Here's the story Megan read on our Episode 15: Demons, Shadow People, and Portals, Oh My!
My daughter had an imaginary friend when she was 2-3 years old. She cannot remember anything about this now. One morning, she asked where the girl in closet went. She said she is sad and misses her mom. That her neck is “funny” because she fell down the basement stairs (which have always worried me because they are extremely steep) and that she wears a pretty dress and her skin is sparkly. She made mention of her a few times as a toddler and then just didn’t any longer.
In addition, I’m perpetually creeped out by an experience I had sleeping in our basement guest bedroom one night. I was asleep in the dark room and felt my daughter crawl in. I snuggled her, readjusted in bed and went back to sleep. In the morning, I woke up alone and went to breakfast. I asked my daughter about crawling in and she said she didn’t, she slept in her own bed all night. Did I dream the whole thing? Logic says yes, but I’ll never be sure…
