Story of my family’s encounter with a ghost pretending to be my mom
The following story were told to me by my grandmother a few years back. She was visiting us a few days ago when I asked her to re-tell us the story. I don’t know if it’s true or not, but I believe her, being a person who believes in ghosts, spirits, god etc. It goes as follows:
It was when my mom was in 6th or 7th grade. The year was 1991, I guess. All my grandma’s daughters (a total of 5 sisters, including my mom) plus her son were home.
My granddad was at work at the time. It was around 9 pm at night, all my aunts, including my mom, and my uncle were all huddled in the bedroom with my grandma.
Then, there was a knock on the door. My grandma, being the brave woman she was, went to answer the knock. Before she opened the door, she asked who it was.
And to her shock, someone said “It’s me. Let me in”. The only catch was, it was my mom’s voice. ah ma (that’s what I call my grandma) was shocked to hear it. It was obviously not possible that it would be my mom, as she was sitting inside.
Now, after hearing the voice, my ah ma knew something had to be done to protect her kids. So, she told everyone to grab a weapon. When everyone was armed with either kitchen knives or long wooden sticks , they went to the door and my ahma shouted “WHO’S THERE? I KNOW YOU’RE NOT MY DAUGHTER!”.
There was silence, and then, they heard a very, very, VERY creepy laugh. WAY creepier than any horror movie.
They waited a few minutes, then my mom, being the oldest, got fed up and opened the door. There was no one there, except a piece of thread worn on the feet.
The thread was not there before, my ahma told me, and the front gate was locked. Everyone was spooked out and they went to bed. Nothing has happened since.
My mom doesn’t remember anything, but I guess its a given, since its been 31 years since this incident. She’s 43 now
