UNKNOWN WORLD: ENTITY 3 ("KIMOMAN")

GRADE SCHOOL

I was staying the night with one of my maternal gramma’s. She and gramps stays in a big house in Corinthian Garden’s, one of the high end places near Makati Area. It’s just them living there with some house helps. Me and some cousins were invited to stay over for the summer. Swimming in their rectangular pool, lavished with food and treats.

One midnight, I turned my sleeping form at them made-up bed in the lushly carpeted floor, beside the double bed my 3 cousins were occupying. I found myself facing a “something” staring at me by the side window, about 2 arms length away from me. It’s a small black shadow (a KIMOMAN ???). I can do nothing but reach up the bed to shake my cousins awake with a scared voice that turned into a howl of cry when with one blink, the figure disappeared at my side and reappeared near my feet and getting closer and closer.

I was uncontrollably crying under the blanket as everyone in the room, and in the next’s, came rushing to my side. The room was all bright and filled with people, my cousins, gran’s and some of their other nieces, when I opened my eyes. After a glass of filled water and a few gulping breaths, I relayed what transpired.

UNKNOWN WORLD: ENTITY 2 (WHO'S THAT MAN?")

PRE-SCHOOL AGE

The apartment we were renting by this time, somewhere in Quezon City (Philippines), have stairs from the front gate going up the house itself. Under the staircase is a place we used as stock area, and at the same time used as sleeping area by our house help.

One midnight, we heard Norma screamed at the top of her lungs as she scrambled out of bed and came rushing upstairs with an almost incoherent mumbling explanation of seeing a lady in white standing before her bed with all of its hair standing up.

Before this incident, just a few days prior, my dad recounted that I also came rushing up the very same plight of stairs yelling that there’s a man coming after me. The second steel door, after the gate, is definitely locked though, and no reason for them to believe that a possible mugger, kidnapper or anyone coming in.

UNKNOWN WORLD: ENTITY 1 ("SOMETHING MAKING ME CRY")

DURING INFANCY

This is a story imparted by my dad. It always starts with going back in time, at a time he was carrying a wailing infant, me. He insisted that I was peacefully sleeping in my cot when I suddenly cried so loud. Says he and mom tried to everything to soothe me, but then, he noticed my fear-stricken look focusing from left to right as if my gaze is following a flying something overhead. Though they see nothing, they felt my fear that made the hairs in their nape stood paralleling my scaring observance. And so he shouted in the air to nothing in particular, to go away and stop scaring the child, along with their spiritual beliefs of saying it in the name of God. This seemed to have worked because in no time, I settled back down as if nothing happened.
