  • Even as a Child, I Knew
    May 14 2025
    It begins at her then-boyfriend’s childhood home, where she experiences two separate instances of being slapped on the head by an unseen force—while lying against a solid wall. Later, she learns of a man who died tragically nearby, deepening the mystery.
    In 2019, during what was meant to be a relaxing river trip in Texas, she wakes in the middle of the night to a terrifying presence she believes was demonic—an encounter so disturbing she’s only spoken of it once since.
    Finally, in 2022, while doing laundry in her garage just after her father moved out, she locks eyes with a full-bodied apparition watching her from behind a wall—solid, detailed, and unnervingly curious. These events, together with a sensitivity to energy and spirit, form a haunting timeline of unexplained phenomena doesn't look for, but endures with quiet strength and faith.
