Being a sensitive, I suppose I should have expected this. And I guess I did maybe a little, but still it startled me. See, I just moved into my dorm at college about a month ago, and of course, it didn’t take long for the unexplained to follow. The second weekend I was here, I went to bed around midnight, which is pretty early for me. I was laying there, not really that tired, and I kept getting this weird vibe, the same feeling I usually get when something weird is about to happen. I look over at left side of the bed, and boom, standing there is a fully body apparition of a really creepy looking man. I got a pretty negative feeling from him, and just as I was about to jump out of bed (on the right side of course!) he faded away. I sat back, my heart beating a little fasting, wondering why I got a negative feeling from a definite human spirit.
This guy hasn’t reappeared thus far, and I hope he never will. I don’t mind spirits most of the time, but I do mind when they bring that negative feeling with them that always makes me so uneasy. And of course, this hasn’t been the only thing to happen.
So far, only one other thing has happened, but we’ll see if it stays that way. I was sitting in bed again and had just turned off the TV to go to sleep. I happened to glance over at my roommate’s desk chair. I could swear it was rocking back and forth! But it was pretty dark and I was tired, so I just tried to ignore it and sleep. But then I kept getting the urge to look over at it again, just to see if it had been rocking or if ut was really just my eyes playing tricks on me. By now, my eyes had adjusted to the dark completely, and it still looked like the chair was moving. So, I decided to ask the possible spirit if it could just rock the chair a little harder, and I carefully watched the chair’s shadow on the wall to see if it covered up the any of the nearby heater. The chair rocked back and forth. Although I thought I’d already seen it, I really expected it to just be my eyes. But the shadow covered up part of the heater, and as I was staring at the chair, it kept moving for a minute or two. And I aksed the spirit if it could make it rock a little harder. I watched the chair legs move, back and forth, pretty distinctively. All I could think was “whoa”; but it did not scare me. I didn’t get a negative vibe from whatever it was, so I then went to sleep.
Since then, I’ve seen the chair rock back and forth one more time, a couple nights ago. I hope whoever or whatever it is making the chair move will feel comfortable staying here if they aren’t willing to move on. I don’t mind having spirits around if they are gentle like this one seems to be.
(Not sure if this is connected to anything in anyway, but just wanted to mention it. They say spirits can communicate through dreams. I remember my dreams maybe once every other month or maybe less, but for some reason this last week, I’ve had these really odd dreams every night, and so far I’ve been able to remember them all but one. Perhaps some spirit is trying to communicate?……….Or maybe I just need to stop snacking before bed! ;D )
