<v Speaker 1>The following episode has mentions of self harm and sexual assault.
<v Speaker 1>If this may be triggering for you, please take care
<v Speaker 1>of While listening.
<v Speaker 2>Something knocks on my door, walks in, and it drags
<v Speaker 2>its feet across my poor It sits on my bed
<v Speaker 2>and it looks at me with it's like a really
<v Speaker 2>dark red eyes, and it says I'm bad.
<v Speaker 1>A young woman from Mississippi has lived with a paranormal
<v Speaker 1>since childhood, from shadow figures in the mirror, in violent sleep, paralysis,
<v Speaker 1>to voices and bruises that can't be explained. My name
<v Speaker 1>is Edwin and here is Jade. It's true scary story.
<v Speaker 2>My name is Jade. I grew up in a small
<v Speaker 2>town in Mississippi. We lived with my grandma. When I
<v Speaker 2>was a kid, I was really scared of the smallest things,
<v Speaker 2>like I would be scared to be like in a
<v Speaker 2>room by myself, I would see shadows. I just try
<v Speaker 2>to kind of shove them off because I didn't want
<v Speaker 2>to think, oh, that's something more than just a shadow.
<v Speaker 2>I was around six or seven years old, I just
<v Speaker 2>started first grade and I was washing my hands in
<v Speaker 2>the bathroom. I looked in this mirror and there was
<v Speaker 2>this like giant figure behind me. It looked like it
<v Speaker 2>was kind of furry. It had these dark red eyes
<v Speaker 2>and was staring right at me. I had gotten really scared,
<v Speaker 2>and so I didn't say anything, and I didn't move
<v Speaker 2>for five or six seconds. I just kind of stood there,
<v Speaker 2>and it grabs my arm and it scratches my arm.
<v Speaker 2>I go to my grandma and I tell her about this,
<v Speaker 2>so she saw the scratches and everything, and we got
<v Speaker 2>our preacher to come to our house and kind of
<v Speaker 2>bless the house. I would hear footsteps and other things
<v Speaker 2>like moving around like deer in the night or during
<v Speaker 2>the day, especially if I was home alone. We had
<v Speaker 2>a computer room in one of the back rooms. I
<v Speaker 2>was in there and I was watching YouTube. I heard
<v Speaker 2>someone walking back and forth down the hallway. So I
<v Speaker 2>walk out and as I open the door, I can
<v Speaker 2>hear it walking and then it stops. So I close
<v Speaker 2>the door and it happens again. I don't know what
<v Speaker 2>to do at this point, like I just hear someone
<v Speaker 2>walking back and forth in the hallway, but I can't
<v Speaker 2>see anybody. I opened the door and I just leave
<v Speaker 2>it open, and whenever I sit down, it starts again.
<v Speaker 2>I just sat at the door so it would stop walking.
<v Speaker 2>I was at my dad's house because my parents were divorced.
<v Speaker 2>I had my own rim. I was laying in my
<v Speaker 2>bed and it was kind of late at night. It
<v Speaker 2>was around like eleven thirty. I was gonna lay down
<v Speaker 2>and go to sleep, and I hear knives scraping in
<v Speaker 2>the kitchen. My first thought, I was like, oh my God,
<v Speaker 2>like somebody just broke into the ouse. I grabbed this
<v Speaker 2>baseball bat that I had in my room because I
<v Speaker 2>thought there was somebody there. I walk out and there's
<v Speaker 2>nothing in the kitchen. There's no knives laying out. There's
<v Speaker 2>no one in the kitchen. So I go in my
<v Speaker 2>room and the door and I can still hear them
<v Speaker 2>like scraping the knives. I felt really uneasy about it,
<v Speaker 2>and I was like, Okay, there's nobody in the house.
<v Speaker 2>All the doors are locked, and I was like, this
<v Speaker 2>is really weird. I tried to go to sleep the
<v Speaker 2>best I could, and I put my headphones in. I
<v Speaker 2>was listening to music and I just went to sleep.
