Weird Things Have Been Happening To Me My Entire Life

I don't really know where to begin. I am 20 years old and a college student at UF in Gainesville. I don't believe in ghosts / paranormal spirits or demons or any of that, and this is my first time writing about these experiences since my childhood as I didn't wan't to appear crazy or be made fun of. I figure the best way to get it out is over the internet, so at least you can't see who I am.

It all started when I was about 4 or 5 at the time and I lived in Saint Petersburg, FL on a lake that my mother had bought. I remember her pushing me on our swing we had attached to our tree; she had been on the telephone and had to run inside. She was working a lot being a single mother at 20.

There was a house right behind where we had set up the swing. I remember turning around after she had gone inside and seeing two red eyes staring at me from underneath the neighbours' tree. It was almost as if the light didn't penetrate the ground through the trees. It was just two red eyes and complete darkness. Now of course this scared me to death and I cried and ran inside and told my mother and she blamed the scary movies I had been watching, and made me believe it was a coincidence. Now as time went on things got scarier.

I remember one night waking up to see a figure standing in my door way. I immediately pulled the covers over my head and slept like that the rest of the night.

Time went on without any incidents and I had forgotten about it in time. Until one night, and please bear with me as this may sound crazy.

I opened my eyes and turned over to the other side of my bed and there was something lying in bed right next to me. I remember feeling a tingling sensation run up and down my back as I witnessed it almost a feeling of paralysis. I haven't told anyone about that as I don't want to sound like an idiot, but I can't explain it.

As time went on and I got older I moved, yet it felt like everywhere I went I was being watched. I would be randomly walking to the kitchen and get an intense tingly sensation throughout my body.

One night I would say close to midnight, I was in the shower and heard the bloody awful scream that sounded as if someone was being murdered. I rushed out of the shower to check on my parents who were sound asleep. Until this day I cannot explain what I heard. I am really sceptical but I don't have anywhere else to turn or anyone to talk to about this.

Things only have gotten scarier. I will have cabinet doors fly open in front of me and have my food thrown on the ground. I will feel wisps of cool air against my neck and back when a fan or AC isn't even running. The oddest thing about the whole situation is I am not a religious person. I don't understand why these things would follow me?

What made me write this entire story to you all today is what just happened about two hours ago.

My parents were out getting groceries and I was in the garage smoking a cigarette. I heard a car pull up into our drive way, the engine turned off, and I heard a car door open and shut... As soon as I heard the door shut I got a tingly sensation and heard a whisper in my ear, I couldn't quite make out what it was saying, but it was definitely there, it sounded almost as if it was beckoning me or calling my name. I freaked out ran into the house and locked the doors, looked outside and there was no car in sight. I am getting really scared and I don't know what to do about it. The last incident happened about two weeks ago, I was standing in my living room talking to my grandfather when out of the corner of my eye, it appeared as if a ball had just rolled by the door way where I was standing, chuckling thinking my grandpa was joking around I went to go and get it, what do you know... No ball anywhere, not even a single toy from my daughters' room was out. Please if you read this do not call me crazy, I need help... I don't want to be afraid to be in my own house anymore or afraid to fall asleep in fear something will harm me.
