Pulling My Son's Leg
Rate this encounter:
Pebbles Reams, Chester, Arkansas - April 2007
My son (who was four at the time) and I went to Chester to be there for my
disabled Uncle Billy because his partner of 27 years (my other Uncle Jesse)
was dying of cancer. We were there five days when he passed. We stayed to
help my Uncle Billy through his grief and get things in order. Two weeks
after Uncle Jesse passed, my son and I were going to sleep in the spare
bedroom upstairs and we were just laying there talking when in the middle of
the conversation my son says, "That guy is fixin' to pull my leg."
I said are you telling me that there is a man standing next to the bed? He
said, "Yes, and he is fixin' to pull my leg… watch." I laid there in
disbelief as I watched my son's leg raise and watched him just slide over to
the edge of the bed! Which is a good 18 inches. Oh my God, I could not
believe what just happened right in front of my eyes! I pulled my son back
to me and he asked, "Who is that guy?"
I said, "It's probably Uncle Jesse, you know how much he loved you and he
probably just wanted to play with you one more time."
My son said, "I hope so, 'cause he is fixin' to do it again." And there he
went, leg raised and slides right over to the edge of the bed
again!
I was in total shock! I couldn't believe it happened the first time, but now
a second time. I was totally freaking out! My son asked me, "Is he going to
hurt me?"
I said, "No baby, you know Uncle Jesse would never hurt you, don't you?"
He said, "I know Uncle Jesse wouldn't, but this guy doesn't look like Uncle
Jesse." I didn't want him to be scared because up to this point he wasn't
scared at all. So I said, "Well, sometimes when you first go to heaven you
don't look the same as you did when you were here on earth, so that's
probably why he doesn't look the same." I have had lots of encounters
throughout my life, and of course when he passed I hoped that he would come
and visit us. But I also know that some bad spirits will prey on you when
you're down and use it to their advantage. But no matter what, I did not
want my son hurt, let alone scared, so I just kept reassuring him that it
was Uncle Jesse and he didn't have to worry about anything. I pulled him
close to me and just held him and he finally went to sleep, but I didn't
sleep all night just because I could not believe what had just taken place
twice right in front of my eyes!
