Introduction

As a young adult I had looked back at these experiences and dismissed them as part of my vivid childhood imagination. This would a logical and much less frightening explanation to these strange happenings. I have come to realize later in my life that this has not been the case. These experiences were real.

When I was a child every night would be filled with nightmares, these bad dreams were sometimes about wiches, monsters or other things. The strangest and most scary dreams that followed me into adulthood were about evil beinings that looked like real people, but they werent. Most nights I spent sleeping on the couch, too terrified to sleep in my own room because I believed something might be in there. When I got older I finally started to sleep in my bed but only with my bedroom door open and the hallway light on.
