At the time, she had a 26 inch t.v in her room. She had not been feeling well for a couple of days, and because she wasn't feeling well, all she could really do was simply lay around and watch t.v. She either layed on the couch or in her bed.
One night, after I had tucked her in and said good-night, she informed me that she wasn't all that tired. She asked me if she could lay in her bed and watch some t.v for a little while before falling asleep. I told her it was okay, but asked her not to have the t.v too loud. She said okay, so I then kissed her good-night and headed to bed.
A short time later I woke back up and went in to check on her. She was sound asleep. I noticed however, that her t.v was turned around. The screen of the television was now facing the back of the wall unit where it was sitting, and the back of the television was facing outward. I found it odd but figured I would simply ask my daughter about it in the morning.
The next morning when I woke up, I went in to check on my daughter again. She was still asleep and her t.v was still turned around. A short time later she woke up and came out to the living room where I was sitting. I said good morning to her and asked her how she was feeling.
She informed me that she was feeling much better which I was very glad to hear. I then asked her what had happened to her t.v. I told her that I had noticed when I checked on her through the night, that she had turned it around. I asked her why she had done that.
She informed me that something had happened the night before that really scared her. Apparently, a short time after I had said good-night to her and headed to bed, she was laying in her bed watching television and became tired. She then turned her t.v off.
She was still laying on her side facing the television when she felt that someone had come into her room. She assumed it was me coming in to check on her. However, she saw in the reflection of the television, a man standing in her room just behind her.
She was mortified and quickly closed her eyes. When she opened her eyes, the man's reflection was gone from the t.v. She turned over to look behind her, and sure enough there was no one in her room. She then decided to turn the t.v around, terrified of seeing a reflection of someone in her t.v again.
I tried to reassure her that it was probably just her imagination since she was so tired. I tried convincing her that it was probably nothing. However, my daughter could not be convinced otherwise. She told me in no uncertain terms that she was wide awake when she saw it, and she knew exactly what she saw.
She also insisted that the t.v be removed from her bedroom. So, upon her insistence, I removed the television from her room and placed in it a closet.
So, just who or what was it that she saw in the reflection of her television? To this day, we still have no idea.
It has been many years now since that experience, and my daughter has not forgotten it. She still remembers it vividly. And she still insists even to this very day on not wanting or having a television in her bedroom.
