Bathroom Ghosts

I have no idea what these two ghosts wanted, but if they could not even leave me alone in the bathroom, they must have wanted something.

The first story took place, I think, in 2008 and the second one in 2013.

Here comes the first one.

This happened after my parents got a divorce. I think it was a few months after, when my dad got his apartment close to my mom's.

Because we didn't have a bathtub in mom's apartment, I went over to dad's that had one. I remember that dad had to go somewhere so I was alone. I filled the tub and got in. I was just laying there, relaxing and looking up on the ceiling. Then suddenly, in the corner of my right eye, on the wall, I see a black shadow just pass by and then disappear. I sit up while my heart starts to beat faster. I'm trying to figure out if what I saw was real or if it just was the wind making the drape move or if it was car lights. But, the window was not opened, so it could not have been the wind, and dad was living on the second floor, so now car lights couldn't come through the glass. I even moved the drape myself, looked at the wall to see if it made the same shadow.

When it didn't, I emptied the tub, put on my clothes even without drying, walked very fast out of the apartment and almost ran to my mom's. I even turned my head to see if something or someone was in the windows, staring after me. To my relief, there was nothing.

When I came to my mom's she wondered why I was back so early, so I told her what happened. For me it was a bit weird when she said that it probably was nothing, when she has experienced stuff herself. My mom kind of has the "gift" to sense and see spirits. So why did it feel like she didn't really believed me?

And who was this ghost? Why was it in the bathroom? All I know is that this shadow was a man, because of how it was shaped and it had some kind of a hat.

Here comes the second one.

This happened March this year (2013) For some strange reason, every time I went to the bathroom to take a shower, someone knocked on the door. At first I thought it was mom, because she sometimes want something, so I turned off the water and answer with a "Yes?" When I didn't get an answer, I just thought that my mom maybe changed her mind and walked away. So I didn't think about it.

But when the knockings even happened when I was home alone, my thoughts made a turn. I didn't get scared or anything, because there was only one or two knockings and then no more and that this thing didn't try to get in. It was more like, "I'm here, I'm watching you." Sometimes I ignored it and sometimes I told it to go away. I'm taking a shower for god's sake, it's private.

The knockings would stop for a few weeks, but it happened again when my boyfriend came to visit. He never heard the knockings, but one time when I was done with the shower and my boyfriend walked in to the bathroom, he came out and said that the drapes were opened. That's weird, because I always close them when I'm done showering and I know that I closed them this time too.

My boyfriend even saw a shadow slide from the kitchen and into the hallway that leads to the other bathroom and he got a feeling that this shadow was not nice. But the longer my boyfriend stayed, the more this shadow kept its distance and then it was suddenly gone.

Who was this shadow? Can it be the same one in my dad's old apartment back in 2008? Or can it even be the bald headed man that I saw behind the sofa when I was 7? And why did it go away when my boyfriend was around? Any ideas?

Thank you for reading.