<v Speaker 2>I guess I didn't want to just deal with it,
<v Speaker 2>whatever it was. Whenever I was thirteen, I moved in
<v Speaker 2>with my dad I had started to have like sleep proalysis,
<v Speaker 2>and I didn't know what this was at first. I'd
<v Speaker 2>never had anything like it in my entire life. The
<v Speaker 2>first one that I had, I had this horrible dream
<v Speaker 2>and whenever I want to go wake up, because whenever
<v Speaker 2>you have sleep paralysis, you can't like fully wake up.
<v Speaker 2>So my eyes were just kind of like open a
<v Speaker 2>little bit and I was able to move my head
<v Speaker 2>back and forth. Whenever that happened, I felt like this
<v Speaker 2>pressure come over like my entire body and like something
<v Speaker 2>had pulled my legs apart, and my head it felt
<v Speaker 2>like it was on fire. I was very scared this moment,
<v Speaker 2>so I just said I belong to God, like you
<v Speaker 2>have to leave me alone, and it stopped right then.
<v Speaker 2>The next morning, a couple hours later, I called my
<v Speaker 2>grandma and I was like, hey, like this just happened,
<v Speaker 2>and I don't know like what it is or anything.
<v Speaker 2>She told me that when I was a kid, it
<v Speaker 2>was around whenever I was about eight years old, she
<v Speaker 2>woke up and there was a stick figger standing at
<v Speaker 2>the end of her bed. She's like a wholehearted Christian,
<v Speaker 2>Like this is the most Christian woman I've ever met,
<v Speaker 2>and she's an amazing person. She was not scared at all.
<v Speaker 2>She got up, she pointed at it, and she said,
<v Speaker 2>you have to leave. I belong to God. You cannot
<v Speaker 2>do anything to me. And she said that it left.
<v Speaker 2>She felt like something was kind of off. So she
<v Speaker 2>had walked to my room and she said, I was
<v Speaker 2>standing up by the closet and it was standing right
<v Speaker 2>next to me, and it had its hand kind of
<v Speaker 2>on my back, and so she told it again that
<v Speaker 2>you have to leave. You cannot be in this house.
<v Speaker 2>You are not allowed here. So it finally left, and
<v Speaker 2>she said, I just walked over to my bed and
<v Speaker 2>I laid back down and I went back to bed.
<v Speaker 2>I had no idea that this was going on at all.
<v Speaker 2>I had no idea that this happened. She told me
<v Speaker 2>the reason why she didn't tell me was because she
<v Speaker 2>did not want me to get scared. And she told
<v Speaker 2>me just to pray and that if anything was to happen,
<v Speaker 2>to say that I belong to God and that it
<v Speaker 2>has to leave me alone. I was also told that
<v Speaker 2>my aunt's husband, he's originally from Mexico and his aunt
<v Speaker 2>was a witch. This was around the same time that
<v Speaker 2>my grandma had seen that figure. He had went there.
<v Speaker 2>He had walked by her house, didn't go in it,
<v Speaker 2>just walked by her house whenever he came home. My
<v Speaker 2>cousin she was about three years old, and she was
<v Speaker 2>sleeping in her crib in their ring. My grandma told
<v Speaker 2>me that when my aunt my uncle woke up, something
<v Speaker 2>was holding like their arms around their chest and was
<v Speaker 2>putting pressure on their chests and would not let them
<v Speaker 2>move or anything. By the time it stopped, they went
<v Speaker 2>to go check on my cousin and she was fine.
<v Speaker 2>They felt like something came back with him because she
<v Speaker 2>would like do spells and everything, and she would put
<v Speaker 2>kind of I guess spells on people like she didn't like,
<v Speaker 2>and she wanted bad things to happen to like. She
<v Speaker 2>definitely focused more on black magic. And what he told
<v Speaker 2>me is that she completely gave her soul to the
<v Speaker 2>devil and that's the reason why none of the family
<v Speaker 2>had anything to do with her because of what all
<v Speaker 2>she was doing. No sleep process happened again until I
<v Speaker 2>was fifteen. I went on vacation to Texas to see
<v Speaker 2>my aunt. We had taken my other aunt and my mama,
<v Speaker 2>my dad and my stepmam. We had went to my
<v Speaker 2>aunt's boyfriend's dad's house. He wasn't there. He was at
<v Speaker 2>some press court friends for the business that he owned.
