Mysterious Ghost Following Me

Before I begin, if you have not read my previous entries, please do so as it might make this entry easier to understand. The link to my first story is http://www.yourghoststories.com/real-ghost-story.php?story=22769 and the link to my second story is http://www.yourghoststories.com/real-ghost-story.php?story=22846

This story takes place about two months after the previous one. I was with the friend from the first story and we had just been in my basement playing video game and decided to go upstairs to get something from my room (two flights up). Although I do not remember what it was, that is not important to the story.

We were going up the stairs to my room and then all of a sudden I felt a sharp pain in my wrist as if someone had just scratched it. The stairs are quite wide and we were walking in the center, so there was nothing for me to scrape it against.

I looked down to my wrist and saw there was a scratch running across it, with blood coming out. Unsure of what had scratched me, and not really caring, I continued walking up the stairs until I was scratched again, but this time on the outside of my other wrist. My first assumption was not that it was paranormal, but that somehow something on my clothes had snagged my wrists.

Fast forward about a week, and I was sleeping over at my friend's house. We were up in his attic playing video games again (I played a lot of video games when I was younger), and we went downstairs to get something to drink. In his kitchen, there are two big windows where you can see the entire backyard. It was still light out and as I looked out the window, I saw a girl who looked about 9 - 11 years old in a slightly dirty white and yellow dress, that looked like it was from the late 1800s to early 1900s.

I turned around to tell my friend to look out the window, but when we looked back, there was nothing there. We went outside and looked around the backyard, but still found nothing.

As we were walking back up the stairs, I felt the same scratching on my wrists, but this time I felt like someone was watching; almost seeing how I was reacting. Then out of the corner of my eye I saw the girl again, but this time at the landing at the top of the stairs.

My friend, who is a little more faint of heart then I am, screamed and his parents came rushing out of there room. Now, their room is right at the end of the landing, but as the walked out, the girl simply stepped to the side and vanished through the wall.

His mom is a very strong believer, and had experiences with the unknown as a child but said she "Shut it out" as she didn't want them anymore. After we finished telling her what had just happened she said, "It's okay, it was probably just a trick of the light. Just go back upstairs. Dinner will be ready in a half hour." To this day, the spot on the wall where she disappeared remains cold, even during the heat of summer.

These experiences shocked me and happened a lot with and without my friend many times, and even still sometimes happens today. Sometimes I will just see her and not have the scratchings, or just have scratching and not see her. These events shocked and scared me as I had previously thought ghosts can't touch you.

Hopefully someone can make sense of this,
