The Real Ghost Stories


Ghost In The Shower 

When I was small, about 10, I went to go visit my aunt

She always had stories to tell me and I would always tell her to tell me ghost stories, but she wouldn't because my mother was always there and she was really afraid of any ghost stories

Well that time I went, my mom stepped out so I was able to talk to her alone

She told me that when she was about fourteen or fifteen she went to take a shower

The showers where she lived were different

Instead of them inside they were outside

She said that she took her buckets of water and headed outside

She started to take off her clothes when she saw black figure over her

She thought it was the shadow of a bird so she ignored it when it disappeard

She started to wet her hair when she noticed a persons feet right next to her. She thought at first someone got in, but when she looked up she saw a black man dressed as an indian with scratches all over his face and arms

She didn't know what to do so she stayed frozen in place and just stared as the man looked at her from head to toe naked

That's when she scram and the man disappeared into thin air

She told my granny, but they could not do anything

From then on she didn't see the man, but she did see shadows. I asked her if it was true or if she was making it up, but she promised me it was true

Not so long ago was I in her house by myself when I noticed black shadows there

At first I thought it was my imagination, but I kept seeing them

That's when I believed the story was true. 



Laughing Shadow 

First, just a little history

I was in Mexico, living in a town that was founded 102 years ago, and before that was only forest

I also found out that it was a route people used to travel from town to town and because of that many people were killed there. To start, I was 10 when it happened

I was laying in bed reading a book and after a while I just put the book down and started to doze off

It was kind of hot that night so I decided to sleep on the floor since it was a lot cooler

I put a blanket on the floor and laid down to sleep

After what seemed like seconds, I start hearing someone walking around me

It sounded like they had boots on

I thought I was dreaming and thought nothing of it, but the sound continued and I knew I was awake now

I opened my eyes to see if someone was there, but nobody was there

I immediately jumped on my bed, and covered myself with a blanket

I guess I fell asleep, because next thing I knew I was opening my eyes and it was morning. That same week it started to rain really hard and the ceiling in my room started to leak

My parents had to make a temporary patch until the raining stopped and could be repaired, until then I had to sleep in my brother's room. My brother had two single beds, each one against either side of the room

At the foot of my brother's bed was the bathroom door and outside, next to the door, was an extra chair we had in the room in case we needed it when we did homework. On the first night that I slept there, it was still raining pretty hard

I felt a bit comfortable knowing I wasn't alone in the room, but as I dozed off I started to feel as if someone was watching me

I opened my eyes and looked at my brother

I thought maybe he wasn't asleep yet, but he had his back to me and was asleep

I decided I was maybe being a bit paranoid, so I just laid back down

As soon as I closed my eyes I started to hear the footsteps again, and it sounded exactly the same as when I was in my room

This time I didn't open my eyes, because I knew that if I opened them I wouldn't see anyone there. After a while the footsteps stopped and I felt a bit better, but my feeling of being watched became stronger

I opened my eyes and sitting in the chair next to the bathroom was someone dressed completely in black

He just sat there without moving and all of a sudden he started to laugh quietly and started to laugh louder and louder

I was scared out of my mind, but I couldn't stop looking at the shadow figure

I couldn't move either

I was frozen in place

It wasn't until a flash of lightning from the storm filled the room and after the flash was gone, so was the figure. I jumped off the bed and turned the lights on

I searched the room and the bathroom and found that nobody was there

My brother woke up and asked what I was doing

I told him what happened and he only replied that he didn't hear or see anything, not even the loud laughter

He told me to turn the lights off and go back to sleep

I turned the lights off and as I passed by the window, I saw a figure walking away from my house

It was the same shadow figure in the chair

I continued to stare for what seemed like hours until the shadow turned around

His eyes glowed red and all of a sudden he started to sink into the ground


Shocked at what I saw, I just ran to the bed and hid under the covers until morning. I went to check the spot where I saw the shadow sink, but there was nothing different about the area

I never saw the shadow figure again after that.
