Is it just me or do black dogs and ghosts and scary stuff like me? I am only 11 and have had at least 10 things scary happen to me. I think I will tell some of them that I have not mentioned yet, but first I will tell you the most updated(3/8/02) story that includes the black dog.

It happened outside with the same people that had played the Quija board with me when all this started happening.(it was me, my friend Cara, and my cousin Jake) We were all outside and it was about 6:00 but it was not really dark yet because it is getting closer to summer, but the sky was turning a little darker, but not much. We kept hearing this dog bark and it sounded pretty far away so we did not pay much attention. We were kind of getting scared because we were telling scary stuff that were just town stories and all of the sudden Cara say"is it just me or does the barking seem closer,? "I said yeah kinda but its proubly nothing.

Then my cousin gets this wierd worried look on his face, Cara sees it first and she asks Jake whats wrong and he says Becky (my nickname) did that dog look lika a all black german sheperd or chow, with red eyes and I said yeah pretty much. And then he says well I just say it. I say yeah right because I thought he was playing. (Another thing that was really freaky was that on a movie called "Bones" had a dog that looked almost exactly like it but a little different)

But when I turn around I hear something growling and I scream because it scared me and I look down at the ground a few feet away from me and there are dog foot prints in the groung. I do not know how that happened because the ground was hard and dry.

Nothing has happened since ,but me and my mom's cousin (who is a witch into wicca, not a black witch or bad witch, whichever you pick, and I'm not playing she is really into that stuff and now I kind of am) came up with a explanation.

This is it: Everyone has a spirit guide and when you are scared of them they get red eyes, but when we looked up more it said that red eyes was a warning and then I asked why would it be growling at me and she said to get your attention do you think that if it is sitting there looking at you do you think you would pay much attention to it, if you dont see it.

I laughed. But then again in the woods if that was it why did it do that to us. And shortly after the first time I see the dog I have to get stitches in my foot and my mom's hip disk starts messing up and now she cannot work or anything and my mom's cousin (the witch) dad dies and her sons german girlfriend comes down who is not nice all the way around and she is annoying and takes things wich are not hers without asking and so on, and then her husband loses his job. And then my aunt get fired and she cant find a job and her husband cant work to good because he is disabled in a way and he is supposed to get a settlement and get money and stuff and the Twin Trade towers get crashed into and he cant get it until a year or so. Then my mom's counsin (the witch) comes down to take care of my mom while I'm at school because she just got surgerey The car breaks down. When she gets here she sees a pink rug with roses hanging over the porch railing. If anyone knows what a pink rug with roses in the middle means please e-mail me.
