Go to Sleep My Little One,.... My Real Ghost Story.

Laura S. Baker, Jefferson County WI

It was the middle of the night (of course it was, don't all ghost stories happen in the middle of the night?), when I heard what sounded like my little one playing with a friend in her room. Half awake, I opened her bedroom door.

I saw my little girl with toys set up around her and asked her why she was up playing in the middle of the night? She was quite young at the time, around 4 from my best recollection. My little one simply replied; "She won't let me go to sleep! She keeps on making me play. I told her I was tired!"

Just as my little girl said this, I stepped back to let another little girl pass through the door. It was the strangest feeling. It was just an automatic response. I didn't think about what I was doing, or even really realize exactly what was happening. I just did it.

She had long hair, light golden brown in color and an old fashioned below the knee length cream night gown on. As she passed me, heading into my bedroom doorway, I reassuringly moved my hand toward her lower back and motioned to pat her on her back and said; "Go ahead, off to bed."

Without missing a beat, I went to my little girl and tucked her back in. Kissing her on the forehead and said; "Goodnight, go to sleep my little one". It wasn't until I walked back toward my room, that the reality of what just happened truly hit me. I woke my husband up and told him of the event. He told me I was crazy.

The next morning when my little girl asked me where her friend went, he didn't think I was quite so crazy. Never before and never since then has anything like this happened. But that night, I have no doubt we had a visitor,... of some sort.
