I fell asleep pretty quickly and about 35 minutes after I fell asleep, I woke up to a text from my 13-year-old daughter.  The first text I missed, and it just said, “Mommy,” the next one that I woke up to said, “Mommy Help.”  So once again I ran down stairs to find my daughter lying in bed and very scared.  I asked her what was wrong and she said that there is a face in the television.  I looked, but I could not see anything.  She refused to look in the direction of the screen, and said that it was the scariest thing she had ever seen.  She just described it as a white face with no eyes, but “very scary.”  When I touched her she was trembling.  I really hate that she is going through this, and I know that she tries to make them go away, and isn’t really afraid.  She just does not like it when they are persistent and won’t just leave her alone. 

I sat with her for a while so that she could go to sleep, and of course I could hear the footsteps in the attic again. I have heard rodents and know what those sound like, but these are not rodents.  They are the sound of the footsteps of a large person. 

The other night we went up stairs to get bins from the attic.  I had a funny feeling in my gut and my daughter looked towards the back of the attic, and claims she saw a full apparition.  She said it was as if it were a real person standing there.  I decided we would come back up later when my husband got home, just in case it were a real person.  I have heard crazier stories. 

Well, that is all that has happened during the last week.  I do keep hearing them in the stairway, attic, and in my room, but have not seen what my daughter sees.  I only have that feeling that something else is present.  I try to speak to them, but no response so far.  We will let you know though.

• 28 Days Later – I thought this movie was pretty scary.  I tend to like those movies that are on the verge of being a real possibility.  This movie did not have any real big movie stars in it, but the acting was great, and it kept me on the edge of the couch…lol.  It was much better than I thought it would be.
• Carrie – Was a great scary movie for its time.  I remember being pretty scared as a kid watching this one.
• Texas Chainsaw Massacre – I didn’t see this movie until about five years ago, and the scary part about it was that there are probably towns just like this somewhere.  The bloody guts and gore scenes were really good too.
• Saw – This one and all of its following sequels are all good for giving you chills up and down your spine.  The whole idea behind this one is the scariest of them all.  I think the one of the worst ones was in the second or third one when the girl falls into the syring filled pit.  Yuck, I hate the thought of thousands of pins being stuck in me.
• Exorcist – This movie is the paranormal scary winner of them all.  I loved this movie, and as I said before, I first saw it when I was nine.  After that, it was very difficult for movies to scare me.  My favorite scene has always been when the demons make her head do a complete 360. 
• Silence of the Lambs – A ScaryGeek classic.  I may be a bit biased as I just love the acting in this one by Anthony Hopkins.  He is amazing, and so is this movie. 
• Pet Sematary – This movie was pretty scary, maybe not the best, but definitely enjoyed it.  I had just had kids when I saw it, and when the little boy gets run over in the beginning I cried.  Then he comes back and the scene in the hallway when he is dying and says, “no fair” just made me cry again.  I know, its supposed to be scary.
• Alien – Definitely scary, and very good.  Those Aliens are the scariest of all Aliens that have ever been created.  Even better than the Predator.  This movie had me on edge the whole time. 
• Hostile - This is a movie I have not heard too much about, but it scared me because I know that there are really places like this, and that is something that makes me sick and scared at the same time.  Good movie if you like blood and guts, severed hands, fingers, toes, heads, you name it.

Well, this is just a list of some of my favorites, I will try to get a list of more together and post again.  Have fun.

To celebrate my 40th Birthday, I wanted to find a very scary Birthday video to post, but finding a good video is definitely more difficult that it should be.  I did find this interesting, and scary music video though, and thought it would be a good one to share.  This is the music video I found on YouTube, by Blue – “The Birthday Massacre”….hope it scares you!  Happy Birthday to me!!