<v Speaker 2>It was a really nice house. Me and my other
<v Speaker 2>aunt had ended up saying with my aunt at this house,
<v Speaker 2>and we slept in my aunt's boyfriend's dad bedroom because
<v Speaker 2>he wasn't there and it was a really nice bedroom.
<v Speaker 2>I was really tired that guy, and so I just
<v Speaker 2>went to bed. I had this dream where I was
<v Speaker 2>standing in front of this mirror and I shot myself.
<v Speaker 2>Whenever I want to go wake up, my head felt
<v Speaker 2>like it was on fire. I could kind of see
<v Speaker 2>a shadow's face. I guess you wouldn't see it like
<v Speaker 2>the face, but it was a circle face like kind
<v Speaker 2>of next to my face. And I was trying to
<v Speaker 2>grab my aunt's arm so she could help me. She
<v Speaker 2>didn't wake up. I fell back asleep, and the same
<v Speaker 2>thing happened again, and the exact same way. At the
<v Speaker 2>first time, I was like, Okay, I'm not gonna let
<v Speaker 2>this get to me, like I'm just gonna go to sleep.
<v Speaker 2>So I fell asleep at the third time, and whenever
<v Speaker 2>it happened the third time, whenever I said I belonged
<v Speaker 2>to God. It felt like there was a ringing in
<v Speaker 2>my head. My head felt like it was on fire,
<v Speaker 2>and it was just getting worse. Finally woke up all
<v Speaker 2>the way and I sat up and there was this
<v Speaker 2>figure of this lady like standing in the closet. It
<v Speaker 2>really freaked me out. I was like, Okay, I'm not
<v Speaker 2>gonna pay any attention to it. Maybe if I just
<v Speaker 2>ignore it, it will leave me alone and it will
<v Speaker 2>finally let me sleep. So I rolled over and I'm
<v Speaker 2>like facing away from it, and I go to sleep.
<v Speaker 2>The next day, I told my aunt about it and
<v Speaker 2>she said, yeah, that's where her boyfriend's dad's wife had
<v Speaker 2>shot herself in that room. Well, that's really weird because
<v Speaker 2>the dream I had beforehand, I was standing in the
<v Speaker 2>mirror and I shot myself. She said where are you on,
<v Speaker 2>like the far end of the room, right next to
<v Speaker 2>the bathroom, and I was like, well yeah, and she
<v Speaker 2>said that's where she shot herself. She also told me
<v Speaker 2>that they would be upstairs, and this was hard. With
<v Speaker 2>the floor, they would hear her walking downstairs. She told
<v Speaker 2>me the reason why maybe this was happening to me
<v Speaker 2>was because I was so young and I had such
<v Speaker 2>an open mind, and it was her trying to tell
<v Speaker 2>me how she died, and I told my aunt, I
<v Speaker 2>don't want anything to do with it, like this takes
<v Speaker 2>a total on my body, Like it doesn't just hurt
<v Speaker 2>my sleep, but it makes me feel so like dreary,
<v Speaker 2>like just so tired and like mentally drained. And she
<v Speaker 2>was like, I get that. It'll leave you alone when
<v Speaker 2>I promise, I was like, okay. So anytime I had
<v Speaker 2>walked into that room, I felt very uneasy, especially after
<v Speaker 2>hearing the story. And I don't know if I felt
<v Speaker 2>uneasy because of what happened the night before or because
<v Speaker 2>of what I found out that happened in that room.
<v Speaker 2>I was standing in the bathroom and I was blow
<v Speaker 2>drying my hair and I just felt like someone was
<v Speaker 2>standing like right behind me. I couldn't take that feeling anymore.
