Shadow Boy
by Jayne

We have lived in our house for about six years. Nothing weird has ever happend until recently. I was the first one to see it; I was asleep when I woke up and saw my nine-year-old son standing by the side of my bed. I assumed he was scared, so I said, "Nick come here." The small figure just stood there – a black figure of a boy. I thought it was Nick, but then I realized it wasn't. I kept telling it to come here but it just stood there. I was so scared. I lay back down, and when I looked up, it was pacing back and forth in front of my bed, then it disappeared. That was the first occurrence.

A couple of weeks later, we were traveling up north. At about 5:30 a.m., my husband drove his truck around the back of the house to unload some stuff. He got out of the truck and was going to open the garage door, when in the yard he saw a black figure of a boy waving to him. He thought it was our son and asked it to open the door for him. He waited but the black figure never opened the door. He went back to where he saw the boy, and it was gone. He went inside the house and our son was sound asleep. My husband swore he saw the black figure for a good 30 seconds, and it actually waved to him. The most recent and scariest incident just happened this morning. My son came running into my room saying he felt a wind of cold air between his legs, and then the wind was punching him in the chin. He was in my bed, and I couldn't believe it. His face looked like someone had punched him; it was bruised and blood vessels were broken. We are terrified. We do not know what to do – any help would be appreciated.
