A Ghostly Toddler

One night that seemed just as normal as any other, my younger brother and I were playing hide & seek. We had only one rule: Don't hide upstairs.
My brother was counting upstairs, I went down into the den and hid. A few seconds later I heard my brother say "CRYSTAL! NO hiding upstairs!"
Then I walked from the den and said "Robby, I'm right here." He looked at me, he looked so confused, then fear flushed his face. he told me he saw a little girl run up the stairs into my room.
A few years later I was swinging on my swing and looked at the back door and saw a girl in white staring at me. I started crying.
Tonight, my brother, my friend Brianna, her brother Zac, and I were having a seance in my room. It all of the sudden became cold. We kept hearing a noise, like a rattling. We then got blankets to get warm, and the candle blew out. We relit the candle, and that's when it all began.
Brianna thought she had a vision in which there was a little girl behind Robby. In a white dress. In my room. We never had told her about the little girl, and we kept questioning what she saw. Then I saw a face behind my brother's shoulder.
Then we all started crying. We couldn't stop. Then Brianna and I both saw, AT THE SAME TIME, a vision in which there was a young man in a blue uniform. We assumed he was the father of the girl, but when we thought of the man, we felt fear.
When I looked in the mirror, I SWORE I saw the girl's curls over my ears, my hair was up, certainly NOT in curls.
Brianna thought she saw the girl sitting on my bed, but then she thought she saw her fade away. Then Brianna felt a presence behind her. I looked at my door and saw a little girl, in a white dress, staring at her, then she faded away.
Brianna said I had a look of horror on my face right before she was about to ask me if there was someone behind her.
Then we all got scared, blew out the candles. We switched my light on and I asked Brianna right away to show me at the door how tall she thought the girl was, she pointed, and I almost collapsed. It was exactly the same length I've been seeing.
After that, we all come downstairs to look up things on Google and hope for answers...
We have none so far. And that is my Long Island ghost story.
