The first night was terrible, I couldn't get to sleep. I remember when I shut my eyes just laying there with my eyes closed, wide awake for a full on hour!!! It was around 2pm I was just chilling in my room not doing anything until I heard something terrific down stairs, I wasn't sure what it was though , so I got up and went down stairs, first through the corridors then to the living room, I heard something that sounded like screaming and someone getting murdered. I couldn't believe my eyes! There was a puddle of blood in the living room leading to the kitchen so I followed it with strong butterflies in my stomach and my heart beating very fast, I Nearly fainted until..... I saw ... a ghost. A ghost murdering my family. First of all, I did NOT and do NOT like ghosts and I was 10000% sure it was a ghost NOT a spirit. Second of all it was murdering my family!!!! Then, it suddenly disappeared but my dad and sister was laying down dead filled with blood allover!! I didn't know what to do, didn't know what was going to happen next and I was just stood there crying...until something grabbed my leg...and dragged me!! For a few seconds I was just laying there like my sister and dad but then....the ghost came at me......


Then, I woke up in my bed panacking nearly having a heart attack. But I was relieved that it was just. A. Nightmare. Right? In the corner of my room I saw something, I tried to focus my eyes on it and I saw it. The exact same thing... Staring at me. I froze. Just staring back it, it wasn't doing anything, just standing there and staring. I slowly lowered my back on my bed and shut my eyes... Finally i fell asleep.
