THE SHADOW HAUNTING

The Haunting Begins

Everything was fine until a few days later I had the distinct feeling that I was not alone, a feeling which was confirmed one night as I sat watching the TV. The children were in bed and had been sound asleep for around hours, when I heard a bang from the kitchen, I assumed it was my cat, until a few minutes later when every cupboard door along both walls was slammed shut! There was no-one else in the house..or so I thought! I was too afraid to look, so I went to bed!!

As you can imagine I didn't sleep much that night or for the next few months in fact! When I got up the atmosphere in the house was very different, but as the days went on there were things happening that were getting out of control. Firstly you were lucky to get through the living room door without it slamming shut in your face or behind you so hard that the walls would shake, then there was the shadows that I would catch now and again.

Their was the inexplicable very strong smell of old tobacco smoke even though I don't smoke, this seemed to follow me. Then when you were in bed at night someone would be flicking the door handle and pulling the shower switch on and off and then there was the stamping up and down the stairs at all hours of the morning, this was something I repeatedly apologized to my neighbour's for.

There was also the night the CD player decided to switch itself on and play a song from the middle of the CD at full volume. Then came the night that my eldest son woke screaming that he had seen someone staring at him with red eyes, that was the night I moved them all into my room, and myself and 3 children slept in my double bed for the next 4 months!

I avoided at all costs being alone in my house, and refused to stay up alone when the children went to bed so at 7pm every night we would all be in bed!I left every light on and the tv would be on all night in my room. I would sit up until the sun came up to make sure that my children were safe, then when it was light I would sleep until around am when they got up.
