Raymona, Arlington, Texas, October 1997
One night while I was lying in my bed in Cedar Point Apartments when I felt
something sit at the end of it on the corner where my feet were. I looked,
but nothing was there except a mark like someone had just sat there. I was
freaked out, so I tried to get up to go to the bathroom, but I couldn't move
my upper body. I could move my head and could move from the waist below, but
that's it. It felt as if something was sitting on my chest. My boyfriend at
the time was asleep next to me so I started hitting him to wake up and help
me, but he was out. I started crying because I knew something was there.
When I relaxed, I felt the pressure lift suddenly so I got up fast and saw a
little man run into the closet. I saw nothing until that point. I went to
the bathroom and washed my face and went back to sleep.
The next night I lied down, but stayed up listening for anything. Again, it
felt like something sat at the end of the bed and there again was another
spot like someone was sitting there. I said out loud for whoever it was to
please not sit on my chest or do whatever it did. It didn't. I went to sleep
and then woke up in the middle of the night and was curious so I looked in
the closet and I saw a short man in an army jacket, army hat, and a dark
mustache. I had told people about it because at that point I knew something
was there. My boyfriend's father said he would hear the toilet flush all
night and when he would get up to see why, he wouldn't hear anything. I
convinced my friends to come over and check it out because I knew it only
made itself known at night, in the dark. We were all in the living room with
all the lights off and the encounters were happening in the bedroom. I shut
the door a little and told them to be quiet and listen or watch the door
because I was sure something would happen, and sure enough, the door shut
completely and there was no one in there! Everyone took of running outside,
myself included because I was hoping that it was just me.
