Well, I can’t exactly say what I saw was a ghost. But it sure was a human object I couldn’t see through.
I’ve kept this experience to myself for decades and finally shared it with my brother a couple of years ago.
Anyway, I was seventeen, it was 1972 and I was awakened by someone pulling my feet. Yes, at the time I
was sleeping but I immediately opened my eyes from what I called, “shock-sleep”. I got my bearings and looked
at the end of my twin bed. The feeling of cold hands around my ankles were real. The black hooded figure
never moved but continued pulling my feet. Trying to scream I was so frightened I panicked and froze. As the
sheets and blankets started to cover my face, I gathered up enough strength and pulled myself back to the top
of the bed. I looked over the bedding again, and it was still standing there with the reflection of the snow outside
back lighting its body. As I covered my face again, I wanted it to disappear. It finally did. I remained awake until
morning, never forgetting that night. To this very day, I can not walk through my house without turning on the
lights and looking down my darken hallway wishing I don’t come across that same visitor.
I am 1/8 Native American and I remember as a child my grandmother and aunt would tell me the wonderful
things I would experience growing up but never to be afraid of them.
I had a similar experience which I now know to be caused by sleep-paralysis. I froze and tries to scream but nothing came out. It was quite scary at the time, less so now I know what it is. I’ve had it a couple of times since but its very rare.
What I have left out, seriously, was the wet impressions left in the carpet. It gives me goosebumps as I text this.
I do. “Ghost” is just a pretty word for demonic spirit.
I do. I tend to want hard evidence for most things, but I’ve had a few inexplicable things happen. As Egon says in TMNT/Ghostbusters, “It’s conservation of energy as applied to the soul.”
Actually, demonic spirit and ghost are typically considered two different things. A ghost is the spirt of person that was once living, while a demonic spirt was never alive at all.
I’ll believe in anything you say if there’s a steady paycheck involved…
I don’t think so. The concept of Ghosts have been around since recorded history, maybe even longer. People do see and experience the strange and unusual. It can’t all be dismissed as swamp gas or “All in the Mind.” there’s something to it, but whether it’s a human soul or a yet to be discovered natural phenomenon we may never know for sure. It’s one of those things that will probably never be properly studied.
I used to be a skeptic. I’ve had few experiences ghost hunting to prevent me from saying somethings not there. While I try to find the source of the “phenomena” some things can’t be explained away by moving curtains.
I will bet if you stay at the Stanley hotel, or waverly hills sanatorium you’ll be changing your mind on the ghost’s don’t exist issue pretty damn quick.
ooops, deja vu 
I don’t have any first-hand experiences, but I’m inclined to believe there’s stuff we don’t know about yet and it could be possible that there are other plains of existence.
I agree. I’m just not ready to meet them at the present time. LOL
