The White Lady
by Christine B.

Ever since I was four years old, I have had an uneasy feeling about my bedroom, which has always been in the basement. At night, for no apparent reason, I get this horrible feeling of sheer terror and a strong fear of being watched. My room is always freezing-even on hotter then hell summer days and it's temperature always gets colder during the course of the night. I've seen objects in my closet move. When I was about nine years old, I remember feeling a rush of adrenaline and a sudden fear of panic strike through my body. I quickly turned to face the wall - but stopped to look around the room all was in its place until I looked at the corner by the foot of my bed I saw a figure of what seemed to be a tall white female figure. Every detail was clear except for her face. She didn't seem to have a face, just a white blur. She seemed to be semi-transparent. I know this wasn't just the light shining through the window on my door because I had put posters over the windows. When I saw her and partially gotten over my shock, I began to cry and jumped out of my bed, ran up the stairs and woke up my parents. I told them what happened and referred to the figure as the "White Lady." My parents didn't believe me, because I was only nine. They gave me hot tea and let me sleep on a cot upstairs. 

Even before the apparition, I have been complaining about my room and giving my parents a hard time, but this was the last straw. I've returned to sleeping in that room and I always have that feeling of dread come back. But the "Lady" hadn't appeared recently and I began to feel more comfortable - until my dad told me that he was sleeping and suddenly woke up for no apparent reason he said he looked over at Diana - my step-mother - and saw a "White Lady" drift up from in between them. She seemed to have been sleeping in between them. She suddenly got up looked at my father and disappeared. Since then, appliances have turned on and off when not plugged in.
