hehe thanks,
(seems like my photoshop account had exceeded its bandwidth…weird...
that had never happened before...but I guess it's a good thing
it means that there are more people reading my work than ever before ; D)
fixing dead link
in the mean time...
I've mentioned before that I've had a few ghost encounters >___>;;
probably the reason why I like to listen and tell scary stories so much
anyway, this is one of the story, it has two parts
ehh...I actually wrote this sometime around october last year
all i did was copy and paste : P
it's um...moderately long, so enjoy XD!
1st Encounter
When I was around 6 or 7 I was still living in my family's apartment
room in Taiwan.
The structure of the house is as follows:
actually all you really need to know are the 3 bedrooms:
the MasterBedroom, my sister's room, and my room
Ever since we were littiel kids, me and my sis always had this 'problem'
when it comes to sleeping in her or my room…
though we've never experienced anything 'unusual' in those 2 rooms
we just had a BAD feeling about'em...
so I usually slept with my sister in her room, and my room was often deserted
Now one day my aunt from California came back to Taiwan for business purposes, and came to stay with us for a few days.
My dad was oversea at the time, so he's outta the picture.
There were only me, my sis, my mom, and my aunt in the house
One night my mom cooked dinner and we ate
my habit was to finish my meal quicky, and go straight into the shower of the Master Bedroom.
Another (bad) habit of mine is that I never take any clean clothes before I
go into the shower, so when I'm done showering, I'd waddle out wet and
butt-naked and go to my sister's room where our clothes are kept in this
huge closet...
I went off to shower, and as usual, did not get any clean clothes before
going into the shower, and waddled out wet and butt-naked to get clothes
from my sister's room.
It was dusk and kinda dark...and my sister's room was almost pitch-black
being afraid of the dark, I kept outta the room, and reached in one hand to fee forl the light switch.
I was attempting to turn on the light when I froze in my track, staring
into something like this in the room...
It was a shape of a girl or a woman, SITTING on my sister's chair, facing
towards the desk. I knew it was a girl because I could see the wavy
long hair…It is just a dark figure completely shrouded in shadow...
I was stunned for a moment, and thought that it was my sister inside
who was trying to scare me...
but I quickly dismissed that idea because I know for fact that my sis
ain't more courageous than I am, and she wouldn't be stupid enough
to scare herself sitting in a dark room like that
my theory becomes evident when I heard the voice of my mom, sis,
and aunt coming from the dining place
If everyone's over there...who's in the room???
Realizing that I'm dealing with something unnatural here...
and nearly scared outta my wits by now... I slowly backed from my sis's
room...back into the MasterBedroom...closed the door...locked it...
and sat on my parent's bed (still wet and naked)
unfortunately the air conditioner was on at the time, so this eventually
resulted in a cold XD;;;
Anyway...after half an hour, my mom wonderd what I was up to, knocked
on the door and told me to come out
I hurrily opened the door and told my mom about the shadowy women
SITTING on the chair
my mom said that I was talking nonsense again, and marched over to my
sister's room to turn on the light so she can examine the room.
I tried to stop her, fearing that if the light was turned on the shadow
would disappear...
too late though, and as I had predicted, the woman was gone...
I examined the chair, and found that there was no object on it that might
resemble a shape of a woman, there was only my sis's lil purse hanging on it
I told everyone about what I have seen, and my mom thinks it was time to
limit the time I spend in front of TV...
However...my aunt's following comment shocked us all...
"Oh!! About the shadowy figure!! I saw the same thing today as well"
According to my aunt, just before dinner, she went to call my sister for
dinner. However, she didn't know my sis isn't home at the time.
She couldn't find my sis anywhere, and ventured into my room
at that time it was near dusk, and the room was pretty dark
my aunt scanned around the room and saw a figure sitting on my chair
my aunt says "O Judy!! here you are!" and turned on the light
and as soon as the light was turned on...the figure was gone...
I was absolutely terrified by this...however, my aunt didn't seem at all
worried. She told me that everything that had occured could be proven by
scientific methods.
She then started to talk about abuncha stuff about how if an object stays
in one location too long, with the reflection of the light blah blah blah, and
when the person leaves and the light closed, his shadow will remain blah
blah blah...and rambled on...
and of course all these were too complicated for a 6 years old, and fearing
for the possibility that there is actually something inhuman that exists in
our rooms...
I dismissed this matter as my aunt has explained: All can be proven by
scientific reasons...
Soon afterwards I forgot about the whole thing, and the event of the
shadow in the room becomes lost in my memory...waiting to be recovered
one day.
Second Encounter
When I was 9 our family moved to Canada, and we left our apartment
to my (other) aunt and uncle's use.
My aunt and uncle moved into our apartment for several years, with no
mentioning of anything strange that might've been going on…
and then moved outta our apartment to live somewhere else...
After so many years, the furnishing within our apartment has dramatically
changed.
For example, my sister's room used to contain a lil reading desk, a chair,
a big closet, a piano, and a bed.
However, most of the stuffs have been moved out, and there was only a
bed remaining in the room. (we'll get back to this matter later)
When I was 11, I returned to Taiwan during the summer and stayed in our
old apartment.
And so far the memory of the past event concerning the shadow was still
lost to me, and I was gaining access to all of the rooms with ease.
One day near dusk, I was left alone in the house. I was lying lazily on the
sofa watching TV, and wanted to get something outta the MasterBedroom.
I should also mention now all of the rooms are pretty dark now, and the
doors are left open.
I made my way towards the MasterBedroom...
never made it though...for I froze in my track...just a few inches from the
entrance to my sister's room...staring right into the room...
The next thing I know...I was scrambling outta the apartment
I slammed the metal front door shut behind him (thank god it auto-locks
so that I wouldn't have to go back and lock it)
Not being able to wait for the elevator...I scrambled up the stairs to my
friend's house, missing several steps and scraping my knees
(my friend lives on the 7th, I the 5th)
My friend opened the door and I bursted in, yelling at her to lock the door
As you might've guessed, yes, I did see the shadow again...
but why was I so terrified this time??
As I mentioned before, the furnishing has changed greatly in the room,
and the chair and table and piano have been long removed...
I also stressed earlier that in my first encounter with the shadow...the
shadow was sitting on a chair
so...
with the chair now gone...
and no where to sit...
the shadow...
STOOD...
and that's it =
umm...I still go back to live in that apartment when I go back to Taiwan for summer vacation
I've never seen it again after the 2nd encounter
and I've taken precaution to not to
I'd close the door of the middle door (as well as my own bedroom) before the sun sets
and of course I wouldn't dare to go into the room at night
plus I'd sleep on the couch instead of in those three rooms
an interesting thing that happened recently is that my grandma moved into our apartment
now...my grandma is a monk and a devoted buddhist
so...monk vs. ghost....shrug XD;
I'm looking foward to going back to that apartment this summer vacation
I'll be living there for 3 months as well ; )
so...we'll see XD!
s it so far
