In need of some help...

First of all welcome to the forum, lilblondiemjd

I think Sloan's comment was really worth thinking about : maybe the previous owner placed the cross on the wardrobe for protection, suggesting that somebody before you might have experienced something weird in that room. It's only a guess, but definitely possible!

I can totally understand why you felt scared and avoided staying in that room....I think most of us would feel the same. I had a similar experience once of seeing the ghost of a woman at the end of my bed and even though I was never hurt I was still naturally frightened....It's something we don't usually see, so our body is inclined to fear the unknown.
Having said all that, I think you were just frightened because it was a shock....thankfully, there doesn't seem to be any suggestion that this spirit wanted to hurt/scare you. Most likely the spirit is harmless and was just "passing through" so to speak. If you've never felt any real negativity or been hurt then I think you have nothing to worry about in that sense.

I would suggest maybe saying some prayers asking for this being to leave (respectfully) or perhaps, are you comfortable having a priest come to bless the room? Also, have you tried talking to this spirt when you see it? Or even talking to it when you don't as she still might hear? Maybe tell her how you feel scared around her......She might not know!

Hope that helps. Let us know how you get on.

I wouldn't remove the cross either. There is a reason it's there. Perhaps it gave the previous owners a sense of protection and comfort.
I don't know how religious you are, but saying the St. Michael's Prayer helps me. In case you don't know the prayer I will post it for you.

St. Michaels Prayer

Saint Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
and do Thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host -
by the Divine Power of God -
cast into hell, satan and all the evil spirits,
who roam throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls.

Amen.

Your fear is your weakness and it's strength. So unless you can control your negative emotions your may wish to consider moving out. Otherwise you just kickin a dead horse in the booty ! LOL No pun intended !!

My house was built in the 1950's, so it's not that old at all. For as long as I can remember, I have been terrified to sleep in my room. When I was about six or seven, I saw a young girl walking past my closet. I remember exactly what she looked like, short black hair, pale skin, white clothing. I don't remember being scared at that very moment, but I do remember closing my eyes and her not being there when I opened them. I've of course been told it was my imagination, a dream, etc...But I just don't see how something that wasn't real would still effect me to this day. So ever since then I've found alternative places to sleep. The weird part is, at about 15 I got the courage up to sleep in there for about a month as long as I had a tv and computer. It was fine...Nothing weird happened at all. (I have since moved out of my room again) I felt a lot more safe than before. Now I'm at the point where I do believe there is a presence in there, but I don't necessarily think it's a bad presence. I just always feel like I can't do anything in there...I feel like it's not my room. Not to be too personal, but I feel like I can't do anything intimate in there without the feeling that someones watching me...Or that I might upset someone. It's just an odd feeling. I'm not sure if the feeling is legit, or it's just me making myself scared.


One thing I'm VERY curious about, is a drawn cross on my closet. There is a medium sized cross that someone drew on my closet before we moved in. I've tried to research why it could be there, but have found nothing. Why would someone in the past have drawn a random cross on my closet? Especially when that's where I saw the girl? Does anyone have any insight on this?

Thank you for any help in advance!

The theory is that we are constantly surrounded by these entities. But we can not see them because they exist out side our visual spectrum. It's also believed that entities are not tied down, that they tend to attach themselfs to familier objects, places or people. Sometimes even to individuals who are just able to notice them. We tend to think human because we are. In this field ya need to think out side the box, where time and space have little meaning, and where travel is as quick as thought. Looking at it from this prespective, ya really never know who's watching ya now !! LOL That was comforting wasen't it ?

you are right, i do think outside the box, and attachments do happen very often. Its not just who is watching you, but who is riding piggy back?? I can tell when i have an attachment, as my legs feel very heavy for that time. I have also talked to some friends recently, and i had brought spirits with me to visit them, lol. today i took some back home with me. Long story!!!

Probably not a good idea to remove the cross, for it may be some kind of seal. Make sure you have the mentality that the room is yours. No one else's YOURS, and make it known. Do what ever you want from stupidity to intimacy. If your scared at night, leave the light on and keep a flash light or cellphone near by just in case; you can do this until you feel a bit more comfortable with the feel of YOUR room. Usually ghosts wont show themselves in the light. Hope this helps.
