I sympathize with the main character. Both of my parents have bipolar and schizophrenia and my mom passed away last August. She was stable until I became an adult then her mental state went more downhill. So I get about not able to see your mother much, even if it was after I got older. Anyway, great story! I really enjoyed it.

This is a tough one. The only explanation I can come up with is that maybe the father was forbidden to say anything. Maybe that was a strange rule that came from the boy to the father. That's all Ive got. Great story!!!!! 👏 bravo!!!!

My dad always told me that when she asked for something tell her you were gooing to go get it. Even if we didnt have it. Every time we got back she would be gone. That house had so many restless spirits. Including and older fellow. Youd see a black orb float from the kitchen, to my parents room, then to the bathroom. I heard he died from drowning in the bath tub. That girl in the pink tutu was a strange one.

I've been doing paranormal investigations for going on 4 years. My fiance and I have every professional piece of equipment there is. SB7, EVP recorder, 3 REM Pods, SLS camera, Flare camera, ghost box and even touch sensitive flashlights. We have lots of different evidence and catches, but last November I was cursed with an attachment. I feel this things moods, it's energy, it's depression, hopelessness and often times extreme anger. Never had any issues in my life of 43 years until last November when we investigated Batchelors Grove cemetery on the south side Chicago where we live. The digital pictures from that night reveal lots of different color orbs, 2 pics show a white mist around me. That's when we believe the attachment happened. I've been to mediums and was told it's a demon. Something that was never human and it would explain the sudden bouts of anger and depression and hopelessness. When it's not affecting me I'm fine no issues at all. Trying to find a way to exorcise this entity. Smudging and sage does nothing. Totally worthless

The father should have been honest with him right from the beginning. He should have warned him what horror's would follow if he ever spoke to the boy, just telling him not to talk to the boy wasn't a strong enough warning. Even if the dad didn't fully believe his wife once his son started saying the same sort of stuff the dad should have tried harder to get his son to never never never talk to the boy. Now his poor son has to try and live though a nightmare. Such a tragic story 😔
