Date: Tuesday, April 16, 2002 11:26 AM

This is the first story that i have ever posted online.It doesn't seem as fascinating as some of the others i've read but all the same it is a true story..So i hope that you like it.

      A very close friend of mine, Renee, is totally different than I am.  She is Wiccan, and has believed all her life that she can sometimes communicate with spirits around her through feeling.  I have to admit when i first met her i thougth she was crazy, but that too was a reason i started to hang around her.  I was raised in a very religious family and was taught all my life that you cannot talk to the dead or communicate with them in any shape form or fashion. However, Missy moved in with her boyfriend Darren, about a year ago.)  Darren is parapalegic because he fell from the roof of his house that he was building 8 years ago and broke his back.  The top floor of the house remains unfinished to this day so it is blocked off from the rest of the house only to be used as storage.

    I stay the night with them often and sleep in the living room on the couch.  I sit up half the night though browsing on the internet or chattin with friends or just watching tv.  When i sit at the computer, the stairs to the upper floor are behind me.  Behind me to my right is the doorway leading to the kitchen.  Behind me to my left is the doorway to the front porch.  And in front of me there is the couch which faces the entertainment center.  There is only one way you could possibly get on the front porch and that is through the living room door.  It is very high off the ground and there are no steps leading up to it, so when i'm sitting there in the dark alone i am not expecting anyone to becoming through the front door. But taht is what happened to me.

    One night last August (2001) I was sitting at the computer sometime around the early am hours in the dark with nothing to light the room but the glare of the monitor screen.  I was chattign with some friends from school in a local chat room when out the corner of my eye i saw someone walk from the front door in my direction.  I quickly looked toward the door but it was shut and there as no one there.  So i turned toward the monitor again thinking i was only tired and my mind was playing tricks on me.  But onlyl seconds went by when it happened again, this time i didtn look but felt someone standing behind me as if they were staring at the back of my head.  It suddenly got very cold in that room... I thought i was going insane so i slowly turned around and as i did  i could still see out the corner of my eye the figure of a man going on through the kitchen doorway.  He had on brown pants and what looked to me as a yellow shirt.  I sat there froze stiff from shock. I had never seen anythign like that before and was scared for waht i should do next.  After what seemed like forever i logged off the internet and turned off the computer but not before i turned on teh kitchen and livingroom lights along witht he television.  I never went to slelep that night. Instead i waite for Renee to wake up the next morning and told her what had happened.  She gave me a funny look and asked me if i was sure of whaw ti saw and i told her that i was pretty sure.  She then told me taht she had  seen the man too. And that he had also came in from the front door. Only when she saw him it was daylight.  She was sittin on the couch with Darren and seh looked up one day and saw this man walk through the living room fron the front porch, and he was wearing brown pants and a yellow shirt.  She described the man to Darren who got kind of mad then and told her she had just described his ex wife's uncle Roy.  It seems as though Roy had tried to take away Darrnes land that he built his house,  and almost succeeded.. He did takea large portion of it but Darren had managed to keep enough to build his house. Roy later died still in fued with Darren.  It freaked me  out when she told me this.  But she told me that she beleived that Roy is hanging around waiting for Darrne to forgive him for what he did.  Darren who never believed Roy was there until recently says he will do no such thing.

    Since that night i've never seen Roy again, ,but sometimes when i stay over there i wake up in the middle of the night sweatign and out of  breath as if i'd just had a night mare.  I lay frozen in my place and am afraid to move until morning. I've also heard someon call my name and when telling Renee about this the same voice will say "shhhh" but no one ever heard that but me.  I can't help but wonder if i'm goiing crazy... Its not often that things happen to me, , only rarely but they sure scare me for days afterward....
