A Body In My Bed

by Murray
(Massapequa, Long Island)

There's no ghost in this story, but something happened to me a long time ago that, for a brief instant, scared me half to death.

I woke up one night when it was still dark in my room. I was face down on the bed with my arms wrapped around my pillow. I started to move my right arm to get more comfortable and suddenly felt something very cool to the touch.

At first I didn't know what is was. But I felt around and discovered it had fingers. It didn't take long for me to realize that there was a cold, dead hand in my bed.

I freaked and let out a scream. As I jumped up to get away from it, it moved. And that's when I realized it was my very own hand. I didn't know it was mine because it had fallen asleep an become numb.

There's nothing more scary then waking up to a body in your bed and I was so glad this one was my own.

Same happened to me last night. I woke up and moved my hand and felt someones hand on my chest. I yelled "HEY!!" and after a few seconds I realized my arm was numb.

I would have sworn it was someone else, so freaky!

BEDROOM GHOST / HOST
by: JOYCE

I HAD AN EXPERIENCE ABOUT A MONTH AGO .. MY ROOM WAS DARK, EXCEPT FOR THE LIGHT THAT WAS ON IN THE KITCHEN. THAT PROVIDES A DEFFERED LIGHT. I ACTUALLY FELT "SOMEONE" GETTING ON MY BED AND THEN LAYING NEXT TO ME, AND AS THIS WOKE ME ENOUGH THAT I LOOKED AT IT .. IT WAS A DARK FIGURE WITH A VERY SLIM BUILD. THOUGH I WAS WOKE FROM A SOUND SLEEP,WHATEVER GOT ON MY BED HAD SUBSTANCE TO IT/WEIGHT.IT DIDNT DO ANYTHING EXCEPT JUST LAY THERE.... I OPENED MY EYES AND I DID SEE IT LAYING THERE ON ITS BACK ...

I KNEW THE MOMENT IT GOT ON THE BED AS I PEERED AT IT THAT IT WAS NOT AMONGST THE LIVING NOR MY BOYFRIEND, BUT WAS JUST LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO LAY??? IT DIDNT BOTHER ME NOR SCARE ME - HAD LOTS OF PARANORMAL EXPERIENCES IN THE PAST.

IN THE MORNING I DID ASK MY BOYFRIEND IF HE HAD CAME TO BED AND HE SAID NO ... THIS ONLY CONFIRMING WHAT I FELT AND SAW.

Battle in Bed
by: Liz W.

I had the same thing happen, only I was sleeping on my back. I woke up feeling something laying on my chest. With my right hand I reached up and felt someone else's hand across my chest which completely freaked me out as I was sleeping alone. I grabbed the hand and threw it off me, only to be hit in the face a second later. By then the blood had started to flow back into my left hand because it was starting to tingle, and of course was the culprit behind the whole thing. I felt really stupid, especially when I think about throwing my own hand up in the air only to have it hang for a second before crashing back down on my face.

oh man

i totally know how you feel, it's happened to me once or twice. Or sometimes it feels like there's a spider or something else and it's just a lint ball or something. Nothing worse than waking up to that.

That would have scared me too!
by: Bill

Good story, Murray. I'm glad it was your own hand too. Things would have messy otherwise.
