A while back, I lived in Michigan with my family. I never really thought there was anything odd about our house until I realized something a long time later.
The only place I really didn't like to be in our house was the basement at night, but I think that alot of people are like that. Now, here is what happened to me.
About once a week, sometimes more, sometimes less, I would wake up in the middle of the night. I would wake up all of a sudden, like getting woken up from a nightmare, although I can't remember actually having any before I woke up. I would open my eyes, and it would look just like someone was standing over me. It would always scare me to death, and I would reach over really quick and turn on my reading light. There was never anything there, and I would just lay there, my heart pounding, with the light on for a bit until I calmed down and went back to sleep.
Now, here is the odd part. I always figured
that I must have just had a nightmare that I
couldn't remember and just be seeing things
in the dark. Well, I realize now, now that I
haven't lived in that house for about 5
years, I haven't had that happen to me once
since! Nightmares, sure, once in a while,
but never that feeling of someone over me.
