I Am Going Insane..

[NOS2006]

Alright, so over the last few months, there's been a lot of crazy ghost-like action going on in my house.. so I'll tell you what's going on with this ghost of "me" (my mom and sister claim that it looks just like me). Be ready to read.. here are the instances it's been seen:

• When I went back to school like 2 terms ago a bunch of crazy stuff started happening in my room at home.. the alarm clock I haven't used in like 10 years started going off, some collectible Coke can on my counter got a pin size hole in the side and leaked all over my room, I don't know what else
• My mom saw "me" come into her room in the middle of the night a couple months back wearing the exact same thing I was wearing the next time she saw me.. she asked me if I came into her room last night and I hadn't.. so that's weird.
• A week or two after that my sister woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom.. she came out and "I" was standing in the hallway. She was like.. "Frankie, what are you doing up? Frankie? Frankie!" "I" didn't respond, instead the ghost walked like through my door and fainted away. Scared the $h! out of her and she told my mom but wouldn't talk to me about it for awhile..
• The next week I was in my sister's room helping her with a 4H project and my mom came in and was weirded out. I was like "Uhh, you okay?" She's like, "I could've sworn I just saw you walk into the foyer... and you're in here." That was a little while back and I'm not sure anything happened between then and this last weekend.
• Last weekend.. last Saturday actually.. I took my sister's friend, Sarah, home and my mom, dad, sis, and best friend Shaggy were at home. Well while I was out, my computer, with nobody in my room, started playing music. I came home and they told me about it. Shaggy's like "Yeah, it was Barenaked Ladies." I just guessed out loud saying, "One Week?" And I was right.. it was weird. Well, later I went into my room f@#kin' scared to check out my computer, and sure enough, that song was not the next or previous song on my playlist.. and you know iTunes, it keeps the right songs in the right order, even on random..
• Then this Friday my mom saw it again.. in the middle of the day (like noonish) it was standing in the living room by Katie (my pup), who was standing up right next to it. My mom kind of looked up, saw it, closed her eyes, looked again, and she said it faded away.. but it didn't just fade away, it looked like it was sucked into Katie. Like, it twirled down into Katie, like something crazy and weird that you'd see in a movie. She was scared $h!less I imagine.
• Last night, I was in the laundry room and the fire alarm in my room started going off causing all the others in the house to go off.. And I know it was in my room because, in the laundry room, I could tell that it wasn't near me, but I could still hear it, and my sis was in her room and she said it sounded like it came from my room. Coincidence? I don't know.

So.. I was thinking about this Friday after my mom told me what happened with the Katie incidence.. And I got a huge idea that could probably have some good weight to it.. My mom assumed that this is someone that's attached to Katie. Well, I said that can't be true because we got Katie when she was like 6 weeks, so I'm sure she wasn't old enough to have anybody that attached to her. Here are some other key notes I've figured out:

• This never happens with me around or in the room. I'm either at school, simply not at home, or in a completely different room.
• It's obviously attached to Katie somehow, and Katie absolutely loves me. (For example, this morning I swear she knew it was my birthday haha she jumped up on my bed going crazy and kissing me up and down. She usually isn't crazy in the morning lol but anyway..)
• Everything that's happening is attached to me (my room, my computer, my shelves, my fire alarm, looks like me, etc.), but like I said, it doesn't happen when I'm around. *knock on wood*

So like I said, I got this huge idea Friday after she told me and I thought about it for awhile:

"Hey mom, was it MY height, or a little bit shorter?"

"Uhh, it was your height."

"You sure it wasn't even like.. 1 or 2 inches shorter?"

"Well, it was up to about your eyes or forehead tall (putting her hand up to my forehead to measure)"

"And it looked really close to being me?"

"Yeah, but it had more blonde hair.. it looked close to you."

"Umm, didn't you have a miscarriage about a year after you had me?"

"What?!"

