Tall Black Figure

My name is Brittany Carrigan, I am 12 years old and live in Alberta. My mom and I used to live in an apartment on the third floor.

One morning, I was up quite early and my dog started barking for absolutely no reason. A few minutes later, I turned and saw my lamp flickering uncontrollably. About a week later, my mom and her friend went downstairs to look at a van and I stayed upstairs alone. I don't remember what movie I was watching, but all of a sudden, the lamp just turned off. Now, after that, I was pretty scared and ran downstairs to where my mom was. The scary stuff stopped for about a month, than it began again. I was just going to bed and it was about 9:30pm. I was fixing my pillows when, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a tall black figure standing in the hallway. I quickly turned my head but nothing was there. I told my mom about this and she brought my step dad there for a night. After that, every thing slowed down and wasn't so bad.

Now I live in a house across town from the apartment and still have a hard time even walking by our old home. The worst part about it is that one of my friends live on the second floor of the same apartment.
