I will start off by saying that the Holy Bible mentions Ghosts many times in scripture. The Old Testament just a few times. The New Testament over 90 times. Just what the Ghosts mentioned in the Holy Bible means I don't know but its surely open for discussion if people want to do so.
I was visiting with my Mom up in Johnston County NC where I was born and raised. My Nieces were there my Sister their Mom was off on one of her business trips so my Mom was keeping the girls until my Sister came back from her trip. We were all sitting in the den talking when somehow the subject of Ghosts came up I don't remember just how the conversation came to be. One of my Nieces spoke up and said, Uncle Wayne there is something in your old room and we don't play in there anymore. My Mom chimed in and said, well you girls have told me about this before and I don't know what's wrong with you two. I ain't never seen nothing strange in Uncle Wayne's old room.
Both girls turned to me and said, we have tried to tell Grandma that there really is something strange living in your old room but she doesn't believe us. We never go into you old room anymore there is some kind of Ghost or spirit that has taken up residence in there. Both of us are scared to even go into you old room anymore. I knew that the girls were sincere and I told them well whatever it is its not going to harm anyone we are upsetting your Grandma so lets just talk about something else. I told them I did believe what they told me though and by me saying that it gave the girls a bit of satisfaction that someone believed them about what they encountered in my old room.
I have believed in Ghosts for a very long time in my life some may call me foolish or whatever but that's okay. I have learned over the years that I am not the only one who believes in Ghosts and several people have told me about their encounters with a Ghost, spirit or whatever it was they came into contact with over the years.
Now, I was staying with my Mom maybe a year or so before she died helping to take care of her while my Sister was away on business. While visiting my Mom I always slept in my old room in her house that I spent my teen years in. We built the house my Stepdad and I in 1960-61. I started high school in '61 that's when we moved into our new house out in the country near Micro NC.
I was sleeping in my old room it was about 1am in the morning when I awoke to a bright red light over my closet door up next to the ceiling. Then suddenly there were two red lights kinda like glowing eyes in the dark. Then the red glowing objects started to move to the right and stopped when they got into the corner of my room, still up close to the ceiling. For just a few moments I lay there in my bed looking at the lights and wondering what they were. I reasoned well whatever it is I can't do anything about it so I turned over and went back to sleep the glowing red lights didn't scare me at all. The next morning I didn't mention what I saw to my Mom.
About a month later I was back visiting with my Mom again and sleeping in my old bedroom when I woke up and over my closet door was a red glowing light and a white glowing light side by side. I said to myself, oh back again huh? Then just like the lights did before they moved over to the corner of my bedroom again up next to the ceiling and just hovered there. And again I watched the lights to see if they were going to move again, they did not so I turned over on my left side away from the lights and went back to sleep. I just figured the lights were harmless and again I wasn't afraid of them, just curious.
Two weeks later I was back at my Mom's house again sleeping in my old room. I was sleeping on my right side facing my bedroom door I kept it open because sometimes at night my Mom would wake up feeling badly brought on by her diabetes. She would get up and call me telling me that she needed help. I would help her into the den and get her some orange juice to drink then help her back to her bedroom when she got to feeling okay again and she would go back to sleep.
Okay, like I said I was sleeping in my old bed on my right side facing the door when suddenly I woke up for whatever reason. Usually when I wake up at night it means its time for me to go to the bathroom. But not this night, when I woke up there was a woman standing beside my bed. She had long flowing hair and a long dress on like my Grandmother used to wear long years ago. I could not clearly see the woman's face her image looked to be a very light misty green and semi-transparent. Again I wasn't scared by what I saw I stared at the image beside me for a moment or two than I reached out my left hand to touch whatever it was. As soon as I extended my hand towards the image she disappeared, gone leaving me to wonder what had I seen.
I do not know what I saw but I saw it and I wasn't dreaming I was wide awake during all three of the encounters that I experienced in my Mom's house now years ago. I told my Sister about what I saw three times while visiting with my Mother but I never mentioned the encounters to my Mother. My Sister told me you saw what my girls have seen in your old bedroom. She also asked, do you think the Ghost was Grandma, my sister was referring to my Mom's Mother, she lived with us several years before she died.
I went on to tell my Sister that I didn't know if the Ghost was Grandma or not I could not plainly see her face but she was small in statue and her hair and her dress and her size sure was a good image of our now long dead Grandmother. Who knows what I saw those three times, I surely do not. My Nieces know what I saw but not what it was they had seen the same thing years before I saw it. We never told my Mom about my encounters with the unknown, she would have said, well now you have all gone crazy.
I do know that strange things happen in this world that I certainly cannot explain. I really have no idea if anyone can.
