It was when I was about five years old. I was sleeping with my parents in an upstairs room, which had a window that lead to a balcony. I woke up at midnight and looked out of the window. Then I saw something white floating in the dark and thought it was a ghost. Though I was very frightened, I soon fell asleep again because I felt my parents would protect me. After that, I became frightened of ghosts when I was a child, but when I became an adult and thought what it could have been, I realized it was a bath towel drying on the balcony. :D

  • Hi Tam, :D

    I also experienced the similar thing when I was child, I think I was more than 7 yo. It was not a floating white in the dark, but always, something moving frightened me, especially when my parents left me alone at home. lol Most of kids afraid of dark. Do you agree?

    Nice story you share, Tam. I like it. ^^

    By the way, you can make this become ten sentences, actually.

  • when we were kids these things probably happen. but now, i think that this things happen only for those who have a lack in believing God.

  • Hi, Roman. Yes, midnight is horrible and mysterious time for children.

  • Hi Tam!

    I have never had the same situation as you described, but I know what you mean!

    It is easy to confuse the objects when it is dark. 

    That's why most magical things and actions in the fairy tales happens at night :)

    Thank you for sharing!
