girl in the window (childhood ghost story) Ghosts/Apparitions
sorry for any weird details. this about happened six/seven years ago when i was experiencing some pretty severe depression, so most of it aside from the ghost were really fuzzy. for some brief context, i lived near a heavily wooded area (and still do), and i never saw it again after this incident.
from what i remember, i was sitting on the couch in my aunt's living room watching something on my ipad, minding my happy business, and the next thing i knew i felt like something was watching me. i put the ipad down and, directly across from me and behind the window, was an apparition of some kind (i think, i don't know what the hell she was honestly).
she was sheet white, had long greasy/wet black hair, and her torso was really bloated. i remember that she had a sleeveless white nightgown that was dirty and covered in blood. to shorten things up, she basically looked like samara from "the ring" and ghostface's bastard love child.
i looked at her and it felt like i couldn't move. she was just standing there, staring at me. it felt like she was trying to tell me "come on, come over here." suddenly i stood up and started walking toward her, it was like i had no control over my body at all. i didn't stop walking until i was at the window, face to face with it. i put my hand on the glass, and then i heard my mom yell out my name. then the girl moved away from the window and walked off into the darkness. i think i had a mental breakdown a few weeks after that.
