WORLD OF HORROR STORIES

Attached Spirit

I should start out by explaining that I have what my father calls the Sight. It's something that runs in the Scottish side of my family. My grandmother had it and, if she were still with me today, I would probably be able to explain it better. What it basically means is that I can perceive and sense certainly things that others cannot. I've often thought about it but rarely have picked up on anything major, until the beginning of this year.

I had begun to feel a presence. For the most part it was a happy presence but it (I'm going to call it a he) had off days. One particular week I felt so entirely depressed for no reason and I am a very happy person, I am convinced that it was he who was feeling this. Last night I had a dream, that was more vivid than anything I had felt in quite some time. I saw a face and from what I can recall he had dark, curly hair. In the dream he kissed me. I was alarmed because I almost never have dreams like that. I woke up shortly after and I still had the feeling.

Since then I have been hyper aware and his presence had been popping in and out. I am not so much concerned as I am curious, mainly because he seems harmless, just lonely I would assume. I believe that he is an attached spirit and has attached himself to me. I get the sense that he has been around as a spirit for quite some time. I also sense a familiar aspect about him, as if I knew him in a past life.
