The Schoolgirl's Spirit

Around the 1st of March last year my friend and I decided to scheme class. We went to St. Paul's College which is a small school in Kilrea, in the North of Ireland. As we walked up to the 3rd floor we heard a type of laugh almost like a giggle. My friend Daniel was full of excitement when he heard the laughter and ran just ahead of me to see who on earth it was. As he went around the corner I heard a terrible scream. It was Daniel.

I ran around the corner to find Daniel staring ahead, pure white in the face. I looked at him for a couple of seconds then looked ahead. What I saw next made me freeze on the spot with fear as I saw a young girl almost transparent walking towards Daniel and me. As the girl came towards us I noticed she wasn't walking at all but floating in mid air. I tried to snap out of my state of shock but my eyes were glued to her face. As she was a few meters away she vanished right through the wall. The wall she went through took you into the math department but when I walked through the door to enter the room my teacher, Mr. McGurk, was teaching class and there was no sign of the ghost girl.

I told my story to almost every pupil and teacher but they didn't believe me or my friend Daniel. My English teacher went through the CCTV Footage but all you could see was Daniel and me looking at thin air and nothing else. This experience scarred me for life and I still can't believe what my friend and I saw on the 3rd floor. And to this day I still don't know who or what was in the hall that day.
