"The Ghost by the bed 2"


"The Ghost by the bed 2"

Every time I go to Baguio  I still remember the incident at Teachers camp where a ghost impersonated my friend and laid on the bed next to mine.There was another encounter though and this one though not in Teachers camp was also in Baguio City.

It was my first day as a freshman of UP College Baguio. My Mom and I went up together because I had to enroll and she had a business meeting. Arriving early(around 4:30am) in the City of Pines we decided to stay at one of the hotels near the old Maharlika building so we could still sleep before 8am.(The time we were told the College would open).  

When we got to our rooms my mom chose the bed closest to the wall , lay down and promptly went to sleep. Having nothing else to do I did the same. 

I woke up because I was feeling really excited and looked at my watch. It was 6am. I was feeling a little hungry so I turned to my Mom to ask her if she wanted to have some breakfast. I turned and saw something. It was a ghost.

It was a man who didn't seem to notice me but lay on the queen sized bed right next to my mom. There was a ghost in the room  , not a few feet from me and I found myself unable to move.Should I throw something toward my mom wake her up? Should I start screaming at the ghost? what would I do if it turned towards me? 

The decision on what to do was solved by the ghost itself. It slowly turned to face my mom.And deliberately hugged her. I stood up and ran toward my mom just as the apparition faded. My Mom woke up shaking. I told her that a ghost just hugged her.

My mom started praying and speaking in tongues as she was was prone to do when she was upset.Though there was no feeling of malice or danger my mom decided to check out and never go back there again.
