My friend and I were hanging out at another friends' house, we'd already been there for a few hours and things were calming down. I sat at one end of her couch in the living room while our other friend was sat at the opposite end, we were both falling asleep. I had my eyes closed and was close to passing out, but then I saw a lady standing at the other end of the room, staring at us, but my eyes were closed? Naturally, terrified of anything remotely spooky, I sat up and was breathing heavy, but at the exact time I had shot up scared, so did my other friend that was on the couch. We looked at each other and sort of exchanged these broken sentences, I asked her if she saw it too, and she said 'that lady', so we both ran out of the house and refused to go back in.
It/she didn't feel threatening, I don't really know what the feeling around her was. She was just watching us, I didn't notice any emotion on/around her, and our third friend didn't see her at all (it was her house, maybe that has something to do with it, I don't know). She wore an old, common looking dress, earlier than the 1900s if I had to guess. And she had dark hair pulled back from her face.
I'm a huge skeptic, and this is the only situation in my life that I can't logic out of. We were both falling asleep, eyes shut, and saw the same lady at the same time. I've never had any experiences after that, and never went back to that house either. I've always wondered why she was there. I looked up the house and it was built in 1976 with only two owners before them, so it seems unlikely she was connected to the house. Maybe the area? The other friend that was on the couch, she said her mom is a Medium, so I thought maybe the ghost lady was drawn to her and somehow I just ended up being an extra bystander.
