Real Life Ghost Story:

[Aquila]

This will be very short, but it really was creepy for me and my wife.

We were driving last night after going out to dinner and we were just listening to music "chatting". My three year old son was seated in the baby seat in the back seat. That's when he said he wanted to go to home to see his "brother".

It amused me and my wife because Noah's an only child. So my wife asks him, "Who's your brother?"

Noah answers, "The little boy in my room."

My wife asks, "What's his name?"

With that my little boy paused for a minute and said, "Biwwey", his way of saying, "Billy".

Chills raced up and down my spine and arms, my wife held her breath, chills obviously all over her. The "static" of our uneasiness was nearly tangible in the car. That's when my wife broke the uneasy silence with, "Okay, that was spooky."

Most don't know that when I was two years old I had a 7 year old brother named Billy. Billy died in a hit and run accident just after he had turned 7. My wife and I never really talk about it. I mean, I was only two years old and I don't even remember him. But what's odd is that my little boy doesn't have any friends named "Billy" and I have no idea where he came up with the idea of having an invisible "brother" named Billy.

Oh well... that's my first ghost story of the season.

God bless.
