My childhood home was full of ghosts. This particular experience happened when I was 17 years old. It was late at nite, the lights were out and I was in bed when my bedroom door opened. I could see the silouette of a tall slender woman with long whispy hair. She gracefully made her way towards me in my bed. My room was about 25 feet from the door to where my bed was. No time at all was I afraid when she made her way into the room. She finally made it to my bed where she proceeded to tuck me in. There were no features on the face that I could recall. I remember smiling and feeling totally relaxed. She then made her way out of the room as gracefully as she entered. I then rolled over and went to sleep. I didn't remember the experience until the next day at school. It was during a boring lecture that I drew a picture of the womans silouette in my bedroom doorway that it all came back to me and thats when I remember being afraid. I never saw that particular ghost again.