"I'm just saying.. could it be that you had a miscarriage? Think about it, if it's my little brother, wouldn't it make sense for him to ultimately be attached to me, my room, all that? It's a bunch of "boy stuff".. cars, computer stuff, etc. If it's a little bit shorter, he would've been about 18 this month.. he could've still had a little bit to grow. Doesn't it make sense?!"

Well I'm convinced that I'm right. This is just crazy. It's like it knows I don't want to see, hear, or know it's around.. but it's there at all times obviously, and we've had like 3 instances just this week where it was around to bother us in some way. What do you think? I'm going absolutely crazy.. I can't stop thinking about it, I was up 'til 2 in the morning because I kept thinking it was going to walk through my door or something. I kept hearing the ground creak from the heater turning off and flipped out every time. Then I got it in my head that he could be laying next to me and was f@#king scared $h!less to even turn around. I couldn't close my eyes, it was absolutely insane. This sucks so much..

Ever think of findning a paranormal investigator to come and check it out?

Creepy $h!.

Just wondering, in regards to the instances where you are walking into people's rooms, could you have been sleep walking? I'm a sleep walker, and it is some freaky stuff.

Dude. A miscarriage means a FETUS was aborted by nature. You don't have a little brother that somehow was quietly growing and developing all these years and suddenly BAM comes out of the woodwork to freak the $h! out of your family because he looks like you.

Well, my place isn't haunted and I'm still going insane

But that's freaky stuff...

Have you ever walked THROUGH a wood door while fading away while sleep walking? haha

It was about 5 or so months along when it was miscarried, it's not like it was only there for a week or two.

*chills*

[schuby87]

Wait wait wait wait wait, you think that the ghost of your miscarried brother is attached to your dog?

[Z-06]

Are you the ghost Frank and it is the real Frank showing up?

Wait who was the one that I saw in the Autoshow?

It is your ghost walking back from the future.

Good movie....

[Intrepidation]

Who ya gonna call?

[loki]

maybe you're right...? but check the water, air, got a basement / radon. i don't know, that definitely sounds creepy

[scharmer05]

HOLY hell you just creeped the $h! out of me. I'm a hardcore believer in this stuff and everything that you have said seems logical.

[Intrepidation]

You may want to call a paranormal expert. I believe in that stuff, too but I couldn't help my earlier post.

[76ChevyTrucker]

I'm in agreement with everyone else. I'd see if there is someone that could help you through this predicament.

[Cory Wolfe]

I think you're just going insane.

[Camino LS6]

Color me skeptical.

This is going to sound weird but since my dad died in June he has talked to most of my family and also myself in our sleep. He died in the old house which is now destroyed. I think that was meant to be since he wouldnt have wanted to die in the new one and know that my Mom would be haunted with his presense. Dont know.

I've had similar experiences, but only on a VERY small scale.... In this case, it's the deceased Grandparents MacDonald on my mother's side (on my Dad's side they're much younger and still around).

Grandma MacDonald was a spunky woman who was born in Mull, Scotland and emigrated to Cape Breton during WWI as a toddler... She died suddenly in 1979 and I never met her... Grandpa MacDonald was an stubborn but lovable, individualist, small-town Presbyterian minister from rural Nova Scotia who died a few months after I was born... but not before he had a chance to Baptize me personally a month before he died. I feel a special sort of 'connection' to him above all, it's odd, and difficult to explain, but sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night to see the man just standing over my bed. As freaky as it is, It's real comforting in a way too. It's like he's there for support and telling me to 'stay the course'. I also have a recurring dream where I'm walking in a snowy grove of trees and my Grandmother, complete with 1970s clothing and hair is passing on proverbial matronly advice to me, all the while insisting there was 'oil under the house' at Rockyside.

Speaking of odd instances, if you walk down the main hallway in my house after midnight, you can get the feeling that something is heavily shadowing your footsteps. It gets quite unsettling sometimes. On one rare occasion, the guest bedroom door shut closed on its own accord (I think that has more to do with the hinge, as we have to put something at the bottom of the door when it's wide open to keep it open, but it never has clicked shut before).
