MY NAME IS JACKIE. I WAS BORN IN ELGIN, ILLINOIS, AND RAISED IN MIAMI, FLORIDA.
AND, THIS IS WHERE MY STORY TOOK PLACE...
I DON'T KNOW IF IT'LL SCARE ANYONE THE WAY IT SCARED ME BUT, IT WAS SCARY
ENOUGH. IT TOOK PLACE WHEN I WAS ABOUT TEN YEARS OLD, I THINK. I WOKE UP
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT TO FIND MY PARENTS NOT HOME. I WAS HOME ALONE
WITH MY THREE BROTHERS AND THEY WERE SLEEPING, AS WELL. BEING SO YOUNG
AT THE TIME, I TURNED ON ALL THE LIGHTS, BECAUSE OF COURSE I WAS SCARED
OF THE DARK. I LOOKED OUTSIDE TO SEE IF I COULD SEE MY PARENTS; AND DID
NOT.
AS I WAS SITTING IN THE KITCHEN, THIS FIGURE APPEARED. I COULDN'T SEE ITS
BODY - JUST ITS FACE. IT WAS FLOATING UP IN THE AIR AND WAS TRANSPARENT;
BUT, I COULD TELL IT WAS A MAN. FOR SOME REASON, I FELT AS THOUGH IT WERE
THE SPIRIT OF THE MAN WHO BETRAYED JESUS WHEN HE WAS ON EARTH. I KNOW
YOU THINK I'M CRAZY BUT I'M NOT...AND I'M NOT LYING EITHER. THIS IS THE FEELING
I GOT FROM THIS SPIRIT...THIS EVIL SPIRIT;AND THE REASON I SAY THAT IS BECAUSE
OF WHAT HE WAS SAYING. HE STARTED TO TELL ME THAT MY PARENTS HAD DIED.
AND I WAS LIKE, "NO!!!" AND HE SAID, "YES, THEY DID." I TOLD THE SPIRIT TO SHUT
UP!! YET, HE KEPT SAYING IT. I TOLD HIM TO GO AWAY (I HELD MY EARS CLOSED
WITH MY HANDS, AND FOR SOME REASON I STARTED TO HUM CHRISTMAS CAROLS.
I DO NOT KNOW WHY). THIS EVIL SPIRIT STARTED TO TELL ME TO STOP; AND TO
STOP HUMMING THESE CHRISTMAS CAROLS!! HE STARTED TO YELL, TELLING ME
TO STOP IT; BUT, I DIDN'T. THIS BOTHERED HIM FOR SOME ODD REASON, AND HE
STARTED TO VANISH...AND HE WAS GONE. I GRABBED A DECK OF
CARDS...PETRIFIED; AND STARTED TO PLAY SOME GAME ON MY OWN, TO KEEP
MYSELF AWAKE. I WAS SCARED TO FALL ASLEEP, BUT I DID. AND I REMEMBER MY
PARENTS WALKING IN THROUGH THE HOUSE, AND I WOKE UP AND STARTED TO TELL
THEM WHAT HAPPENED. I STARTED TO CRY, AND I TOLD THEM, "I THOUGHT YOU
WERE DEAD!!" THEY SAID, "WHAT? WE JUST WENT FOR A WALK." THEY TOLD ME I
WAS DREAMING, AND TO GO BACK TO BED. AFTER THAT I NEVER MENTIONED IT
AGAIN, BUT IT WAS A SCARY MOMENT.
I'VE ALWAYS BEEN INTERESTED WITH THE PARANORMAL; BUT I THINK WHEN IT
COMES TO SEEING A GHOST, OR SPIRIT, OR WHATEVER YOU MAY WANT TO CALL IT
- I'LL PASS. WELL, I HOPE MY TRUE STORY AMUSES YOU; IT SURE DIDN'T AMUSE ME.
OR, HOPEFULLY IT WILL MAKE YOU BELIEVE THAT THEY EXIST IN MANY DIFFERENT
WAYS AND FORMS, BUT THEY WILL APPROACH YOU IN ANY WAY.
