My First Experience

   When I was very young indeed, like my siblings before me, I met what was to be my first entity. We all were moved from the nursery room to the big kid room after potty training which was just across the hallway from the upstairs bathroom.
    The bed would always end up situated in the center of the room with the head of it against the wall; in this position when you rolled over you are facing the door of the bathroom directly. It just so happened this would line you up facing North; this is important because during a seance' the north end of the table would be left open. It was believed that this was a direction that made it easier for spirits to pass through the veil to where the living dwell.
     Shortly after taking occupancy while lying in bed facing the door, I began to see this darkness, a nothingness as if there were now less illumination there then previously emitted at a glance. At first thought, perhaps my sleepiness plays tricks with my eyes, but this happened the next night and the night after that. This thing invaded the space in the bathroom growing larger and more defined; as it did, my fear of it magnified with each glimmer of light it devoured with its ever pressing presence.
    Night after night it came revealing just a little more of its frightening exterior. Finally it fully manifested into what appeared to be a man goat atop; that lengthened into infinity with its ability to remove the illumination until it was darker then the shadows it lingers in. No good is what it is, this thing has come to thrive upon the fear it instills as it feeds upon the fear it creates.
     Having my grandmother to ask, I inquired as to what I could do. She said to me with great conviction that In our family we posses an ability I like to call " the gift" ; with this gift comes great responsibility for it allows you to hear, see, and communicate with the spirits of those who have gone on before us. This which you experience is a temptation, one that leads your spiritual soul down a darkened path with as much nothingness as seen when it appears to me.  It will remain unless I am strong and have faith that this is what is meant to be.
    It took me several nights before I had worked up my nerve to actually have a face off with this evil like entity that has come to suck the innocence from me. To overcome me and put out my light so that I would do its bidding in this world. Out from under the covers I came veraciously pulling them off my head; praying ,saying the power of God compels you to leave; my faith is my shield protecting me from your evil. It did not leave the first prayer but it left when it realized I would only serve prayer.
