My Grandmother

Hi, my name is Kate and I now live in New Albany Indiana but was born in New York.  I do not know if it makes any difference or not where I was born but I have been able to see and hear and talk to ghosts since before I was able to talk and they have talked to me too.

 

This happened about 5 or 6 years ago in my grandmother's old beach house in Normandy Beach, NJ.  Now she and died two months before this of gangrene caused by unattended diabetes and the doctor cut of her left leg in an effort to stop the gangrene from spreading but it didn't work.  So that January, I think it was, she died.  I had been over her house many times since I was a small child.  We would watch TV together, etc. and as she got older, I kept her company as much as I could, given the circumstances.

 

Two months or thereabouts after she died, I went back to the beach house in order to take back some items I had left that were mine.  The house was quiet and eerie but I ignored the feeling.  I was used to being alone and it did not bother me.  I walked through the front door and went to the hallway that was connected to the kitchen/dining room and there I saw my grandmother standing at the other end of the short corridor.  In one hand she was hold the leg that had been cut off and she was glaring at me.  She looked quite solid.  "uhm...hi?"  I said, staring at her in shock.  "What are YOU doing here?" she hissed.  'GET OUT!" With that she waved her severed leg at me and surged forward, shouting at me that I was an ingrate and should not be in her house.  I got scared, needless to say, and ran for the door, forgetting to go look for the items I left behind, deeming them unnecessary.  She followed me to the front door but did not pursue me after I slammed it shut.  

 

When I looked back from a safe distance away, I saw her face through the window and she was still scowling.  I have not returned there, though I still wonder why she seemed mad at ME since I was the only one who liked to spend time with her.

 

Thank you for this opportunity.

Kate Pratt
