Scary Stories
I want everyone to know that although I don’t post very often, I do still check this site. I have another site that I spend most of my time on, www.amherstlane.com, but this one still has a special place in my heart. This is where I can talk about the things that really interest me on a deeper level, the supernatural.
So, since it is October, I’m feeling festive. I would like for people to share their scariest stories. Preferrably, the ones about the unreal and supernatural.
I’ll go first.
When we were children, my brother and I were sent to spend the night with some friends of the family. We were being watched by a couple of teenage girls. We must have been about three or four years old.
Anyway, It was late and we were supposed to go to bed. Well, as we were getting ready to go to bed, we began hearing noises outside. This was out in the boonies of Northeast Texas, so it was pretty remote. The noises became louder and more violent. The girls began getting scared, so we did too. We heard banging on the windows. The girls began running around the house locking doors and windows. We jumped on top of the bed and huddled together. Then the bedroom door flew open. There was a spector standing there draped from head to toe in a sheet, moaning. The girls screamed and my brother and I hid under the covers.
I don’t remember anything after that.
Obviously telling this story, makes me understand that since the girls were home alone with us, it was probably some boy playing a prank on them.
But, as small children, we couldn’t tell the difference. I was as terrified as I’ve ever been in my entire life. The truly haunting part of this is that I have never been able to remember what happened afterwards. After I hid my head under the blanket, my memory goes blank. I don’t even remember being picked up the next day.
So, it’s your turn. Tell me a story.
