The only time where I am pretty certain that
I saw a ghost/something supernatural was on a church youth group trip I took in
early high school. It was an all-girls trip where we stayed at a beach house in
Wilmington, NC for the weekend. In the middle of the second night we were
there, I woke up to one of the other girls staying in the room screaming in her
sleep. I sat up, looked over, and saw a girl standing over her bed and right by
where she was sleeping. At first, I thought it was just a girl who stayed in
another room at first, but once I looked more closely, it wasn't. I was
definitely wide awake and laid back down as I watched her walk around the bed.
I noticed that there was what looked like a red and whited striped towel on the
wall (which was not there when we went to sleep), and the thing that really
freaked me out was that the mirror facing the two beds was pitch black. Even in
darkness, you can still see somewhat of a reflection in a mirror, but not this
one, it was completely black. No reflection. The girl noticed that I was
looking at her — she turned around and made the nastiest, snarliest face at me.
I still remember the slits of her eyes giving me that evil glare. My entire
body ran cold and I began to shake, as I start screaming that there's a ghost.
This doesn't wake up the girl who was shouting in her sleep, but it does wake
up the other 2 girls in the room, who say go back to sleep. The ghost-girl
doesn't disappear. She stands there placidly at the end of the other bed and
watches us as one girl tells me to calm down. I start crying and hide under the
covers until I manage to fall asleep. In the morning, I was so relieved to wake
up and see the mirror back to normal and no towel hanging on the wall. Of
course, I am all "ghost! ghost! there was a ghost!" in the morning,
to which I receive rolled eyes and chidings of "Christians don't believe in
ghosts, and you shouldn't either" (eff that, you need a better reason than
that). One of the girls who I woke up starts laughing, saying she thought it
was so silly of me. I run through my story - creepy girl, black mirror, red and
white towel on the wall. At the mention of the towel, she stops and gives me a
funny look, a look that clearly said to me that she did see something when I
woke her up. I didn't say anything, but after that, if [my ghost] was brought
up, she quickly changed the conversation.
