When I was 24 years old I had my first baby. It was a very
difficult pregnancy and it ended with an emergency c-
section. When I was released from the hospital after a two
week stay, I was alone at home. I had no one to help me, as
my husband was working.
The problems started the first night that I was home alone. I was sitting in the living
room with my baby. I was talking on the phone to a coworker
when my bedroom door slammed shut. My friend had heard it
also, as she was asking if a burglar had gotten in. I went
and checked the door and it was open, not shut. So I shut
the door and sat back down in the living room. Just a few
moments later I heard the same door slam again, and I mean
a very loud,clear slam! I became frightened, and called my
husband to come home.
This occurred late in the evening, so
by the time my husband got home from work it was late. We
went to bed almost immediately. I was exhausted from the
fear.
My husband and my baby and I got in bed to go to
sleep when my bedroom door opened. My husband saw this
clearly and jumped up with his gun. When he turned the
bedside lamp on he saw that there was nothing there. He lay
down once again leaving the door open. After he turned the
lamp back off it was just a short time later that a large
black figure entered the doorway of the bedroom. As we
watched it, it was as if it just disappeared from the
doorway to directly in front of our faces! I grabbed the
baby and screamed. My husband turned on the light again and
it was gone! We left that house only to return the next day
in the light. I had constant nightmares after that until
the baby was one month old and then the nightmares just
stopped.
