Heavy Ghost

It was early 70's in Glasgow, Scotland.

Willie was then an agent for various pop groups and his wife has gone out to one of her singing gigs along with their young daughter. Willie was alone in his house for the first time since they'd moved in. He had not been drinking, has never taken drugs neither was he on any medication at that time.

At around 2-3am in the morning he went to visit the lavatory and then obviously came back to bed. He was lying awake when he heard heavy breathing beside him. He thought that it must be his own breathing but when he held his breath, the 'other breathing' continued.

He then almost immediately felt a huge heavy weight on his chest and really thought he was going to die of suffocation. He said over and over in his mind:

'God help me! God help me!'

The pressure eased almost immediately even though this incantation was silent. Willie said he rushed out of the bedroom and into the living room where he said that he looked into a mirror and saw his hair standing on end. He rushed out of the house and drove around. He didn't return until it was light.

When he recounted the story to his wife it frightened her enough for them to put their double mattress in the living room for over 6 months before they could sell the house. However during that time he said that his body sweated out a real stink for quite a few weeks.

After this incident and he has never been able to explain any of it. What to you think it could have been? Even when he recalls it today you can see the fear in him.

He has had other things happen to him so must be sensitive to spirits. The house was a lovely home in a normal street nothing too grand or expensive and not even that old. Strange eh!

We often drive past the house and he really regrets having had to leave it -

There are people living there still so obviously they've not had experiences themselves as far as we know.