<v Speaker 2>So I got myself and I had went to the
<v Speaker 2>other bathroom in the house and I finished get ready,
<v Speaker 2>and I was so happy when we left because I
<v Speaker 2>just felt so scared in that room and in that house,
<v Speaker 2>because I constantly felt like there was someone standing right
<v Speaker 2>next to me. And as soon as we left, it
<v Speaker 2>felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulders, like
<v Speaker 2>there was no one that was following me around or
<v Speaker 2>sitting behind me or seeing what exactly I'm doing. We
<v Speaker 2>left by Tennessee and we had moved further into this
<v Speaker 2>like small town. It's like an old house. There's like
<v Speaker 2>a well outside, there's a brick oven outside to like
<v Speaker 2>it's an old house, but it's beautiful. I really liked
<v Speaker 2>my room. I had a balcony that went outside, and
<v Speaker 2>I would still kind of hear things, but I would
<v Speaker 2>just ignore it. I was like, if I don't feed
<v Speaker 2>into it, it's not gonna do anything. I was seventeen.
<v Speaker 2>I was talking to this guy and we were supposed
<v Speaker 2>to go to the zoo the next day, and he
<v Speaker 2>canceled on me, and I was really upset about it,
<v Speaker 2>and I had stayed up kind of crying a little bit,
<v Speaker 2>and I had a guitar kind of sitting in the
<v Speaker 2>corner of my room by my closet. All the strings
<v Speaker 2>on the guitar just went off. I took the guitar
<v Speaker 2>and I had put it in my closet because I
<v Speaker 2>was like, I don't want it to go off for
<v Speaker 2>the rest of the nights. So I go to sleep
<v Speaker 2>I wake up and my guitar is back in the
<v Speaker 2>corner of my room and there's a shadow standing next
<v Speaker 2>to it. So I tell it, I'm like, please leave
<v Speaker 2>me alone, like I don't want anything to do with this.
<v Speaker 2>I belonged to God. You have to leave me alone.
<v Speaker 2>And it left. So I was fully convinced, Okay, this
<v Speaker 2>is the end of it. It's all gonna leave me alone.
<v Speaker 2>I'm not gonna have any sleep prosis, like none of
<v Speaker 2>this is gonna happen. It stopped for a good year.
<v Speaker 2>Whenever I was sixteen, I had my first and only
<v Speaker 2>wreck so far. I thought I was dead. There was
<v Speaker 2>so much blood everywhere. Whenever I was upside down in
<v Speaker 2>a ditch, I unboke with my seatbelt and I looked
<v Speaker 2>over and I could kind of see like a light
<v Speaker 2>of someone they put their hand out on me, is
<v Speaker 2>what it felt like. Which I hit my head a
<v Speaker 2>blunch during this wreck, so it could have been that,
<v Speaker 2>and I could have just been like imagining it. That's
<v Speaker 2>why I never took it into full perspective. Because I
<v Speaker 2>had like a major concussion and I had had some
<v Speaker 2>like brain bleeds, and so they had to go in
<v Speaker 2>and they had to work on everything, and so I
<v Speaker 2>never like actually put that as like that was an
<v Speaker 2>angel telling me it's gonna be okay. It could have
<v Speaker 2>been anything with how hurt I got in that rec So,
<v Speaker 2>whenever I was eighteen, me and my best friend got
<v Speaker 2>an apartment in the town that we're going to go
<v Speaker 2>to college too. About three months into living into this apartment,
<v Speaker 2>I had the worst sleep prolysses that I had ever
<v Speaker 2>had in my entire life. I had a dream beforehand
<v Speaker 2>there was a group of people and I was doing
<v Speaker 2>like these really horrible things to them. There was like
<v Speaker 2>a bunch of murder, there was rape, and there was
<v Speaker 2>like kids in fog and I couldn't control myself in
<v Speaker 2>the stream, but I know it was horrible. It was
<v Speaker 2>a really bad dream, and whenever I went to go
<v Speaker 2>wake up, I felt like very cloggy, like it was
<v Speaker 2>a sleep prolysis. Again. My door was closed. Something knocked
<v Speaker 2>on my door three times, and I thought it was
<v Speaker 2>my best friend walking into my room. She came and
<v Speaker 2>sat down on my bed and she started violently shaking
<v Speaker 2>me to wake up, and I couldn't wake up fully.
<v Speaker 2>I could kind of see like a figure of something
<v Speaker 2>at this point, it wasn't necessarily like a shadow. It
<v Speaker 2>had more like dimension to it. I could see like
<v Speaker 2>the outlines of the arms. I could see kind of
<v Speaker 2>more of like a jawline. It had gotten its face
<v Speaker 2>right next to mine, and I see like dark almost
<v Speaker 2>black red, and it looked at me, and then it
<v Speaker 2>got in my ear and it said, I'll be back.
