My story begins about two years ago when my close friend
Darlene got divorced and bought a home for her and her two
sons.
Everything seemed normal at first. The house was only
four years old and had no basement. It is a rather small
home with only three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen and
living room. There is also a detached garage.
This was a perfect place for Darlene and her two sons, a
house and four acres for the three horses they own. But
things changed pretty quickly.
Darlene started to notice
happenings but didn't tell her sons, worried they would be
frightened. It was at this time that Darlene began to talk
to me.
After only living in the house for a few weeks things
began to go missing and lights would be turned on or off
with out anyone visibly doing so. Darlene thought it to be
her youngest son, then only 9 years old, causing these
little occurrences. Kyle told Darlene time and time again
that it wasn't him.
About this time Kyle began to tell Darlene there was
someone in his closet making noises. Kyle's closet backs up
to his mother's closet, so Darlene just told him he was
imagining things. At this time Darlene noticed the house
key she left in the garage had gone missing. She wasn't
worried and soon forgot about the missing key.
Almost a year went by with lights turning themselves on
and off, things missing and even the telephone ringing
sending 333333 across the caller id, but that wasn't even
scary compared to what happened in January of 2004.
One Friday night my boyfriend and I went up to Darlene's
to watch movies with her and her two sons. Right before we
got up to leave we heard something in the attic above the
room. It sounded like someone throwing jacks across the
floor in the attic. (Just like when you play the game jacks)
Needless to say we were all terrified. My boyfriend and I
decided to go ahead and leave but told Darlene if anything
happens to call us. That night Darlene woke up to hear
someone slam the toilet lid in her bathroom and walk out of
her room into the hallway. Though frightened she just
curled up and went back to sleep.
But this wasn't the end. The next night while sitting in
the living room Darlene's son Kyle looked down the hallway
and became very pale. "Mom, Mom, a little girl just ran out
of the bathroom into the hallway and into my room!!!" Kyle
would see this little ghost girl many times that night and
ended up going to his father's house to stay because he was
so badly frightened. That was the last straw. Darlene and I
went to our priest and told him the entire story.
To our astonishment he was not surprised. He proceeded to
tell us it could be a ghost or the devil. See the devil
will come as a child as to not fright people so they will
willingly let him into their homes. We were shaken by what
he had told us and didn't know what to do. He gave us holy
water and told us to sprinkle it in all the rooms of the
house and garage and say "In the name of Jesus Christ leave
this place!". He then told us to sprinkle the holy water
and salt around the outside of the house/garage and repeat
the same thing. Before sending us on our way he said to
make sure we did all spaces in the rooms
(closets,cabinets,doorways...) and to hang a cross in each
and every room. The priest said if this doesn't work to
come see him again, that he and another priest would then
hold an exorcism at Darlene's house.
We went home that very night and blessed the house just
like the priest told us. Thank God, Darlene has had no
more happenings but we did do a little research. The
property Darlene's home is built on used to be a farm. Her
house sits on top of a hill. The people that owned this
farm were struck by the flu epidemic and many died. In
Kentucky it is tradition to have your family cemetery a top
a hill on your property. Though we have yet to find a
cemetery we think this is the only explanation for the
little girl.
Just and ending note...the missing key was found on the top
shelf of Kyle's closest. Kyle couldn't have done this
because you would have to get a ladder to reach that shelf
and he didn't know the key was gone in the first place.
Also we think the little girl has traveled to the neighbors
considering ever since we blessed Darlene's home they are
now having eerie happenings in there's.
Thank you for listening to my story. My story is only
a small sliver of all the things that happened in her home.
