My Childhood

Author: Bella Holt

Ever since I was a baby I have lived in houses that were haunted. When I was born I lived in a house where the doors would open and close randomly. Then, when I was 2 we moved to Arkansas. My parents were pulling weeds when they found a 1930s Ouija board. We never used it because we never found the planchette. And because my dad was really into ghosts and spirits. One night when I was 3 (I have no recollection of this night this is what my parents told me) I woke up, My parents were on the couch watching a movie. I was walking all the way across the house, keep in mind I was 3 and that was a pretty hard walk, I ended up walking to my front door. I was trying to get outside. Both of my parents had to block the door. They said it was something or someone else was controlling my mind. Well, when I was 7 we moved into a house that we would soon come to find out was haunted. Ever since we moved here When we ask yes yes or no questions at the dinner table, the lights flicker once or twice. I live in the add on part of my house that was built in the 70s. As to where the rest of my house was built in 1924. The old man died before the add on was built. So now he constantly walks through my room because that’s where the old door to the outside is. He walks through the end of my bed to my lego shelf. He also played my guitar once and is stealing a lot of stuff. My family and I also think there could be a 2nd ghost upstairs because the only thing the old man ever does is walk through my room into my garage and open and close all the doors. But my mom was asleep upstairs, and my dad woke up to go to the bathroom. While he was in there he heard a noise in their closet. He asked who it was and got no reply. Ever since then The light flicker more, I hear more footsteps and doors. Especially since I have started researching ghosts and spirits. That is my childhood, a lot of ghosts.