<v Speaker 2>I have to go check on you know who. I
<v Speaker 2>fully woke up and I texted my friends and I
<v Speaker 2>was like, Hey, what are you talking about? You have
<v Speaker 2>to go check on you know who? And she was like,
<v Speaker 2>what are you talking about? Like I've been at work
<v Speaker 2>for two hours, and I was like, you just came
<v Speaker 2>into my room, sat on my bed, shook me to
<v Speaker 2>wake up, and told me that you had to go
<v Speaker 2>check on you know who. And she was like, I
<v Speaker 2>have no idea what you're talking about. She had got
<v Speaker 2>home that night and I was asking about it. I
<v Speaker 2>was like, you're lying to me. You have to be
<v Speaker 2>tell me that you're lying to me. So I don't
<v Speaker 2>think anything weird is going on. She said, I find
<v Speaker 2>that really strange because that not I woke up and
<v Speaker 2>she could hear whispering in her room. She said, as
<v Speaker 2>soon as she turned around, it stopped. So I went
<v Speaker 2>to work the next day and I work in a
<v Speaker 2>still living facility right now. One of my residents, she's
<v Speaker 2>very Catholic, very religious, and I love her to death.
<v Speaker 2>I had walked into her room and she looked at
<v Speaker 2>me and she said, do you have sleep prolesses? And
<v Speaker 2>I don't tell them, you know, really any of my
<v Speaker 2>personal information, especially stuff like that. And I was like,
<v Speaker 2>what are you talking about? She said, there's something following
<v Speaker 2>you and it's not going to let you go. I
<v Speaker 2>was like, no, you know, like I'm okay, I promise,
<v Speaker 2>like everything's fine. She said, no, someone needs to help
<v Speaker 2>you because it's not gonna let you go. Her daughter
<v Speaker 2>had came in. I had went her to go check
<v Speaker 2>on her, and the resident looked at me and she said,
<v Speaker 2>there's something following you. Her daughter was like, Mama, what
<v Speaker 2>are you talking about? You know? And she was like,
<v Speaker 2>there's something following her and it won't let her go.
<v Speaker 2>You have to help her. I didn't know what to do.
<v Speaker 2>I didn't know what to think. And her daughter told
<v Speaker 2>me that her mom was always able to sense things
<v Speaker 2>and see things. She told me that her mom had
<v Speaker 2>seen something following me. And it's She said, it was
<v Speaker 2>holding on to me and it wasn't gonna let me go.
<v Speaker 2>So she gave me just like rosemary cross and some
<v Speaker 2>holy water, and I was like, I promise, like, everything's fine,
<v Speaker 2>It'll go away at some point whenever it realizes I'm
<v Speaker 2>not gonna feed into whatever it wants. She was like,
<v Speaker 2>I would feel more comfortable if you would take this.
<v Speaker 2>I was like, okay, well i'll take it, but I promise,
<v Speaker 2>like I'll be okay. I had put the cross on
<v Speaker 2>my vanity set, which sits in front of my bed.
<v Speaker 2>I would wake up some knots and it would be
<v Speaker 2>kind of swaying back and forth. I was like, I'm
<v Speaker 2>not gonna think anything of it, like my dog may
<v Speaker 2>have bumped the vanity set and it may be moving.
<v Speaker 2>I had gone back to work maybe a month afterwards.
<v Speaker 2>The resident. She didn't say anything to me. The daughter
<v Speaker 2>came in and she said, has your problem gotten better?
<v Speaker 2>And I was like, oh, yeah, like you know, nothing's happened,
<v Speaker 2>you know, Like I said, I'll be fine as soon
<v Speaker 2>as it figured out I wasn't gonna feed into whatever
<v Speaker 2>it was telling me. And she was like, I would
<v Speaker 2>feel better if you would kind of be careful. There
<v Speaker 2>was one time I had went to one of my
<v Speaker 2>friend's house and her mom was not really like a
<v Speaker 2>good person. I saw like it wasn't her shadow because
<v Speaker 2>her shadow was in front of her and the light
<v Speaker 2>was behind her. But I could see like this figure
<v Speaker 2>kind of standing behind her. And I told my friend
<v Speaker 2>about it. She told her mom about it. I don't
<v Speaker 2>know what happened, but her mom completely changed, and by
<v Speaker 2>the time I went back over there, her mom had
<v Speaker 2>quit drinking, she had quit doing drugs, she started going
<v Speaker 2>to church, and this like thing behind her was just gone.
