The Shadow Ghost

My house I live in today is haunted. It really started along time ago although I do not know the exact date. One day I was standing in my room watching t.v. (all by my self in the house), waiting for my cousin to come over, when I saw a shadowy figure float past my room really fast into my parents room. Needless to say I was terrified. The next day we all went to the movies. We had seen "Stir of Echoes" and when we got home we : my mom, my cousin and I (my dad was in the other room), were sitting in the kitchen eating sandwiches talking about the movie. As I was talking I saw another shadow this time outside the front yard. It was visible from the kitchen and living room window. I did a double take then I told my mom and cousin what had happened. A lot of times when my cousin comes over, we will experience things. We both have heard whispers. I heard somebody call my name many times. When you walk down the hallway, sometimes it makes creaking noises. Well alot of times you can hear the creaking noises even when nobody is walking. One night my cousin was over again. I had went into the kitchen to throw some garbage away and when I bent down to put the garbage away, I felt someone floating over me.I quickly walked out of the kitchen into the hallway and felt it following me. The faster I walked the faster it moved. I ran in my room and told my cousin what had happened. One day the light fixture almost fell on my head in the kitchen. I also heard a sound coming from the ceiling like the sound a dog makes when it runs along the floor. I have even heard a child voice and man's voice from the outside backyard. It was nighttime. One day the bathroom faucet turned on by itself full blast. my mom was by herself in the house and she heard the back screen door open and the front screen door open and close. They were both locked. My dad also being alone in the house heard the front door open and close. It' a big metal screen so it makes noise everytime you open and close it. One early morning around 5:00 am, a cabinet nailed to the wall came crashing down. It had been up since we had moved in about 4 or 5 years ago.I don't know what it is but it is a little freaky and here I am 20 years old afraid to sleep with lights out. A lot of times I will feel someone watching me while I sleep. Well I hope you enjoyed my story.
