Ghostly
Whisper
(NOTE:
This story took place around 1980...)
My family and I lived in a house in Dallas Texas,
on 814 Elsbeth. It was
said there were 4 deaths in this two storey house, the owner told us of this.
One of them was a young woman in her 20's in the 1900's, she was said to have
been seen in the backyard walking around.....my mother claimed she did at
one time
see
a glow of light coming out of nowhere. One night my girlfriend and I
were playing with the Oujia,
and
as kids do, we asked if there were any spirits in the
house.
Nothing happened at first so we went on to ask silly things. All of a
sudden the Oujia began to have a mind of it's own and spelled out:
"I am a boy
and I died of phenomena here,"
Well
, we were freaking and we stopped and never
played again.
Another incident which made me a believer was when my boyfriend
and I were kissing.
It was
about 1am. I got up to get some water
as
it was in August and very hot. I walked through the big house into the
kitchen and got the bottle of water,
then
walked into the other bedroom which led to
the doorway...suddenly I heard a whisper in my ear saying "I saw you
,
"
I laughed and turned immediately and said "Oh Danny
,"
(my boyfriend
)
...
but
when I turned there was no one behind me and it was dark
...I knew it could
not have been him
because
I would have seen him walking away or running in the
second I turned.
Well
needless to say chills ran up my back and I was numb; I
couldn't move.
I screamed for my boyfriend... and he came running.
He said
,
"What's
wrong!" I said,
"Someone spoke to me!! It was not here but it spoke to me!!!!" He
just held me and said "Calm down
- you know
this house has a history."
In this
house I experienced out of body travels and also noticed my senses were open to
more of the supernatural. I always sensed someone watching me...yet did not
fear them. My mom was into the paranormal and had no problem living with them,
so I too was not afraid.
The thing is, none of us dared to go upstairs alone
even in the day, for the upstairs was the worst; it seemed to generate bad
vibes.
As for the whisper, I never had another incident like it. But I always
sensed them. The house is a two storey
with two apts. upstairs. No one
but us had
ever
lived in the house.
It has been 22 years
since I have been to
the
Dallas
house. It is still there.
I miss it dearly. There are some other
incidents but it would take awhile to talk about them. Such as hearing a baby
cry upstairs...where no one lived. New owners tore down the trees and painted
the house green...I wonder if the ghosts visit them?
