I haven't had any experiences in my house, I'm thankful that throughout the 17 years I've lived in this house there hasn't been any presence that I'm aware of, however I have had quite a few experiences at my friend's houses.

When I was about 12, I was over my friends house and she had always warned me that her house was haunted, she told me that a father and son had lived in the house before her and there were 2 different stories... The boy had definitely died, but in one story he was killed in her basement by his father and the other story was that he was playing with his friends and accidentally hung himself to death on a dog's leash, anyway it happened, it happened in the basement and I was always scared to death to go over her house and be left alone and so she teased me about it sometimes, but I didn't mind much at the time because her room was upstairs, but then her room became her sister's and she was moved into the basement.

Sometimes we would sit on her bed and we would hear strange things, it sounded like something was in the wall, trying to get out, but there was nothing there and sometimes the door would slam shut, I remember one time I was in her room alone and the door slammed shut by itself, I didn't think much of it at the time because I figured her little brother did it, but then my friend came down and I asked her if her brother was home and she said that no one was home and I was really spooked.

She had 2 little sister's, the older one at the time was 3 and she would always talk to someone who she said was named Evette, who was her aunt, but she died before she ever knew Emily and she used to always sing this cute little song that she made up and Emily started singing it and everyone was confused and so they asked her who taught her that and she said "the lady" referring to the ghost of her aunt I suppose.

She also used to stand in the basement in the corner near the room where the boy had supposedly died, talking to herself it appeared and when we asked her what she was doing, she told us that she was talking to the kids, however there was no one there. My friend claimed to always hear the voices of kids giggling and playing in that corner as well. I wasn't really a believer until this one day, it was probably one of the most horrifying experiences I've had... I was waiting outside for my friend while she went to the bathroom, I was just twirling around in her front yard waiting and then I heard her screaming and so I went up to the screen door and called out her name after I saw her run down the stairs which were positioned right next to the door and all of a sudden there was this human form with hardly any features, it was like a human filled in with that fuzz that you get on your tv, it appeared to be chasing her down the stairs... It stopped and seemed to turn its head and look at me and I freaked out and started screaming, then I heard the basement door slam and my friend ran outside and told me that the figure I saw walked into the bathroom and stood over my friend while she was going to the bathroom and then chased her downstairs.

Another experience I've had wasn't so scary, but odd... This was last summer, I was over another friend's house and her boyfriend was there, they had become obsessed with the ouija board. The ouija board had presented a spirit to us by the name of X, claiming that my friend's boyfriend was the antichrist [which I found very hard to believe] and that it wanted to possess one of us so that it could use our body to kill him so that his soul could go into hell and release all of the spirits in hell.

X was obsessed with the idea of possessing me, he seemed enamored by me or something, he kept on saying that he would possess the next person who walked down the street so that he could come in the yard and have sex with me and I said no and so he threatened to rape me, but then he settled down and the planchette started moving towards my hand and the point of the planchette spread apart my fingers and moved back and forth in between them in a humping motion, it was quite funny, but there was something very evil about this X character, he would make the planchette go extremely fast, at a ridiculously fast pace, we could hardly read it sometimes it would go so fast and when it got angry, it would fly off of the board and towards one of us. It was kind of funny, but after a while it started getting really weird. Well, if you would like to know more, just e mail me. I'll be in college this Sept., but I'll still have the same e mail address and hopefully I won't have any stories to tell about a haunted dorm room.
