The Top Hat Ghost

I was about five and it was very dark (well it was at night).

I was lying down on my bottom bunk with my nine year old sister on the top. when I turned around to find a pair of legs about three inches away from my face. at first I thought that it was my dad.

I kicked the top bunk to wake my sister up.as she started to have a go at me for waking her up it went all silent. I said 'what is the matter'. about 1 minute later she replied 'there is a man standing right in front of me'. she shut her eyes and so did I as we opened our eyes the strange figure that had not long been standing by our bed had disappeared.

the next morning my sister and I were talking about it.

we have NEVER forgotten it since.
