Haunted and just weird experiences

Ever since I was a small child I use to see and commune with dead people, even though at the time I did not make a connection that they had passed over.  I had these special friends with me right up until I started school it was then most just did not grace with their present any longer.  I remember I had three in all that continued to show themselves when it was needed.  Few people thought I was cute or a crazy little kid that played and talked with people that were not visible to those who watched on.  Needless to say I did not have many friends back then and this pattern repeated itself throughout my life.  That was ok with me because animals and my special friends was all I wanted or needed that’s what I thought.  Even today I am not the kind of person that has many friends if in deed any, my family are my friends and I like it that way.  The last memory I have of my special friends with me was in grade seven, I was talking and playing with them while all the parents at the parents meeting at my school was asking my mum if I was alright!!!  The next day at school a few kids gave me a hard time for being at the parents meeting and for talking to myself…  I will never forget the teasing I receive for this.  Being myself I just retreated away from them and turned towards the comfort of my special non-judgmental friends that I know all my life.  It was when I started high school that was I never saw them in the same way again.  It is only in the past few years I have been feeling some of their presence around me.  It is not the same as it was back then they don’t show themselves any more only standing in the fore ground.  Now it is like I can see a shadow and their spirit but no detail anymore.  Slowly I feel them stepping out of the shadow and I cannot wait until they will greet me in their full glory again!

 
My first sleepover
Having never had a sleepover and I was now in the ninth year at high school I had a total of four friends and decided to have them over at my house.  Being not the one for many friends I felt a bit uncomfortable about them sleep a whole night at my house.  My curiosity took over the feeling of being uncomfortable; I really wanted to know what everyone at school was talking about.  With what was being said it was fun and cool to have sleepovers.  Remember this was back in the 80’s I am sure thing have change and it is probably very not cool.  Anyhow we all decided to grab mattresses and make our bed in the lounge room so we could watch videos that we had hired for the night.  Of course we had chosen scary movies for the night…

I think we were watching about the third movie and my parents and long gone to sleep.  One of the girls heard something on the toilet, I remember thinking oh here we go imagination is being over worked.  If it was indeed something why did I not feel anything?  Normally if anything was indeed around I would be the first to feel something.  After that we all went in pairs to the toilet.  About half an hour after this a chill went up my spine and felt like someone was watching us! My friend Tracey and I took the journey to the loo as we walked past the laundry door we both saw with our own eyes the door knob twist and turn.  Jumping back half expecting to see someone to open the door from the other side nothing happened.  We both looking at each other waiting for the other one to open and see if anyone was there.  I ended up opening the door to find there was no one there and the door leading out of the laundry to outside was locked.  Needless to say we did not need to go to the toilet anymore we ran back to the others and told them of what just happened.  All the rest of the others thought we were speaking shit to scare them!  We all gathered and walked down the hall to the closed door of the laundry not really expecting for it to happen again I was waiting to be teased about Tracey and I trying to scare them.  To my and the others shock we indeed see the knob turn and make a bigger noise than last time!  Instead of looking behind the door the second time we all ran back to the lounge room.  The girls kept on insisting me to go up to my parents room to wake them up so they can check it all out.  Mind you I had to walk past the door to go up to my parent’s room.  They did not let up so I gathered up all my courage and walked into my parent’s room…  I woke up dad and we walked down and he opens the door and found nothing there and the outside door still locked.  Walking back to the others dad simply told us to all stop being silly and go to sleep there is nothing there…  Dad then walked off to the room and we were all left there alone again scared out of our wits.  We decided to all get closer and tried to go to sleep, mind you they let me sleep the closest to the hall.  Nothing else happened that night and it felt like forever before we fell asleep.  The next day we all knew what happened and it was not our imagination at all even though dad told mum we were all being silly school girls.  One of the girls had a bright idea the next day to go to the cemetery that was next-door to our house and check out the graves.  I knew the cemetery well enough because I like going there and reading the headstones I never felt uncomfortable or any evil there so I agreed.  Going down to just look at the headstones to somehow having a séance on one of the graves to try and find out if what happened last night had anything to do with anyone here at the cemetery.  The cup that one of them took with them did in fact move but I cannot remember it making any sense on the piece of paper with ABC and yes no on it.  The girls seemed to like blaming the other for moving the small cup.  I really did not feel spirit of any sort there with us so I though someone was making it move as well.  When we walked home mum asked if we would like a cup of tea and I told everyone mum reads cups so we all should get our cups read.  Mum gave me a side wards glance as if to say did you have to tell them that.  One by one we had our cups read when in came to Amber’s turn as she handed mum the cup it smashed even before she let go of the cup!  Amber told us she didn’t even let go of it or squeezed the cup to make it smash.  Mum being very superstitious refused to read anymore cups…

 
UFO sighting
It has not just been spirits around my life but I feel I have contact with UFO’s and their occupants.  Only a few years ago I was driving home with Trevor (my husband) and our kids in the back of the car.  We were just going through a curvy part of the road that wove around our local lake.  There is a range that surrounds the skyline making it the most beautiful picturesque view indeed.  Anyhow we were not doing anything out of ordinary because we travel that road many times and have never seen anything before.  Not this day we both spotted it at the same time!  It was a huge egg shaped object just sitting up in the sky!  It looked silver and reflected the shy a bit.  But I remember saying to Trev do you see that?  He said he did so I knew I was not seeing things…  We had to go around a big curve in the road and some trees blocked our sight on where this object was.  We only had to take our eyes off for a minute or so and it had vanished with no sign of it whatever!  Something this big could not simply vanish with any sign of it anywhere.  From hovering high in the sky to it simply being gone is something that could not happen.  I know what I saw and Trev saw the same thing so we know it was not something in our imaginations.  That was not the first encounter or the last that I have had or Trev has had.
