Child's 'IMAGINARY FRIEND' Proven to be Real!

A child had an 'imaginary friend,' a monk, who he would have conversations with for years. No one believed him until his aunt had an encounter with the spirit. A former monastery once stood there.

I received the following account:

"When I was a young child, I had an imaginary friend who I would sit up with at night and speak to at length. My mother would have to come in every night and tell me to go to bed to much protest until she said goodnight to my friend as well. This went on for years, I would speak to my friend, a monk, a dark-cloaked figure who had no real features I can remember, but would sit on the end of my bed quite peacefully.

This went on for so long that my mother got concerned, as I wasn't growing out of the phase of having an imaginary friend, so she had me 'checked' from the neck up, to which I was proven to be as perfectly sane as any ordinary child.

The paranormal part of this is that no one else ever saw him, until one night one of my aunts stayed over, and I had to give up my room for her.

In the dead of the night, she screamed the house awake, ran down the stairs so quick she missed a step, fell down the stairs, and nearly broke her ankle, just a very nasty sprain if I correctly recall. While waiting for her to calm down, she apparently exclaimed about a dark figure in my room with her.

In the midst of all this, she refused to go back upstairs and I was kicked from the sofa back to my room, to which a groggy me just said, "Told ya. Come on Ben, time for bed," with a sense of elation of being proven sane.

Later research into the house revealed we lived on the grounds of a former monastery.

We moved that summer and I never saw my friend again. It was in a suburb of Chicago, Illinois." G
