Impersonation
by Alex
Everyone in this house has
seen something that looks like one of us, but not exactly the same. It even
makes our voices, too. My sister says that it even copied my girlfriend in a
certain way. Now this story also ties into the black-eyed people, which first
started out with my brother.
Its starts out more than seven years ago with my brother, his girlfriend at
that time, and my sister. Whenever my brother would get into an argument with
his girlfriend or would just get real mad, she would see something in her room
that looked like him, but it was pale white, had no expression, and black eyes.
One night she said she woke up at night and saw the apparition or what ever
it is, come out of her closet and leave her room. She got up to follow it to
her parents' bedroom, and then she said that it was lying in between her parents
as it slowly turned around and looked at her. She then ran to her room and locked
her door.
My sister didn't know about this experience his girlfriend had, and told us that sometimes when she would be asleep she would wake up and see the same figure sitting down by her bed. She was little then, so she didn't realize what it was she thought he was really there looking over her until, she said, that she could never see his eyes. Now my brother's girlfriend had seen that figure about seven or eight times, once even when my brother was in the same room with her. That was the last time she saw that figure.
Recently it started with my sister. I had moved out when she said these occurrences started. It started out one night she woke up to knocking at her door, and my oldest brother calling her. When she got up and opened the door, no one was there, just complete darkness. She told me this happened several times to where she would even open her door at a certain time of night, except if someone was up there with her. She told everyone there, but no one wanted to believe her. Sometimes she wouldn't go to sleep until there was daylight.
Last year I moved back in and she told me that I could take her room because she didn't want to be in that room. I heard all the stories she said and told her that I wasn't scared of anything like that. I told her these things are like animals: they can sense fear, and when they do, that's when they bother you or harm you. Well, about three days later I woke up to something knocking underneath my bed. I knew it couldn't be possible, because my beds less than a foot of the floor. I ignored it and went back to sleep.
A couple of weeks later, it was around nine or nine-thirty, my sister was showing my mother something on the computer and went to go talk to them. I then left to the bathroom to take a shower, they both told me that less than five minutes later they saw this pale figure that looked like me run out of the middle room (the room was empty my oldest brother had moved out.) It was hunched over like it was trying to not be seen, and then it turned around and the eyes were completely black its mouth was open in a perfect circle that was also completely black. The figure ran towards the bathroom into the darkness. When I came out they were both telling me about it at the same time.
A couple of more weeks later on a Sunday, I woke up to knocking on my door, and in my father's voice was telling me to get up for church. It went on for almost a minute, and like I always do I ignored it and went back to sleep. When I woke up again I started thinking about it and I snapped that they have never told me to get up on Sunday to go to church, and the other thing was that the knocking was coming from the bottom part of the door. When they got back I asked them if any of them was knocking on my door, and they both told me no. I then told them what ever was bothering Diane (my sister) was trying to mess with me.
The following month I got home from work and my sister asked me if my girlfriend was here, and I told her no, then asked why. She said that as she was walking up the stairs, she heard something run to my room as she got to the doorway, to her room which is across from mine, she saw that the door was open a little and that she something that looked like my girlfriend walking around in the room. She then went back down and then went back to her room. When she got to the top, she saw whatever it was that was in my room. She said that it looked like her but it was about six or seven feet tall, its arms were almost to its knees and it had long blonde hair that covered its face. The strange figure then ran into my room and she ran downstairs. The next day my girlfriend was going downstairs and when she turned around she saw a shadowy figure by the stairs and my sisters room. She started banging on my wall, but when I got out of the room nothing was there.
The last thing that happened was about a month ago. I heard my parents leaving, but I didn't here my sister go with them. at the same time I was going to leave I told my girlfriend that I didn't want to leave my sister there alone. Now I thought she was there because I heard her voice in her room talking and laughing, and someone moving around in there. I knocked on her door about three times, then I kicked it and still no answer. We went ahead and left, got back in less than 30 minutes. When my parents got back I asked them if Diane had gone with them, and they said yes. I then told them what I heard, a couple of days later I heard it again, but I just ignored it. You can believe it or not but I know what i've seen, and the similarity with those black-eyed people is kind of strange because I never heard of those stories until now.
