Little Human
I remember the first time my sister brought her home. She was cute, agile, light on her feet, and the new delight of the household. I remembered how I wanted her to warm up to me as quickly as possible, but that wasn’t likely to happen on my schedule, but on hers. I would always want her attention, and how I would desire her to come to me and follow me. Yet, as I stated before, she did that on her own time and not on mine. I would have to learn to enjoy her company, and that when she would want to have our personal space overlap, that she would approach me.

Warning Wind
As I recall, it was a week before my birthday. September had begun ushering in the light autumn winds which shook the yellowing leaves on their scraggly branches. The usually green needles of the yellow pines began to dim to the color of their namesakes. And the tall grass was flattening all around the slopes of the mountain as the last long days of the year began to shorten.

The Paranormal Experience
Growing up I was always into mysteries. At the age of ten I read a story on using baby powder to communicate with the other side. Nothing happened when I gave it a try, other than my mom seeing an opportunity to try and scare me. Her plan backfired, I wasn’t scared I was intrigued! Which makes me wonder, did she really mess with it or did she try to cover it up? I accepted the fact that she had done it, I mean back then I didn’t really believe in ghosts like most kids did. At the age of twelve we moved into an older small house. Walking in I felt kinda uneasy but didn’t understand it so I brushed it off as nerves-of being in a new space. The first few weeks went by fine, some nights I’d have trouble falling asleep but nothing that was suspicious at the time. That soon changed, one night I was in bed and I turned my light off. I had a touch lamp on my bedside table. Soon as the room went dark I had this strong feeling overcome me. I sat up a bit trying to look around the room, there was a little light coming in through my window from a street light. As I scanned the room I saw flash images, of this old man holding a knife. He was coming towards me. I screamed, pulled the cover around me, too scared to turn my lamp on. My mom ran in and flipped the ceiling light on. I jumped up out of bed and ran right past her and into her room. The bedrooms were conjoined with a door between them. Dad was awake so I jumped in bed beside him crying. He asked me what happened and I told him. He didn’t tell me it was nothing, instead he told me I’d be ok. I laid in bed that night beside him and my mom for a few hours. Finally my dad woke me and told me to try to go back in my room. So I did, I walked in climbed in bed and left my door open hoping for comfort. As soon as I’m settled, it starts again this time he’s coming towards me. I scream for my mom as I’m backed up against my head board. She runs in and turns the light on again. He’s gone. I could feel the disconnect of fear leave my body. Mom turned the light off and slept in my bed beside me that night. It took me what felt like hours to fall asleep. The activity stopped, at least for that night. The next day dad talked to me about what had happened. I learned how he’s a seventh son, which is believed to have the ability to communicate with the dead. He explained that ghost are real. It was at that time that, he told me that anytime I felt uneasy to say ‘I command you to leave this space, in the name of Jesus Christ’. After our talk I started feeling a bit more relaxed. I lived there for eight years. In those eight years the activity went on and off. By the age of thirteen I’ve experienced enough that I started asking my dad to tell me his experiences. I’d listen to him for hours, and didn’t mind hearing them more than once. We started watching ‘TAPS’ together. I remember being woken up late one night on a school night to watch the episode where they investigated Waverly Hills Sanatorium. My interest for the paranormal was growing. I didn’t fear it as much as I did my first experience. I started understanding more from every bit activity that happened to me.

The Grave of a Red Woman
It was raining that day. The streets were empty and creating an ambient of dead silence. A man walked out of a door. A briefcase in hand. Wearing a long coat and a hat. The man started to walk and his footsteps can be heard from yards away. This man is Dr. Polaris. He was a renowned scientific researcher and he was working on the brains of dead people. Because he believes that even after people died, their souls remain attached to their brains. And this could be the pathway to communicate with them.
