Spooky Series 3: Monsters, Myths, and Legends
I have shared some of my paranormal encounters in my previous articles and I delayed writing the continuation because this beautiful soul @FarmGirl said she had enough scare already lol. But I can't wait to tell you the next chapter of my experience guys. I know some of you might not believe me and I respect that. Anyways, let me tell you now while the little, cute "monster" is peacefully sleeping. The white lady and her child I am not sure why I started having nightmares when I was 16. Perhaps it was connected to the "black smoke" that visited me in the chapel when I slept there with my churchmate, Fatima. One night, I had a strange dream. I saw a woman and her child sitting, staring at me. I couldn't see their faces, all I see is that they are wearing white clothes. I didn't put too much attention to that nightmare until it happened again the following night. She was talking to me with her angry voice saying, "We won't leave you alone". I got scared and I told my mama. She told me to pray, and I said, "I already did!". The nightmare kept on happening until I started to have panic attacks and my body began trembling with fear. My mother still won't believe me. I felt so alone. Maybe I need to put more faith while praying. Or, is my faith being tested? "Read the Bible", she exasperatedly told me after I came to her crying because of my nightmares. So I took my little Bible and read some verses until I fell asleep with the bible in my hand. It only took a few minutes before my visitors appeared again. But it is totally different this time- I felt strange protection. They are still in my dreams but I got less scared. You really won't believe me but the Bible actually got so warm that I woke up. I even released it because I felt it burning. And there was no fire. Was that a miracle and a proof of His power? YES, it was! The nightmares stopped. She actually visited me again, almost a month ago. She fiercely faced me (with her faceless face) and gripped my hands. I was strong enough to fight back this time. When I said, "I bless myself with pure love and light. I bless myself with pure source energy", she disappeared like a bubble. One thing that I am afraid of- my eldest daughter, Elora, saw the "woman and a child" in her dreams too. Why do you think this is happening? A not-so-friendly doppelganger
It was my rest day. Chase, my roommate, and I were just chillin' in our room. Suddenly "Lee" entered, quickly removed her shoes, and went to her bed. She didn't say anything, nor looked me in the eyes. It was strange though, the deck didn't move despite her movements. It was almost 6:00 PM when a noisy person came inside the room. I was surprised when I saw it was Lee. I asked, "Weren't you already here?". Lee replied, "I just came from work, I needed to render an OT!". "Then who was that person who arrived this morning?". Chase and I nervously looked at each other. "Don't you dare scare me Glai!", Lee panicking. And then I checked her bed, it was empty. There were no shoes, no eyeglasses. "Who the he** was that?!!"...We chorused terrifyingly. **************************************************************** This is my entry to the 14th weekly prompt of Ms. @JonicaBradley .

I'd love to meet them all!
Hehe ikaw talaga sis :) Di naman sila maganda hahaha
Spooky stuff little sister.
Yeah, big sister :) It's spooky. And I am not sure why daughter saw that woman and the child in her dreams too. I never mentioned it to her.
In Laos, they call the Buddhist nuns White Lady because they wear white. I was a white lady.
I used to be a white lady too :) Our church only allows white clothes during worships. I was even accused of being a cult member lol
eeeek.
hahaha some Filipinos are judgmental
I know this is true of my mother who spent her childhood until she was 16 in the Philippines.
We have a lot of "chismosa"/ gossipy neighbours hehee especially those housewives and old maids
My whole town is pure gossip. It's a small town. Only 2000 people. Everything is everybody's business.
I know how it feels, the place where I grew up was a small one too. Most of them were our relatives, yikes.
Yes. It's the same here. But our relatives have already died. My husband has some living relatives in another city only 45 minutes away, but his parents live about 7 hours away. My parents live in New York.
I'm afraid I still have a lot of living relatives lol..You drive every time you visit your husband's parents? Cool, I used to be a VA and my former boss was from New York.
Mostly they drive up to see us several times a year. I haven't seen my parents since Covid. Which is honestly fine with me. My mom stresses me out too much.
My mom does the same but I haven't seen her for years which makes me sad.
I am glad I didn't read this last night, LOL! I wouldn't have had a good sleep if I did haha.
I'm reading it now and I'm about to sleep lol!
Sweet dreams LoL!
Hahahah you guys are about to sleep? I am just getting started hehehe
Hahah good decision sis :) I wanted to add the other story but perhaps next time :D
🤣 ok lng minsan kng d gumagana imagination pwde basahin :D
Ahehehe kung di ka ba naman lalabas magisa na tonight ok lang :D
I think I've experience the doppelganger with my friends as well, it's not a fun experience, to say the least 🙃
Yeah they aren't fun at all. They don't speak, to my experience.
These are really creepy experiences! But I've always been more afraid of the living than of ghosts! ;)
I totally agree, those ghosts cannot touch us or harm us physically :) Humans are scarier, but they are still scary hehe
More haha! I remember there were stories of those visitors who slept in the school chapel. One time a visitor arrived early morning and entered the school campus. Since it's his first time, he decided to enter the chapel. Sometimes they forgot to lock the doors of the chapel. Since it is still dark, he decided to sleep in one of the benches. He cant' sleep because of the mosquitoes then he started hearing noise coming from one of the benches as if someone sat or got off the bench. Our benches were made of steel and wood and they are uneven so a slight touch to some of them will make a noise. He thought it was one of the working students cleaning the chapel. When he tried to see if there was somebody there, no one was yet the benches kept making noise. He decided to leave the chapel and go search for the teachers' quarters. That chapel has seen lots of deaths. I mean wake services were being held there. During my study there, I have attended at least three wakes. I don't know if the spirits of the dead have something to do with the stories that was told that happened in the chapel.
Ehhh that was scary! Ayoko ng mga ganyan, yung di ko nakikita kasi mas malala ang naiisip ko.
Siya un speaker sa isang event that time at nikwento nya yan. Natakot talaga kami nun haha! Iniiwasan namin ung chapel pag dumilim na. Pati mga working students dami kwento jan kasi maaga sila naglilinis dun. Ganun din daw meron na lang gagalaw bigla na mga benches.
Pag kayang magpagalaw ng ghost ng mga bagay, that means grabe yung emotions nya. Eeek scary.
Siguro nga. Meron pa ako nawitness dun muntik ma devil possess or na possess pero di nagtuloy. Grabe un chapel na un.
Yun ang sabi nila Sam Winchester sa Supernatural (if you're familiar with the series))
