden outside and had been for long time. He claims that he never came into the house and when I told him what had happened, he just said "wasn't me". This place was creepy and I always have strange dreams about it. In all of my dreams, there is a presence in the house and it's always trying to get me. Most of my bad dreams are of this house and what's in it. Even to this day, 17 years later, I still have horrible nightmares of this house.

THE UNION SOLDIER

(Elizabeth)

One time, around eleven o'clock p.m., I was sitting at the computer when all of the sudden, I felt someone behind me. Thinking it was one of my night-owl sisters, I turned to see what they wanted. Well, when I turned around, there was nobody there! My mom and dad have also had experiences with hearing footsteps in the empty hallway. Also, on Halloween of last year, around four a.m., I woke up and saw what looked like a young man wearing a Union uniform. Needless to say, I pulled the covers over my head and didn't come out until a few hours later.

"BLOODY MARY"

(Tina)

This happened while I was staying at my friend Jericka's house. Her mom wasn't going to be home that night and we were pretty much on our own to do what we wanted. Being like 12 at the time, we had heard many stories about "Blood Mary", but were skeptical about it. As the story goes, if you turn off all the lights, light some candles and have a fake baby, you can look into the mirror and say "Bloody Mary" 5 times and she will supposedly come out of the mirror and take you into the mirror with her. We decided to try it out and see what all of the fuss was all about. We got the fake baby and put it in a little doll cradle, locked the door to her room, lit a couple of candles and proceeded to call out to "Bloody Mary". Well around the third "Bloody Mary" we decided that we were too scared to continue. So, we went down stairs to watch TV. About ten minutes later, Jericka remembered that she left her notebook up stairs. Still scared, she wanted me to go with her to go and get it. When we opened the door to Jericka's room we saw that the crib was turned over and the baby was on the top of it. We were so scared that we literally ran out of her house and stayed the night at my house instead.
