paranormal.about.com — When I was about 12 years old - six years ago - the most amazing paranormal events happened to me that I shall never forget. The story starts on a school day, where my best friend came in, sat at her usual place, but she seemed "disturbed" about something. I asked her about it, and she merely said, "Last night I saw a ghost."
Eventually, I got more information out of her. The ghost was a young-looking, Victorian-dressed girl with long hair that was neither light nor dark. Naturally, I thought she was joking. But the story develops. One day, after several of these sightings, she produced her notebook with the word "Hello" scrawled on the cover. "This is obviously a joke," I thought.
But the next day, she ran to me, gasping hysterically that someone flicked the lights on and off in the toilets and turned the automatic hand-dryers on and off, although there was no one else there. She also claimed to have had a long written conversation with this ghost, who turned out to be called Alice, the previous night. Her method was to write her message, place the book out of her sight for a few seconds, and there would be a reply.
Eagerly, we decided to try it out in the classroom. We wrote a message, placed the book under the desk, and, to our astonishment, there was a reply. We wrote more and more messages to Alice, and more and more replies came back. She wrote and drew on our books, and also seemed to be a bit of a prankster.
I remember one day, our teacher (whom neither of us liked) was conducting a lesson. My friend suddenly whispered to me, "Do you see her? That's Alice." Behind the teacher was a faint, yet obvious shadow of a girl, dancing and waving her arms about, kind of mocking him. There was no one outside at the time to make the shadow, and there certainly wasn't someone inside the classroom either!
Another trick she used to pull was whenever we lost a small item, she would give it back to us by putting it in the mouth of my pencil case. (My pencil case was of the Rainbow character Zippy, who has a zip-up mouth.) Sometimes she would do this as a game.
For several months this went on; Alice was our secret yet amazing friend. I still have one of the notebooks we used, and to this day I cannot believe what happened. Eventually, Alice left. We knew she wasn't there to stay forever. When she finally departed, it was truly sad. Her last note was an essay, basically outlining her life, and how she enjoyed her time with us.
