Do you have any ghost stories to share? Real or fake, scary or not, all ghostly tales are welcome here～
Whether this is truly a ghost story or not, this is something that took place when I was in middle school:
I awoke early one Saturday morning, and when I opened my eyes I saw what appeared to be a kind, elderly woman smiling at me and gesturing as if she wanted me to follow her. Usually, if I had woken up at the time on a Saturday then I would have fallen back to sleep, but I was surprised, so I decided to just get up. The woman had disappeared as soon as I blinked of course. Upon going downstairs I first noticed my brother, asleep on the couch. I then proceeded to the kitchen where I saw that the oven was on. At this point I woke up my brother and asked him why the oven was on. He jumped up and ran to the oven. His food was quite burnt, but that was the extent of it. Now, at this point you may be thinking that what I saw was simply a hypnopompic hallucination, a type of hallucination that can occur while one is waking up. I too felt that way, until a week or two later at least.
A week or two later I was sitting in the living room watching TV when my brother came running down the stairs saying he was going to be late for work. As he dashed about he told me the circumstances in which he had finally woken up. His alarm clock had gone off and he had either ignored it or slept through it, but then he woke up to see an old woman standing at his door and waving at him to come on. It was then that he had looked at his alarm clock and realized that he was running late.
The fact that we both had such similar experiences so close together is certainly interesting considering that I hadn't even told him about the elderly woman I had seen.
