My son has been telling me of his imaginary friend for a couple years now. He talks of this friend like he is really there. Being the concerned parent I am, I did some research on imaginary friends and how they effect young children. From what I could find, imaginary friends are good for kids. It is shown that children who have imaginary friends are more mature and socially skilled then their peers that do not have imaginary friends. I figured it was a good thing and even encouraged it at times.
What happens if this imaginary friend is not so imaginary? I mean, what if some kids are really having a conversation with someone or something that us adults cannot see? I believe this to be the case with my son.
Two nights before Christmas Eve, I was sitting in my study, aka Weirld Room, talking on the phone. I had sent my son and his brother up to take their showers and get ready for bed. They went and used my room cause my bathroom is cooler (Jacuzi tub and such). Anyways, it was taking them way too long, so I decided to go up and see what was happening. When I turned to go up the stairs, I seen what looked like a boy run from my room to my sons room. Weird right? The boy was about 4 feet tall wearing what looked like a black and white shirt and jean type pants. The boy looked like he had dark hair. As I got to the top of the stairs, I went into my sons room first to see if anything, or anyone was there. I found nothing.
I went into my room, the oldest boy was sitting on my bed watching TV, my son was sitting in the tub playing. I asked the oldest if there was anyone else up here. He told me no, but that he just felt a could breeze like a window was left open. I went into the bathroom to talk to my boy. He said he was playing with his imaginary friend named, Boy. I asked if that was his real name, my son said no, but that is what he calls him. I asked where he was now. My son said he left cause you were coming and he didn't want to get caught.
Very weird. So maybe my sons imaginary friend is not so imaginary. I decided to try to run my own ongoing investigation to prove the existence of this friend. Which may turn out to be harder than I first anticipated. Those of you that know me, know that I don't get invited on to many ghost hunting trips. I have only seen two ghost/entity type things since I have been in this field. I usually don't see much activity on ionvestigations that I go on. Kind of like the things we are looking for stay hidden when I am around. Been like that my whole life. Every 'haunted' place I go to, it seems the activity is minimal when I come around. Maybe its my aura or something. I don't know.
Let me give you a little background on my son. He wants to be a paranormal investigator. The kid is shy, but does not fear the paranormal at all. He was extremely ill when he was a kid. In fact, he even 'passed' when I was holding him in the hospital, only to be 'revived' by the nurses and doctors. He is 6 years old now, been healthy for over 2 years, due to lots of prayer and a medical miracle. I think he has seen the other side and sees those that we can't. That may also be that kids brain activity is way higher than adults and that may be helping him to see what we can't too.
I started my own investigation. Staying up late, trying to see things, hear things, get readings on my EMF, record some voices, etc. Things have been almost nil. I had one spike up on my EMF, but it could have been anything. The investigation seemed to be stagnant. Maybe I need my boy here to see him again. I had company with me this weekend, so my boy and I didn't get a chance to try to bring his friend out again.
I did have an 'encounter' today with the friend. My son had left to go stay with his mother and the company we had at my house had left. I was going around straightening things up around the house. Cleaning up the normal messes. I was in my sons room picking up toys and things when I heard one of his race cars in his closet start up. I thought that was weird. I opened his closet door and turned on the light. The light blew as soon as I turned it on and the closet was cold when I went in. As I entered, the toy stopped making noise and I felt a rush go by me. The closet felt warmer right after I felt that rush. I am excited, as this is the closest encounter I have had with a ghost/entity.
To prove the temp change, I have setup a thermometer in my sons closet. The probe is in the middle of the closet and the readout is right outside the closed door. It will record highs and lows, I should have a good readout of the temp change if 'Boy' decides to come back and play. I am going to continue my investigation and try to prove that my sons friend exists. I will post findings and updates as my investigation goes on.
Stay tuned to Weirld and stay Classy Dayton. :-)