<v Speaker 2>I find it weird that, like, I've had this happen
<v Speaker 2>my entire life, and now it's starting to get like
<v Speaker 2>more physical and it's more of the same thing that's
<v Speaker 2>happening instead of like different things. I had a tree
<v Speaker 2>where I was driving in town. There was this guy
<v Speaker 2>next to me. He was kicking me in the face
<v Speaker 2>as I was driving. I was like, I'm just gonna
<v Speaker 2>run off the road and maybe we'll just botho. I
<v Speaker 2>don't know why I had this mindset. I didn't know
<v Speaker 2>what was really going on, but I had ran off
<v Speaker 2>the road. Whenever I woke up, something was choking me.
<v Speaker 2>I could not breathe at all. I said in my head,
<v Speaker 2>I belong to God. It has to leave. Then I
<v Speaker 2>have the same dream that I had whenever I had
<v Speaker 2>the really horrible sleep prosis where I was hurting other people.
<v Speaker 2>I was like, really freaked out about this. So I
<v Speaker 2>wake up to an extent, like while I'm having sleep prolesses,
<v Speaker 2>something knocks on my door, walks in, and it drags
<v Speaker 2>its feet across my floor. It sits on my bed
<v Speaker 2>and it looks at me with its like really dark
<v Speaker 2>red eyes and it says, I'm back. Whenever I finally
<v Speaker 2>woke up, I just didn't go back to sleep. I
<v Speaker 2>was really scared. And my friend got up and I
<v Speaker 2>asked her. I was like, did you come in my
<v Speaker 2>room and choke me out? Like this is not a
<v Speaker 2>funny joke or whatever you're doing? And she said, what
<v Speaker 2>are you talking about? Like why would I come in
<v Speaker 2>your room and choke you out? That's horrible. No one
<v Speaker 2>has been in your room. It was really worrying me
<v Speaker 2>at this point that this same dream, and I want
<v Speaker 2>to say it was like the same spirit that was
<v Speaker 2>trying to scare me, and it was definitely scaring me
<v Speaker 2>at this point, being Southern Baptist, we don't really talk
<v Speaker 2>about like paranormal and stuff like that. We just kind
<v Speaker 2>of believe that if you just ignore it, it'll go away.
<v Speaker 2>So I looked up some priests online and there was
<v Speaker 2>this Catholic priest and he asked me if I was
<v Speaker 2>ever part of a cult, and I was like WHOA, Like, no,
<v Speaker 2>I have nothing to do with any of that. And
<v Speaker 2>he said, well, it may be a colt that has
<v Speaker 2>a hold of you that won't let you go. He
<v Speaker 2>asked me if I knew any witches. I have no
<v Speaker 2>idea of any colts or any witches. You know, like,
<v Speaker 2>no one of my families really like that. He told
<v Speaker 2>me that I may be like a medium and some
<v Speaker 2>other things like that. He said I could use like
<v Speaker 2>sage and holy water and I could do some prayers
<v Speaker 2>and talk to God more about it and maybe it'll stop.
<v Speaker 2>I told him, I was like, even if I am
<v Speaker 2>a medium, I don't want anything to do with that,
<v Speaker 2>Like I really just want to be left along with it.
<v Speaker 2>I want to just kind of be Okay. I would
<v Speaker 2>sage the house, I would take the holy water, and
<v Speaker 2>I would kind of put it throughout the house. We
<v Speaker 2>had some more crosses put up and I would have
<v Speaker 2>bibles kind of laying out because I was getting really
<v Speaker 2>freaked out at this point and I didn't want something
<v Speaker 2>to be attached to me. All this kind of happened,
<v Speaker 2>and then I had that exact same sleep proalysis again
<v Speaker 2>with the same thing, and it was the same spirits
<v Speaker 2>that had been bothering me for a couple months now.
