The calling

Well for the last 6 weeks I've been awaiting some test results for an MRI scan I had, so to say the least, when the results were given to me it was a welcome relief to myself. I wouldn't consider myself as a worrier at all, but this could of been life changing, and for the worse.

Why am I telling you this you may ask, well it was on Monday (21/07/14) that I had my appointment, and also on Monday night that I was called. Let me set the scene for you.

I had walked into my bathroom to was my face with some cold water as it was rather a hot evening, and after I splashed my face I looked directly into my mirror at my own reflection. I couldn't decide if I wanted to cry with relief or just to carry on and not mention to my girlfriend the severity of the situation. It was at this moment that I heard in my left ear a female voice calling my name.

The way it was done was slightly different to normal in that my name was drawn out, it was made longer which made it sound odd. Also the fact that it felt like it came from someone stood within 4 feet of me, yet I know my girlfriend was in fact in the front room, on the other side of the house.

So with towel in hand and patting my wet face down, I walked to the door way of the front room and asked my girlfriend what did she want. She looked at me puzzled and said "I never called you, maybe it was the ghost". I said "Ha, yeah right, did you call the dog ?" and she said "I was playing with the dog, so might of made some sounds, but I didn't call him". So either these sounds changed when they traveled down my hallway, or my head and ears just messed with me.

My walk back to the bathroom felt rather cold, despite the heat, and more thoughts went through my mind, but not about the voice, about my life and it's direction.

The Stairway

It was before 9pm last night when Max my dog was playing up a little, and by playing up a little I mean he was unsettled and restless, there was no reason for this, he just was ?

Well as the evening went on I became more aware that he was sat looking into the corner of the front room. I kept braking his concentration by throwing his ball into the hall way. But after one throw he never returned to the room, yet oddly for the first time ever he was sniffing at the front door that opens into the hallway. Well I went out into the hallway to see what he was doing, and asked him to return to the front room, but he wasn't having it. So I opened the door to the main front hallway, and he stood sniffing, and then he barked a little, followed by a little growl. I reassured him that nothing was there by walking out into the hallway, and although the hallway is poorly lit I walked to the bottom of the stairway and started to walk up. Max unusually didn't follow me, he decided to stay by the door, at this point I called to him and said "Come on old boy, there's nowt here".

But as I turned to look up the stairs, I saw something in the light. Now this is really hard to describe, and it wasn't like anything you see in a horror film, it was like a shimmer in the like. It was almost like something blurred my vision, really odd, but it seemed to have some kind of form, and moved across the top of the stairs and down towards me.

Well although it sounds really odd I rubbed my eyes, and took out my phone and started to take some photos. Now again I have explained in an earlier post that my phone is an old Nokia E63, and not the best thing, but I had to take or try to take what I was seeing. Looking back on it I did actually feel colder, but didn't put it down to anything other than leaving a warm seat I was sat in.

I will post the 3 photos up unedited, as they were taken off of my phone. Then below them I will post one that I tried to edit in photo shop (not my best skill)






All I have done on these pictures is outline just a slight difference in light within the photo, and I don't know, I'm sat here looking at these thinking maybe my eyes are playing tricks on me. But that doesn't explain the dogs unusual behavior, or the fact that 1. I felt really cold and 2. I saw something in the dark with my own eyes.








Maybe I just need a holiday ? but again, I'm not doing this to make money, or gain attention as I'm anonymous.

The Following

Well here we are again, a new entry, although based on something that happened a over 2 weeks ago.

I must say the main reason for my lack of updates is mainly down to me just trying to get on with my life and the acceptance that something is going on here, but not to allow it to alter my day to day life. So let's rewind a few nights then shall we.

I was up late one evening laid on my bed watching a little T.V. I wasn't watching anything specific just channel hopping really, but as the night drew on I decided to go and get a fresh glass of water to have beside my bed. Well I got up and sat on the edge of the bed, gathered my thoughts, stood up, took a deep breath and turned to my left to head off towards my kitchen.

I hadn't taken more than about 6 steps when I heard behind me a thump on the floor, I continued walking out of the room feeling Max my dog to my left side and walking with me. Well it's funny how things work isn't it, as at that very moment when I entered into my hallway I suddenly thought to myself that in fact Max hadn't been on my bed beside me, at which point Max walked into the hallway to greet me from the front room.

I stopped immediately, turned around and walked back into the bedroom and also took a quick look around the house to make sure no other animal had gotten in. Although I knew all along that nothing could have, and although a very unusual experience, and something that my dog didn't even take any notice of, well I put it aside and thought I must of just been over tired. But in my head I knew otherwise, but can you have ghost dogs ? even if it was a dog.
