Whispers Will Follow You

Natalie and her family had experiences with strange occurrences in their home. Some of
them, you really enough, involved disembodied whispers. My name is Edwin,
and here is Natalie's true scary story. It was probably two thousand and eight,
two thousand and nine. I was probably around twenty years old. I
was in an old house, in my parents' house. It was in California.
This house, it wasn't really anything like out of the ordinary. It
was in a neighborhood that was like in the suburbs. We couldn't We didn't
think anything of it, like maybe there is a history of it. We
haven't really researched. We didn't really research it. We didn't have a reason
to until these experiences came. I remember specifically, I was in my room
and I was with my sister. We were folding clothes together and it was
pure silence. Nobody was home. It was just her and I and I
remember folding clothes. We were there for a little bit, just talking a
little bit, and then out of nowhere, I just hear someone whisper my
name into my ear, and mind you, we didn't have no music on,
we didn't have anyone else in the house. So that's all I heard
was my name, Natalie. I screamed so loud. My sister saw my
reaction when I jumped up and screamed, and she was like, what's wrong
with you? What happened? And so I told her exactly what I heard
into my ear, and she got so scared. She believed me. She
usually doesn't believe in spirits or anything like that, any ghost related type of
things, but she believed me because of my reaction. So as soon as
we were done folding clothes, or actually we wanted to get our mind off
of it. We didn't want to put any attack tension towards it. We
didn't want to bring any attention to it. We just put on some music
and kept folding clothes. Another day, in this same house, my dad
felt an experience. He was in the kitchen cooking. He was the only
one in the house. So in the there's this hallway that we have in
it has all the rooms, and the farthest room that room. One of
the rooms was my sister's room, her and her husband's, and my dad
had said he heard someone opening and closing yours from a dresser specifically heard that,
and so he didn't think anything of it. He just kept cooking as
he was in the kitchen, and then my brother in law comes inside and
my dad. That's when my dad got scared. He got goosebumps, and
he asked him, weren't you just in the room, in your room?
And my brother in law said, no, I just got home from work.
Why And my dad had explained to him what he heard in his room.
Oh my god, and my dad got chills. He was so scared.
That's like probably the first time he's experienced something. He just got really
scared and he was like, I don't know how else to explain this.
He was just like, I thought, I really thought you were in the
room. And my brother La Lah was like no, like I literally just
got home from work. And my dad was just like, like, at
first he thought it was just one of us back there, but obviously he
was home that day and he was just like distraught. He was like,
oh my gosh, like what could that have been? Like I specifically heard
opening and closing premier dresser drawers back there. Honestly, we never had any
suspicions about this house. We never thought anything. That's why these two experiences
that we had in this house really scared us. So that's why we were
a little bit caught off guard in distraught when these two things happened. Years
later, we moved to we're still in the same small town in California,
and we moved to a different house on Apricott Street. We call it Apricott
House. So in that house, it was another ordinary house. It was
in a calm neighborhood. Nothing different about this neighborhood. We moved into this
house, so we were living there for about two years. Nothing really happened
the first year. So my mom one day was showering in the bathroom that
we had. It was the only bathroom. I don't know if she was
thinking about something, we don't know, but what we heard was a scream.
And what happened was she was showering, she was shampooing her hair and
everything, and she looks up and she clearly sees a face. She couldn't
really distinguish if it was a family member or a friend, anyone that had
passed away in our family or anything. She couldn't distinguish the face, but
she saw that it was clearly a face, a shape of the face.
She screamed so loud that we heard her down the hall in the living room.
So after my mom had seen this face in this shower, we were
questioning her. Of course, this is scary, like why are you seeing
a face out of nowhere in the bloom? And so we asked her a
bunch of questions, why what. We were confused and so we told her,
like what did you see? Whose face was it? And like why
would you see something? We were asking these questions and she was just like,
I don't know. She was like freaked out and she was like,
I don't know. I was like, has there anyone in the family that
you know of that I don't know of that passed away and maybe that's the
face you saw? And she was like, no, I can't think of
anyone that has passed away right now, unless it's a family member that has
passed away a long time ago and they're revisiting or saying they're goodbyes something.
That's all we can think of. So my son was at my sister's house.
This house is a beautiful house. She still lives there till this day.
It's in a beautiful suburb neighborhood. It's a two story house. And
my son was there visiting one day and he was downstairs. I think he
was eating or something in the kitchen, and out of nowhere he hears first
he hears a cough, and he's like what. He was confused because who
was upstairs? And he said it clearly sounded like a guy's cough, like
a guy's voice, and he got like startled with Grandma, do you have
your friend upstairs? And then my moms know why and because I heard someone
cough upstairs. And then I think a little later he hears the guy guy's
voice say his name. So then he really got scared because this same voice
cough whenever that he heard sounded like a guy's voice. So he was like,
are you sure that your friend is not up there? You're just playing
with me. My mom is no, there's no one up there, and
my mom started getting creeped out. This is not only it in this same
house, my sister's house. She has heard multiple things. She always hears
footsteps. She's always hearing if she's in my mom's room, from her room,
she'll hear footsteps in there, and you can clearly hear that it's in
the closet. It's weird because we've lived in different places, and we don't
know if it's a family member that's following us, a spirit that's following us.
So we're like, what's going on with all these different encounters. I
honestly believe that it's just a spirit that is not at peace and is possibly
either attached to us and is following us. But thank god, nothing has
happened lately in the new houses that we live in currently, I'm not scared
of being alone anymore, just because, honestly, in that first house,
that's the only house that I felt really scared because I felt the presence of
When I felt that dark presence, I can feel that there's evil in the
house. I feel that there's something not right in the moment that you're in
the in the house. For more creepy content, check out Scary Story podcast
