This all started when i was a kid. I’ve lives in the same house ever since i was born and as i was growing up i always experienced weird things happening in my house that i never understood until i was older. Anyone that lives here knows that miami dates back to the 1800’s and things have changed so much since then. It started when i was probably in kindergarten or in pre school. I grew up religious so my mom would always play prayer music when we went to bed every night. One night when i was getting ready for bed, i was laying down in bed waiting for my mom to get my bed time routine ready and she starts playing the music. All of a sudden i feel my entire body sink into the bed and i wasn't able to move a muscle but i was able to speak. What was once peaceful music sounded like it was painful to hear. I can’t describe how it was because it was so long ago… but it was not pleasant. I kept on screaming to my mom “turn it off turn it off” and she was shocked and worried and kept on asking why and little me was just in a panic because it was just so painful to hear and I didn't know what was going on. She ended up turning off in confusion and then all the pressure that i felt in my entire body was lifted off. I was breathing heavily and couldn’t wrap my mind around what just happened. She played the music again an hour later and we just went to bed like we normally would. Fast forward to about 2008. I was in middle school, my older brother had a CD collection and we had one of those radio CD players that had 3 slots for 3 CD’s. One of them inside the CD player was system of a down. I remember i was alone in my house that night and all the lights in the house were off except my moms room light. I was heading to my brothers room to see if i could find anything cool. I don’t remember if i did lol but i got out from his room and all of a sudden the 3rd track from the cd started playing ON FULL BLAST. I hurried back to see if it was anyone and it wasn't. I was still the only person in that house. I was confused but also very terrified. Fast forward to high school i would stay up really late at night because i mean, what teenager would go to bed on time. I remember sometimes i would just talk to myself or say my thoughts out loud to myself pretty often but one night, at around 1-2 am i remember i was getting tired enough to go to sleep and i said to myself “alright time to go to bed. Good night” and then in my war, i heard an disembodied voice whispering “goodnight”. I still remember feeling the sensation when someone whispers in your ear to this day. That was 10+ years ago. Theres a lot of other times where i would ask my mom in between these moments if there was anyone with a child who lived here and she would answer, no there was no one with a child who lived here. Just an older couple. This house was built in the 80’s. I would find that so strange because i would always feel this image of this girl in like a lacy nice picnic dress around. I would also heard humming sometimes coming from my moms room as a kid. I thought it was a woman sometimes and other times a girl. Fast forward to 2022. God after this was when i really understood spirits. I would spend a lot of my time at my exes house but when i was not, i would sleep in my house. Everything was normal until about around September, October time. Thats when so many things started happening. I remember it was like a switch went on or something because one night nothing happened and then other nights after that i would slowly feel a presence getting stronger. I would talk to it like, “please let me sleep” and i always had a feeling like it was saying “okay”. It was like that until a certain point. I shared with my good friend that is a psychic medium at the time that i felt like my house was haunted. We would joke about it and around this time, i also knew a lot about spirit communication and crossing them over thanks to this guy on youtube called huff paranormal. I had a lot of apps to talk to spirits and i remember one night i was like “if you let me sleep tonight i will talk to you in the morning”. I think this was a little girl because she was a bit stubborn. I had to say it a few times until it felt eerily still and quiet. The next day i did. I started up the spirit communication app and I was asking her about her name, how she died and if there was anything i can get her to make her feel okay. She didn't want to talk about how she died but most spirits don't. I kept on getting “m” until getting her full name. I kinda forgot her name so i couldn’t tell you what it was now because that was a year ago and i wanted to forget about it because how fucking traumatic it was. I remember hearing pears as a treat or offering and historically, children back in the day would love pears so one night i remember i left out a cup of water and two cut pears. That night and a few nights after that she left me alone. It started to feel safe again but then she came back. I remember one night after not being able to sleep for a few nights and feeling super delirious i asked ny mom if i could sleep with her. I haven't done that in YEARS. I was able to sleep that night and very deeply. My mom wakes up early so I remember at 8 am i tried to move to my bed and i remember seeing this black floating figure above where i sleep. I really think it was her just like.. saving my space or waiting for me or something. I started up the app again half asleep and i was like “hello” and i heard “salem!” And i was like “im really tired and i really want to go back to sleep. I have work later can you please let me sleep” and all i heard back was “sure” and then it was still again. I was able to go back to sleep. One night after trying to ignore it i finally gave in and was like okay, i need to figure out how to make her go into the light. I did some research and then i tried. It was slightly successful. Almost like I dislodged something. I tried again after work one night being extremely exhausted and then it actually worked. The air was still, it was peaceful and quiet. Sure my paranoia really shook everything up and i was so scared to sleep after that and bought holy water and salt just in case but nothing after that happened. I really felt like there was someone who died there and she couldn’t cross over. Spirits always go to people who are sensitive to energy and i always was so it was no surprise that she always pestered me.
