First of all this is not just a true story, it is an on going
occurence. This tale is long but for those of you who read our story, and
respond with any help, we thank you in advance. I am a student at Loyola
University Chicago and am living in one of the newer dorms here (3 years
old), named Simpson. I will from here on in refer to our dorm as
Simpson. I also live on the second floor, a floor in which for the past
month and a half has been the realm of strange occurences. We ignored
them for awhile, until only last Friday, when we made contact with an
entity. The contact is backed up by witnesses and PHYSICAL
documentation. This is the story.
I have changed the names of several of the keys players in this
story at their request. Steve and John live down the hall from me. For
the past month they have experienced strange happenings in their room. A
phone which sits on a small table has repeatedly flew across the room.
While Steve and John were in the room. In one occasion, Steve told a
friend, Autumn, that he thought it had to be the window near the phone
causing it to fall off. After all why wouldn't anything else fall?
Within 5 minutes as Steve and Autumn talked in the room, another phone,
across the room from the first, crashed to the floor. Other strange
occurences up to that point included, falling CD racks, and on one
occasion, an entire side of the room being trashed when no one was in the
room for a weekend. One other occurences happened when a lamp shade was
removed from a lamp, and over and over reappeared on the lamp when NO ONE
could have entered the room.
This leads to last weekend. On Friday night 6 members of our
dorm were bored and decided to play with a Ouija board in Steve and
John's room. What happened next has led some individuals in our dorm to
sleep with Bibles, and pictures of Jesus in front of their rooms. (I am
sorry if I am telling this story in a melodramitic fashion, but it is
true.) Steve and John asked if the ghost was present. They were holding
the pointer. The answer was yes. Over the course of hours, the following
was learned: the ghosts name is Kale, he refuses to answer other
background questions, he knows about many things going on in our dorm but
resides in Steve and John's room. Many intresting things were asked. He
was asked if there was a spirit in my friend Eric's room. He said no,
but when repededly pressed he answered Yes, Tekmo. This is funny because
my friend plays an old game, Tecmo Bowl on his Nintendo. He is
addicted. The ghost was trying to be funny and when asked how he new
about Tecmo Bowl he said he heard it from Steve talking. This is
intresting because it explains why Tecmo was spelled Tekmo. Other things
were asked that only one person in the room could know, and they were not
allowed to have their hands on the pointer. The answers were always
correct. But it doesn't stop there. A candle had been lit and it was
dead still at the beginning of the session with the Ouija. The room was
still with all the vents off. When Steve would speak the candle flame
would instantly bend 90 degrees toward him. When Steve asked Kale to
have the candle flame point up, it did. When someone else spoke the
candle would bend towards them. At the end of the Ouija session (if
there is intrest I can transcribe the session as a posting) Steve went to
blow the candle out, but could not. No matter how hard they tried it
would not go out until the 5th or 6th try when Steve's face was almost
in the flame blowing. They said goodbye to Kale, for the moment. But it
wasn't the end by any means.
The next night after checking out books from our science libary
to understand how to perform a sayonce (please excuse my spelling.) They
regathered once again and linked hands. A microcassette recorder used to
tape classes was placed in the middle of the circle. Many questions were
asked and once again the candle flame moved towards the person speaking.
But no answers were heard. UNTIL the tape was rewound and played. This
is a translation of the sections that are revelant:
Eric: Who do you wish to speak to Kale?
(Flame moves toward Steve)
Eric (to Steve): Just you.
KALE: YES! (Very smooth strong whisper, sounds like it's right next
to the recorder while the people sound distant)
Steve: Just me.
Later after repeated questions on why a guitar had been knocked over:
Eric: Why did it fall Kale?
John: Why?
KALE: (sigh and heavy breathing as if frustrated.)
(Eric and John keep asking and the breathing continues until the
questioning stops)
Later:
Steve: Why do you always knock things over?
Why don't you knock things over when I ask?
(Nothing is happening but the following sequences happens quickly)
Steve: Do you only do things when you want to? (pause)
KALE: I SUPOSE SO. (sounds bored, middle age, very distinct voice)
Steve: Or only on demand? (remember Steve said the two questions
quickly and the voice can only be heard on the tape.)
So this is my story here at Loyola. It has been two days since
the last attempted contact. We will again, and will update you on our
situation. Kale says he is not evil, he says two other non-evil spirts
inhabit our dorm too. Is what we are doing dangerous? Has anyone heard
of things like this happening? Thanks for listening.
