When I was about 11 years old I had occuring encounters with a ghost in my house. One night a few years ago I was laying on the top bed of my bunk bed, my mattress was too small so part of the board underneith my mattress stuck out. Well I was laying there and was almost asleep and I heard foot steps in my room. I thought it was my dad comming in to get something so I didn't open my eyes to see who it was. The foot steps came closer to my bed and then stopped. I thought it was kind of weird so I just said "Good night Dad." But he said nothing. So I just rolled over on to my other side and tried to sleep. A few seconds later I heard some one tapping on the board under my mattress. I thought that was realy creepy so I looked over and there was no one there. But the tapping continued.I jumped off my bed and told my parents about what had just happened.

This kept happening for a few days so I just started to sleep in my mom's room. I finaly got the courage to sleep in my room again and that night I heard the foot steps again but this time they were much faster, almost running and the tapping got much louder too. I once again got out of bed and told my parents what had happened again. The next day my mom called one of her friends who can talk to ghosts (I forget what they are called) She told me that I have the phycic abillity to talk to ghosts also and that the ghosts were comming to me because they thought I could help them leave earth. She told them that I could not help them and since then they have not bothered me anymore.
