When I was growing up my family and I lived in an old Victorian-mansion styled home in New Jersey which almost resembled a small castle. It was a unique experience looking back at growing up in that old place but there are dark things that I had experienced that will not ever fade away from my memories.
My first impression of reflecting back upon that old place was when I was a kid I was scared at nights (like most kids are) but remember breaking out in sweats and just lying there waiting for something to happen. There were times were I would see "shadow-like people" walking through and coming out of the walls in our rooms. The reason I use the term "shadow-people" is because that is exactly what they were just dark shadows resembling human shapes that would materialize and or fade out of existence. The most frightening thing that ever happened to me in that house was when I was watching one of those "shadow things" for several minutes and then out of nowhere I saw a flash of light and I was smacked in my face/head. I remember getting up off the floor and instantly jumping back in bed and under the covers trying to wake my brother up. I was very young back then but even to this day I know it really did happen and it will always be burned into my memory.
Years later...
This incident happened just a few years ago. My Wife and I were living with her parents because I had just moved to the PA area. My wife her mother and I were talking about our baby who was going to be born within the next few months when all of the sudden, small glass bowls (which sat-stacked within eachother-Bigger,big,small,smaller-style) exploded within the cabinets. Glass fragments shot out all the way through the kitchen, down the steps into the foyer. Even to this day her Mother has no explanation for the incident. They didn't fall and nothing fell on top of them, it was just like some invisible force shattered the glass pieces within the cabinet!
The next thing as far as a Ghost/Poltergeist happened after my son was born and we were living in my wife's parent's basement. It was early in the morning between the hours of 2-3:30am. I awoke feeling some kind of dark energy in the room. It's hard to explain in words but it was like something silent, dark and heavy had entered the house and woke me up. Now what's really scary is my wife must have woken up as well with me not knowing it at the time and tried to wake me up. She turned towards me and wrapped around me saying she was scared. The next thing we both knew was our door knob was turning and we heard it. We always kept our door locked so we could have some privacy as her father usually stayed downstairs and watched TV in the next room but he was working night shift. The door knob stopped rattling as fast as it started and I then told my wife to check things out lol! Seriously though there was no sign of an intruder and we both (my wife and I) have no explanation as to what occurred...
The final haunted encounter for me personally happened just a few years back when I had bought my first house. I was like 22 and this incident happened within the first 2 years of living at our new house. It was between the hours of 3-4am and I remember having the worst nightmare about someone breaking into my house and killing me and my family! It was probably the worst dreadful feeling I had ever experienced in my entire life. The next thing I know I'm awakened to the sound of my 2 year old son screaming bloody murder. My wife and I ran into his room and picked him up and held him. Things went back to normal and then I tried to go back to sleep before going into work in the next several hours.
While I was sleeping my wife took my son down to the store to get some things we needed. My wife pulled out of her parking space (We live on a one-way street) drove not even fifty yards and crashed her car and was trapped upside down in it with my son inside. A neighbour was outside but did not see the actual wreck just heard the sound of it all. He helped my wife and my son to safety and they were alright... I was awake for good this time and was in complete shock to see her car upside down not even 5-7 car lengths away from our house. The accident didn't make any sense and of course the police had very little to say and did very little investigating on the crash scene. Sometimes I wonder if whatever it was that woke me up as well as my son would the almost "freak-accident" have occurred?
...Thank you the reader for looking at my real stories on here. Let me know what you think. I swear that this is all completely true! Sometimes I wonder if I am not being followed by the Ghost that I will never forget...