<v Speaker 2>It did the same thing again, and at this point,
<v Speaker 2>I'm getting really tired of it, and so I tell
<v Speaker 2>my friend about it, and she said that that night
<v Speaker 2>she had a dream where she was debunking the devil,
<v Speaker 2>she was getting rid of the devil, she was casting
<v Speaker 2>them out. Well, I don't know how to do that,
<v Speaker 2>Like with these dreams that I'm having, I can't control
<v Speaker 2>anything at all. And she said, I've never had anything
<v Speaker 2>like that. I've just had a few things that happened
<v Speaker 2>since we moved in together. This was maybe like a
<v Speaker 2>month ago that she had told me about this dream
<v Speaker 2>and all this other stuff, and I was kind of
<v Speaker 2>getting convinced. I was like, Okay, so it's gonna leave
<v Speaker 2>me alone at this point if I just ignore it
<v Speaker 2>and I just pray, I keep reading the Bible and
<v Speaker 2>doing my devotions and kind of trying to cleanse the
<v Speaker 2>house a little bit. Maybe it will finally leave me alone.
<v Speaker 2>Last night, I had stayed up until about twelve, kind
<v Speaker 2>of hanging out with my friends. Whenever I went to sleep,
<v Speaker 2>I had the exact same dream with the sleep proalysis,
<v Speaker 2>and at this point, the last two times that it happened,
<v Speaker 2>it had never actually like hurt me physically. It was
<v Speaker 2>just kind of mentally training me. So whenever I want
<v Speaker 2>to go wake up, something knocked on my thword three
<v Speaker 2>times and rugged their feet into my ram sat on
<v Speaker 2>my bed, and it grabbed my ankles. My ankles felt
<v Speaker 2>like they were burning, like they felt like they were
<v Speaker 2>on fire. I was trying to kick my legs, but
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't move them. In my head, I'm saying I
<v Speaker 2>belong to God, you have to leave me alone. As
<v Speaker 2>soon as I said the word God, my head felt
<v Speaker 2>like it was going to explode, Like it felt like
<v Speaker 2>my head was on fire. It was so bad. I'm
<v Speaker 2>like starting to cry at this point because it's really
<v Speaker 2>hurting me. And so it gets up and it says
<v Speaker 2>I'm leaving, I'll be back. I see it move out
<v Speaker 2>my door and I can get more of like a
<v Speaker 2>detail of it. I'm about five to two and a half,
<v Speaker 2>and I want to say that this thing is maybe
<v Speaker 2>like six foot. It's tall. It doesn't have any hair
<v Speaker 2>or anything. It's not really a person, but it's got
<v Speaker 2>longer fingernails, and it's kind of muscular, and it has
<v Speaker 2>like furry or if it had kind of like what
<v Speaker 2>looked like a burd coat on, and it looked like
<v Speaker 2>it had like tattoos on the back of its like neck.
<v Speaker 2>It looked like it had horns. But I may be
<v Speaker 2>like mistaken that because everything was kind of blurry at
<v Speaker 2>this point too, and so I could just kind of
<v Speaker 2>see something walking out, but I couldn't see like exactly
<v Speaker 2>what it was. Whenever I woke up, I looked at
<v Speaker 2>my ankles and I have these handprints skinnier and longer
<v Speaker 2>like nails burned into my ankles. It kind of hurts,
<v Speaker 2>and it's just very mentally draining, and I don't know
<v Speaker 2>how to get rid of the same. And I don't
<v Speaker 2>know what it is. I do believe it's something supernatural,
<v Speaker 2>especially for like how much it's happened and how long
<v Speaker 2>it's been going on. I just don't know how exactly
<v Speaker 2>I can get it to stop. It doesn't hurt physically
<v Speaker 2>as much as it does mentally, like it's so draining,
<v Speaker 2>it wants to hurt me and wants me to feel
<v Speaker 2>bad about it. I want it to know like it's
<v Speaker 2>not going to completely drag me down and it's not
<v Speaker 2>going to completely break me apart.
