Sensing a Presence
Rate this encounter:
Stefan, Las Cruces, New Mexico, December 1999
I went to my then girlfriend's dad's house for Christmas. I slept on
the couch in the living room and the first night I was sleeping I woke
when I felt my arm being moved and placed upon my chest. Then I felt a
strong push on my chest. I initially thought it was my girlfriend paying
me a visit, but nobody was there. I then had a very strong sense of
somebody watching me and I smelled a very strong odor of wet earth. I
turned over to face the couch and pulled the covers over my head because
I didn't feel comfortable. The funny thing is I was in the Army at the
time and had been through some real "scary" times. For some reason I
felt really uncomfortable and hid under the sheets. After about five
minutes I got my composer back and ran straight to my girlfriend's room
and slept the rest of the night on the floor. The next day I explained
what happened to her and her sister who lives at the house. They both
got real quiet. Her sister then told me what she has experienced. A baby
gate that separates the kitchen from the living room would move or open
up. Toys and the TV would come on at all hours of the day. Toys would
move. They would walk by and think they would see somebody in the room.
Come to find out, their mother stayed in the room when she had cancer
and died on the couch.
