Short Scary Story- Church trip nightmare
The only time where I am pretty certain that I saw a ghost/something
supernatural was on a church youth group trip I took in early high
school. It was an all-girls trip where we stayed at a beach house in
Wilmington, NC for the weekend. In the middle of the second night we
were there, I woke up to one of the other girls staying in the room
screaming in her sleep. I sat up, looked over, and saw a girl standing
over her bed and right by where she was sleeping. At first, I thought it
was just a girl who stayed in another room at first, but once I looked
more closely, it wasn't. I was definitely wide awake and laid back down
as I watched her walk around the bed. I noticed that there was what
looked like a red and whited striped towel on the wall (which was not
there when we went to sleep), and the thing that really freaked me out
was that the mirror facing the two beds was pitch black. Even in
darkness, you can still see somewhat of a reflection in a mirror, but
not this one, it was completely black. No reflection. The girl noticed
that I was looking at her — she turned around and made the nastiest,
snarliest face at me. I still remember the slits of her eyes giving me
that evil glare. My entire body ran cold and I began to shake, as I
start screaming that there's a ghost. This doesn't wake up the girl who
was shouting in her sleep, but it does wake up the other 2 girls in the
room, who say go back to sleep. The ghost-girl doesn't disappear. She
stands there placidly at the end of the other bed and watches us as one
girl tells me to calm down. I start crying and hide under the covers
until I manage to fall asleep. In the morning, I was so relieved to wake
up and see the mirror back to normal and no towel hanging on the wall.
Of course, I am all "ghost! ghost! there was a ghost!" in the morning,
to which I receive rolled eyes and chidings of "Christians don't believe
in ghosts, and you shouldn't either" (eff that, you need a better
reason than that). One of the girls who I woke up starts laughing,
saying she thought it was so silly of me. I run through my story -
creepy girl, black mirror, red and white towel on the wall. At the
mention of the towel, she stops and gives me a funny look, a look that
clearly said to me that she did see something when I woke her up. I
didn't say anything, but after that, if [my ghost] was brought up, she
quickly changed the conversation.
