My first encounter began when I was six years old living in Shelby,Mississippi during the 1970's. After playing outside, I ran in the house to grab a toy out of my room, but being in a rush, I accidentally ran into my parents' room instead.

Once I realized where I was, I turned to leave, but was paralyzed dead in my tracks. Directly above me was a pitch black, small creature-like thing with blood red eyes.The thing also had wings which is why after all these years I have referred to it as an black angel. It just hovered in front of me glaring with the most evil look in its' eyes. I can recall trying to scream for my mom and dad to come and get me, but not a sound could escape my mouth, nor could I move a muscle.

The second encounter in that house before we moved in 1980, was something unknown was choking my mother one day as she was cleaning my bedroom that I shared with my younger sister. My dad was at work at the time, and it was broad daylight. My older brother Greg, myself, and sister, watched in horror as my mother was trying to remove an invisible something from around her neck.

My brother ran next door and got our neighbor Reverend Allen, who then called my mom's pastor and church members to come over to the house and pray. Out of nowhere I saw the most hideous thing I ever saw. I proceeded to try and tell everyone that a gray muscle man was choking my mom, and that he was very tall. No on would listen to me!!!

It seemed as though they prayed for an eternity when all of a sudden all of the glass of my bedroom window broke with a sound like a car crashing into something. It was then that I noticed that my mom was no longer choking. To this day I do not know what went on in that house, but we moved to California in 1980. The house we moved into once in California is a tale all in its' own. I'll post it soon!
