As a child, i loved to go and sleep at ma nanna and grandads house every saturday night.

I will never forget one night though.

I was about 7 years old and my brother would be 10. We had gone to sleep, and my mum and dad had dropped us off, and stayed for a drink. It was getting late, and i was tired so i went to bed. Me being young, my brother got 30 minutes extra to stay up. My nanna put me into bed and kissed me goodnight like normal (or my grandad. She would shut the door but not all the way, so i could still see the light in the hallway. I was just getting to sleep, when i could hear a strange sound. It sounded like paper being dragged across the bottom of my bed. I was too scared to look ran into the front-room and told them what i thought i heared. They didnt believe me, and i felt stupid for saying it but i was so sure it was real. My mum stayed with me until i fell asleep, the next day nothing was said about it, and to this very day. But i think they have forgot about it now.

I have always be intrested in ghosts and the paranormal since a young age.

On another occasion, at my house, i was again just getting to sleep and i had my arm hanging out of the bed. I was half asleep and half awake. When all of a sudden i woke up, to the feel of someone touching my arm, as if they were stroking it. I was spooked but never thought about it much. I always put it down to a ghost though.

Being 15 now, i am worried about how i look (normal teen thing), i was my hair everyday now but never ussed to. it was about 8:00pm and i washed it that night so i didnt have to be up so early the next morning. I was walking across the landing when out of the corner of my eye, i thought i saw some resting on the staris looking up at me, as if when the saw me they were also shocked to see me. I froze and was to scared to look at what i thought was a person, looking at me. It took me about 5 minutes to move again, i went back to look and nothing was there. I still to this day never like to look at the stairs when i walk past them, at any hour of any day.

Hope you have had fun reading my stories. Ill try and get more soon, whe i have had some more experiences.

I think my house is haunted, do you?
