The Lady in the Red Dress

When I was 7 years old, a spirit used to visit me. She was a woman who wore a beautiful red dress. She had piercing blue eyes, ivory skin, and dark brown hair. I used to see her perfectly clearly like she was a living, breathing person.

She told me that she was a witch and tried to teach me things, but when I didn't cooperate, she would get angry and call me names. She told me that she would give me nightmares, and I always had them. Sometimes I would wake up with scratches and bruises, and so would my sister, and she would tell me that she was the one who did it. A few times my mother heard her screaming and laughing in my room.

The visitations became more and more frequent until I turned twelve. She told me that she was going to leave now, because teaching me anything was worthless and that she might return someday. I haven't seen her since, but I hope I never do.
