G'Day, it's Matthew here and I've got a pretty freaky story. Before I start, I'd like to thank this website for giving me the oppurtunity to tell my story. Anyway, here's the story.
To celebrate my mum's fortieth birthday, we had a birthday party at a restaurant, Proudfoots in Warrnambool.
At about the middle of the party, I decided to go out for a walk by the river (the Hopkin's River is right outside of Proudfoots). As I was walking by the river, I was thinking about my great grandma who had recently died. I was wishing that she could have been there, and I was thinking how much I missed her.
I was just about to turn around snd go back inside, when a car came zooming past surrounded in mist. The car looked exactly like my great granma's car (same colour and everyhting)! Even in the dark I could see it pretty good. That didn't really freak me out that much, but what happened next did!
I started to turn around when I saw a figure standing up at the carpark (the carpark is above the river, you just have to go up about 12 steps to get there). The strange thing was, the figure looked EXACTLY like my great grandma (the same height and evertyting). Then I heard the figure speak. Yep, you guessed it. It sounded just like my great grandma!
That was when I got freaked out. I started running back to the building when I realised something. The figure was about the same height as the little light posts that were on both sides of the figure. And maybe the voice was all in my head. I slowly walked back and looked exactly where the figure was. Nothing stood where the figure used to be, it had vanished! I ran back inside and didn't say anything.
A few months later, my dad, his family (including me)and his girlfriend and her son went camping at Halls Gap. There I told my sister and my dad's, girlfriend's son about my great grandma. They're the only people that I've told and they probably forgwet by now.
Anyway, my mum's 41 now and I haven't seen any other ghosts yet. You may not think it's a ghost, but I do.
