I was able to finish my secondary education where we used to live. I then decided to take up my college degree in one of the colleges in the city. Since the school is just near, about ten to fifteen minutes walk, I would always see that intriguing house at the end of our street. It has a tall gate and concrete wall that no one dares to pass by though I haven't seen a guard guarding the place.
I've researched and asked one of the Barangay Official about the history of that certain house which is different from the other houses on that street. He told me that the owner's relatives are now settled in the United States and leaving the house on the supervision of a caretaker. The real owners are already dead and were buried on top of the house where you can see a certain rooftop. I wonder if there's a possibility or the government would allow that but well, what could you expect if it's already decades ago? I've heard lots of freaky things happening in that house though I really don't believe in any of them.
My faith about ghosts changed after we transferred in one of the apartments near that house. It was the last vacant apartment and was always ready for occupancy for years whenever I pass by. We don't have any choice as my mother thinks it is a wonderful spot as it is near our school especially near a mall for her shopping activities. I have an access to the haunted house' beautiful view through my window. I really don't have that ability to see unexplainable things but one day when I was alone and reviewing I noticed a white figure in the window of that house. I just ignored it and kept my concentration on my math. I looked at my alarm clock on my bedside table and it's already 6:30 in the evening. Suddenly, I felt the unusual coldness in my room though I'm using a fan. I stood up to close the window when suddenly a white image passed outside the window! I hurriedly closed the door and it seems that my whole body turned numb as I can't even move my fingers. I then heard a female voice weeping but sounds kind of mad. It was saying something I can't understand at first since I'm still in shock! Few seconds later, I understood what it says, "Get out of here, you should never be here! This is my place! Get out!"
I was really frightened but never forgot to pray the Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory Be many times while I'm rushing myself downstairs and out the gate. I've seen one of my neighbors and he asked if I'm ok, I couldn't even speak. He then guessed that I must've seen one. He told me it's always the reason why that apartment is always vacant as no one can stand the presence of that ghost. He accompanied and comforted me as I wait for my mom and sister to arrive. We then searched and found a new house and left that apartment.
