Private Home

Here is a story from one of our reader’s of her own experience!

I have seen a man, he is tall and wears a checked shirt. I call it a Dan Conner shirt. My daughter has seen him twice. I have seen him twice. My husband has seen him once. I have also seen a little girl, but in the field across from us, not in the house. I see her running and playing mostly, and I always feel like I'm missing something, like I've missed what someone has tried to tell me. No one else seems to see her, except one of my neighbours, but he sees her in his house.

When the man appeared to me, the first time, he was watching me from across the room. I saw him very briefly, a glance. I couldn't make out any features, just that he was wearing a checked shirt, and that he was really tall. The second time, he walked down the stairs, and I saw his shadow followed him, thinking it was my husband.

I don't like him. He makes me feel scared. The little girl I only see in the field across from us. She's usually playing it seems. I have seen her as close as the tree line at the end of our street. I thought it was a little girl, playing hide and seek at first, but no one else could see her. I like her, I feel like maybe she just wants help, but she does not scare me at all.

I haven't seen the little girl in about a year, and the man hasn't come around in about 5. That's only me though. Like I said, I have some neighbours that have seen both of them as well. I don't think it's our house, which is pretty much a shoebox among a lot of other shoeboxes.
