Readers Stories Stranger in the Night I'm 49 and now live in Cornwall but until two years ago lived all my life in Croydon Surrey. My first experience of anything strange was when I was about 8 years old. At the time, I was upstairs at the family home; I could hear my baby brother Billy crying in his cot, he was only about 6 months old. I could hear his cot being rocked, I opened the door to find no one in the room and Billy still crying. I walked over to the cot and as I was standing trying to quieten my brother, a bright light appeared beside the cot and Billy stopped crying. I ran out of the room and found the light was now at the top of the stairs. I ran down the stairs and into the front room where I found my mother and father sitting in front of the TV, there had been no other persons in the house but us. I never mentioned my experience to them (don't know why to be honest) but that was the first of a number of strange things I have experienced throughout my life. Possibly the worst thing that has ever happened was one night just after moving to another property. We had moved into the family home, which I already knew was occupied by two spirits; they were nice kind things, which never did anything to anyone except make the odd noise or door openings. As my daughter got to about 6 years of age she started talking about the man and the lady which came to visit her mostly at night. My wife, who cant see these things just thought it was kids talk and I didn't tell her any different. All was peaceful in our home until one night Deb, my wife and I were watching TV and Tanya was in bed, I sensed something was wrong and felt the room turning cold. Without a word I rushed up to Tanya's bedroom. The room was so cold our breath was visible, as I turned on the light Tanya was laying down with her eyes wide open she never blinked even when the light was turned on. I looked at her for a moment thinking maybe she is asleep, but as I got closer, a deep guttural voice said, "what do you want"? I asked it to leave my daughter but it just laughed and swore at me using the f word over and over again. I then grabbed Tanya from her bed and took her down stairs with me, her eyes were still closed her head was on my shoulder, she was still asleep. The following day she could remember nothing about what had happened. I thought all was well until two days passed and she looked at me and said daddy you wont let that bad man come to me anymore will you. I moved Tanya out of that room and have since used it as a storeroom, although she did see the nice spirits we never had that problem again. This is from over ten years ago and is still clear in my mind. Just to add to this I would like to say that this is true and not elaborated in any way.
