An English man is at home at night when he hears footsteps upstairs. Thinking his young son was awake and wandering around, he walks up the staircase where he encounters a female apparition.
"In 2014, I was living with my then girlfriend (now wife) and our son in a forest house close to the center of Bolton in northwest England. The house is what we call a two-up two-down here because they have two rooms upstairs and two rooms downstairs. The stairs ran down the kitchen side of the wall that divided the two downstairs rooms.
My girlfriend was working on a course to become a veterinary nurse. For this, she had to work the 2pm to 11pm shifts. So there was just me and my son in the house. I had put him to bed a few hours before and was now downstairs washing the pot and pans. I heard footsteps on the landing and assumed it was my son. Thinking he had woken up and was now running around upstairs looking for us, as he was apt to do.
I dried my hands and prepared to go through the routine of putting him back to bed. But I noticed these were not the erratic footsteps of a child but the heavy deliberate footsteps of an adult. The footsteps began to descend the stairs. I turned to see not my son but a tall woman dressed in a long white gown. As her head came into view I could see she was well over six feet tall and had long blonde hair. The stairs curved to the left as they approach the ground. As this woman rounded the corner I saw her face. She looked odd. Her features were human but something was off about them. Like she was something imitating a human. As she took the last step towards the floor she vanished. I stood still in shock for a few moments but then plucked up the courage to go upstairs and check on my son. Thankfully, he was still fast asleep.
About half an hour later my girlfriend got home. I was still slightly shaken up but happy to see another real human. She wasn't all that surprised which was a bit unnerving. She had lived there for a few years before I met her and most people who visited experienced something in that house. Mostly knocks and bangs at all hours and ghost cats. The bangs could have been the neighbors to be fair. Having to tell people the cat they just saw run through the house isn't your cat is always a fun conversation. Thankfully, the full-body apparitions weren't all that common." TT
