  • The Final Breath: A Strange Presence Before a Family Death
    When she was eleven years old, she traveled to Georgia with her family to visit her great uncle, who was dying from advanced dementia. During a family prayer at his bedside, she opened her eyes and saw something she still can't explain: a massive, dark figure leaning over him.
    The figure seemed to notice her.

  • Monster in the Kitchen & The Hanging Figure (Two True Paranormal Stories)
    A quiet afternoon of homework turns unsettling when a towering human figure appears behind a sheet separating a dining room from the hallway. Gabrielle assumes it's a family member playing a prank, but the figure disappears without footsteps, doors opening, or any obvious explanation. Then, years later, a four-year-old begins screaming at something invisible in the kitchen and describes it as being the same height as the doorway. 
    After two family members passed away inside a home in Edinburg, Texas, one family began experiencing strange events they still can't explain. It included night terrors and a child screaming at something invisible in a dark hallway. But that wasn't all. There was a possible doppelgänger and an unsettling shadow figure. This true scary story explores the memories that have followed Anna into adulthood.
