So, a friend of mine has had an issue since he was a little kid, of seeing a girl standing in his room at night, appearing at random.
For a long time it used to scare the crap out of him, because the girl wouldn't talk, but instead make a choking sound, always with the smell of moss and rotten wood.
I found the concept quite interesting, since his back yard is connected to well over a hundred acres of woodland territory.

Apparently, a long time ago the property his house and neighborhood sits upon was once owned by a single land owner and even to this day, a majority of the land is set as uncharted territory in a nature preserve.

My head got to wandering in it's thought; a scary venture more often than not. lol.
I became so obsessed with this girl, I had to know more.

He told me as he got older the girl would walk around his house, more often then not, leading imh out to the treeline.
She would look at him with a face of upset, then disappear.

Well, with him being devoutly religious, he wanted nothing to do with it, but I want to know more.
So...
I decided to go on an adventure.

I went out into the woods with my scrying crystals and a copper dagger, trying to find anything I could on this girl and the trees that she must have come from. My venture lead me deep into the woods, so deep that I could barely see my way out.
That's about the time that I realized that I was standing in a giant faerie circle...

For those of you who don't know, a faerie circle in a natural circle made up of trees, bodies of water, rock and so on, believed by many to be natural places of power for the fair folk.
Often, people will seek out these places to do rituals of divine purpose, but sometimes not so much.

Anyways, here I am standing in this giant faerie circle of trees and I find myself getting this really gross feeling; a feeling that you would relate to being over in feces or other such nasties.
It was at that moment I knew- I knew that the girl from my friends dreams had died there...
About the same time I started hearing noises from the trees around and felt like I was being watched, so I quickly made my way out, with every step, the earth would sink in, as if trying to keep me there.
It's been a long time since I have felt a place with such energy and I must say it had me fairly disconcerted.

So, now I wonder...
Could it be that this girls body is somewhere in this forest and she wanted my friend to find her; is it at all possible that such could be like in the movies, with a ghost contacting the living to find itself closure by the discovery of lovely bones?

I want to get a research crew of witches and paranormal investigators to check the place out this summer, to see if we can find anything, because I think that with the way things felt, there is a lot to find.

Till then-

Your thoughts?

I guess it depends how psychic you are. You either had psychic impressions of this place, or you let your imagination creep you out.

Jonny, I understand your interest, but I'm wondering at the wisdom (given your recent troubles) of going out and seeking this sort of thing.

Once burned - twice shy, as the saying goes?

There are lots of dead people. There are lots of restless spirits. There are lots of other things as well. How much do you want interactions with them?

I think you're both right. Gizmo has a point, it might be bad for you to keep going around with these things, but, on the other hand, doing something good like helping this spirit rest might actually help you in the long run. A lot to ponder.

How interesting! Is there any way you can do some old fashioned research on the area? See if a missing children's report rings a bell? Often you'll find pictures with old clippings, perhaps you can show your friend and see if any pictures match the ghost? I would think that perhaps when you had that feeling of her dying there, maybe that's where her body is. Maybe she can't rest because she went missing, and no one ever found the truth of what happened to her. Her parents were probably out of their minds with worrying and that energy is keeping her here with the absolute MUST of having someone find her. She is probably lost in time and doesn't realize what year it is or that her parent's have passed away. She just feels the energy of their absolute despair of her missing and their constant hope of her one day coming home that she feels it necessary for someone to find her to put her parent's hope to rest. You could contact professionals and have that area dug up to see if they can find her body, find out who she is, and have her remains laid to rest with the rest of her family so she can finally be at rest and join them on the other side. Does she look like she's from the 1800's? I get a vision of a blond girl wearing an old fashioned kind of dress...maybe around 12 years old...possibly Emily? Just trying to tap in to see if I can help....

Thank you, Gizmo, I actually have thought of that.
More often than not, I do have this tendency to want to know more than I should, biting the hand that feeds me, or playing the the metaphorical fire. Still, just the same, whether I seek it out or not, it is always around me and I am still in contact with the other plains.
In truth, yes, I have played around with a lot of things that I shouldn't have in the past, but just the same, I am affected on a daily basis by spiritual boundaries.
I don't want to make a mess of things, that is for certain, but I feel like I am already knee deep, so why not walk around some more, if no one else is there to guide me?

M'Lady, I must ask as to what you mean, when you say that interacting with the spirit to find solace, could help me?

To be honest, I don't even know if the girl that my friend sees has any relation to what I felt in the woods. For all I know, it could be a different cause, like a malevolent entity that caused the girl harm in the first place??
As mentioned, I had a really gross feeling when I was there. It lead me to think that many thing had happened in that area...
For all I know, the girl of my friends dreams could have been a shadow ghoul, or something of the like, trying to guide him into the woods to become lost?

Chandra, my dear, I have thought of the same things as suggested and I am currently seeking out old reports of missing female children, but it is harder than it might seem, I've come to learn. lol.
As for what this girl looks like, to identify where she may have originated; that is an unsettling thought in itself, for she has always appeared naked, with tattered hair.
No way to identify of what time she came from.

wow...that is unsettling. probably a rape/murder victim from her appearance. that is difficult to not have a time from when she was living....very sad.
