spooky tales
i admit i am a scaredy cat. but at the same time, i am also very gian to hear ghost stories, to watch horror movies, to explore creepy places.not that i've watched, heard or explored many but i do have my fair share of experiences to believe that ghosts and spirits do exist.
1. Double Decked Bed
When i was younger, my two sisters and i used to share a double decked bed. I will sleep on the highest level with my head back facing the toilet door. It was believed that we cannot sleep with our feet facing the door, thus i slept in the other direction instead. One night, I was getting ready to sleep.. it was about 10pm+, the lights were off and i was dozing off. My hands are behind my head in the relaxed position, when i felt someone tapping my arms....like waking me up. My mom likes to do that to wake me up in the mornings..so thinking that it was my mom, i woke up and sat up. I looked behind me and there was no one! My sisters were all sleeping soundly and all i can see was my own reflection looking back at me (the toilet door is also a full length mirror)....i can remember this incident very clearly because i was very sure that it happened as i was not fully asleep yet and i was very irritated when i felt the fingers tapping on my arms so i waited for sometime while the tapping continued before i sat up!
2. The Recorder
During my school days, i have a unique way of revising school work. I like to read out my lectures and record it, then i will listen to it repeatedly, this really helps me to remember it better. I tried this method for about a year before something happened and i stopped doing it. I remembered it was late one night at about 12am+, my family was already sleeping. I like to revise my schoolwork at night as it was quieter and there were lesser distractions. So as usual, i recited my lectures and recorded them... and after that i re-played the recordings.. nothing unusual..until i heard a girl's voice singing softly. It really made my hair stand, I swear my house was in dead silence when i was recording and no way could there be any singing. I was so freaked out that i went to bed immediately.
3. I Have Been Looking For You
I dream all the time but I don't remember the details most of the time. But there was 1 particular dream that I can remember the details very clearly after i woke up. It happened in my JC days. I dreamt of a lady in red who will wait for me outside my lift each day i go home. I stay on the 13th floor, the lift will stop at the 12th floor. She will follow me home each time..along the corridor and up the stairs, but she says she cannot go into my house because there is a prayer hall inside. Instead, she will watch me outside my windows (ok! this is really very scary because no one can be outside my windows as its nt a corridor, just a platform). She looks very scary and I was really spooked for the many weeks that followed. I dun dare to look out of the windows. I can also remember her telling me that she had looked for me for many years and she had finally found me. The strange thing is, i cannot remember if I answered her back, but i only dreamt of her once. It was a scary dream and i hope i will never dream of her again.
to be continued..
