The Boy
This post might have a few breaks in it as I am recalling it all from memory from quite a young age. I’ve always believed in the supernatural but have never had hard evidence, like being actually able to see something visual.
Anyway, I lived in a semi-detached house in an average street for about 16 years with my mother, two sisters and stepfather. From a young age, I had an invisible friend. I have no recollection of him, but my mother has always told me that I had a male invisible friend but nobody can ever remember his name.
One of my earliest memories is of being told by my mother to put flour on the doorknobs and on the ground to find fingerprints and footprints. I was probably about 3 or 4. I also remember my mother saying that she had seen babies in the attic, crawling up the walls.
For years later, I’d asked my mother about it but she always denied it happened. I also talked to my sisters and they remembered it too. Then, about a year ago, me and my mother were having a chat and I mentioned that our old house had been kinda freaky and how I’d always felt like someone was in my bedroom. A boy, about my age. I used to spend whole weekends in my room with this boy, not talking, but comforted by the fact ‘someone’ was there.
She finally admitted that our old house had been exorcised. I told her I remembered a few things that had happened and she explained the whole story.
Her and my stepfather had been camping with a few friends when they decided to do a ouija board. (This was ironic as my mother had always made me SWEAR never ever to do ouija boards and refused to tell me why) She then said that they spoke to someone, and came home the next day. They did not smash the glass that they had used to do the ouija board and she started noticing freaky goings on.
I asked if the exorcism had worked and she said Yes.
A few days ago, I was in my old house where my sister now lives. We were cleaning my old room and I told her about my old friend that I imagined in my room. She said;
‘That’s strange, especially after mum said that a little boy had followed them back from camping.’
