The "Thing" in My Room
By Adam Winters
In 1995, we moved from the city into a really big, old
house in Oyster Bay Cove. The house was huge and beautiful
but we got it fairly cheaply because of what we thought was
the work that was needed. The house, when you walk in is a
long hallway, and immediately to the right is a den, the left
is a dining room, behind, a giant living room, and then a lot
of bedrooms and the liberary and sitting room and stairs up
to the east wing. Well, I went up the other stairs to the
west wing and there were two doors. I opened one and it was
a big room with a large bed. I opened the other and there
was a little room. I decided to make the big room mine. I went
in and unpacked, hung a few pictures on the wall, and declared
it mine. That night, I woke up and I saw a figure walk
across the room. It was a lady all in white. She looked at
me, and when she did, she had NO EYES!!! I freaked out and
hid under my covers. The next night, it happened again. I
told my parents and they didn't believe me. But one day, I
had a party and some of my friends slept over and the next morning,
someone said, "Hey Adam, who was that lady who came in here
last night?" I said "What lady?" and he said, "The one in white.
She looked really weird." I did some research and I found
out that the house had been built for a daughter and her
fiance by her rich parents and on the day of the wedding, she
was in the room(my room) and got so nervous and afraid, that
she killed herself in my room. I then told her to "Go Away"
and she did. She never returned.
