She sat up suddenly and jumped off her bed, running through the door as she hollered down the upstairs hall “ Daddy!” But then her knees buckled as she froze, pressing her face against the bars of the rail above the archway on the second floor. There stood two oddly young couple. The lady was short with brown hair and she glowed with a joyful look about her. The little girl on the second floor pouted as she wondered why they were in her parent’s house. She then quietly listened in on their conversation. “ Oh john, it’s so huge and beautiful!” Stephanie blurted out after looking all around in astonishment. The man slightly taller was just starting to climb the steps with a couple of suitcases, “ Now your happy we bought this hoax of a haunted house. All there is is cobwebs. Woo! I’m so scared!” he said sarcastically at his wife. Stephanie pouted angrily, biting her lower lip “ come on, John, knock it off! You haven’t stayed the night yet.” Stephanie slowly climbed the stairs behind john, still looking about. John reached the top of stairway were the girl entity stood. But John did not see her because he went right through her. She then stepped aside as Stephanie came up. She turned and said “Why are you here?” John almost immediately chuckled, “Wow, this house gives me a funny feeling!” the little girl hollered, “ Who are you?” seeming frustrated and upset. Suddenly Stephanie turned facing the little girl, but seemingly looking beyond her, “Did you hear something, John?” He looked back at Stephanie confused, “What? No.” Stephanie turned back to John and shrugged “Just thought I herd someone talking.” “Nah, there’s no one here but us two, and I wasn’t talking” John chuckled heading down the hall with his wife, stepping into a small but cozy bedroom. The little girl followed, whining at them “I’m here, I’m here!”

The room was small with flowered wallpaper; there was a twin-sized bed already inside it with soft blue and pink covers. On the far side of the room were two windows over looking the backyard and part of the pond. On the opposite side of the bed was a fair sized walk-in closet. John carried the suitcases to the closet and set them inside “ Maybe you need some rest, Stephanie, after all it is midnight and you don’t usually stay up this long.” Stephanie smiled “ yes, your right.” as she crawled onto the right side of the bed after kicking her shoes off. John jumped over her, landing on his back on the left side of the bed as he let out a sigh of relief. Stephanie giggled and kissed his cheek “ Good night, John.” “Good night, Stephanie.” John smiled closing his eyes as they both fell fast asleep. By this time, the little girl was furious. First they waltz in claiming this house was theirs and now they stole her very own bed. She reached out and touched Stephanie’s feet, making Stephanie’s feet cold as the little girl drew energy from Stephanie’s life form. Stephanie started to move her feet to get them warm, the ice coldness waking her from her slumber. She then opened her eyes and looked down to her feet to see the young girl touching her feet, Stephanie gasped. But Stephanie could not scream and she found her movement was limited. The strange little girl stared at her and started to sing, “Now I lay me down to rest, close my eyes inside my bed and dream about eternal bliss.” As if it were a portal sucking her in, she was drawn to a vision of a sergeant in a suit walking out the front door as a lady turned towards her in a hideously scary scolding way. The vision flashing to the same lady now pulling her out of the bed and pushing her into the closet and again flashing to the cold darkness of the closet. The window slowly opened as the books flew across the room, john woke up from the cold wind. He looked down, noticing the transparent person and screamed. He then turned to his wife to see her in a ghostly pale state and shaking with her eyes wide open. John then shook his wife and screamed “Stephanie, wake up! Wake up!” the little girl ran away as the activity went to a minimum, gradually stopping. Stephanie closed her eyes and passed out. John picked his wife up and ran out the door of the bedroom and down the stairs. He decided to settle for the living room till morning.

In morning, the little girl found her guests talking to a strange man in a black suit. Walking up to the strange man, she looked up at him. The man was about the same height as john, but he was a lot older and had a long beard. The man shivered and rubbed his arm as his eyes cast around the room. John put his hand on the priest’s shoulder, “ Are you alright, Father Smith?” Father Smith nodded “ she’s here, hurry and tell her!” he said with haste. The little girl broke in, “ Tell me what?” as she scowled up at them. Almost following the little girl’s reply, Stephanie said, “ We’re here to live inside this house, not take it from you.” “Yes, we would like to coexist with you inside this house, we wish not to harm you.” Said John sounding a little scared. The little girl thought about it for a moment and then she warmed up. Father Smith sighed and then smiled, “I believe she has calmed down, just remember this was originally her house. She seems to be paranoid about you two taking her home. So if you keep that to a minimum, she should quiet down.” Stephanie and John looked at each other and then smiled at the priest “thank you Father Smith.” “Your welcome, now lets all say a prayer,” Father Smith said as he raised his hands a bit. They all began to pray including the little girl entity. At the door, Father Smith, John and Stephanie bid each other fair well. John opened the door as Father Smith walked down the sidewalk. But to their astonishment, a totally black van with yellow lettering that said “ TAPS” had pulled into their drive way. A total of four men climbed out of the vehicle. The little girl poked her head out between the two couple and the looked up at the couple whispering. “It’s really them! The official TAPS members!” Stephanie grinned at John. “I know, I called them last night while you were sleeping.” Stephanie elbowed him, “ You could have told me this morning!” “Shush, we’ll fight later about this.” John barked softly. The little girl ran away as the group of strangers approached the two couple. As they all shook hands a tall bulky man with a balled head stated, “ Hi, my name is Jason and this is Steve.” Steve was shorter than Jason with black hair with a TAPS cap on. Another man who was shorter then Jason but still just a touch taller then Steve began to speak “ I am Grant and this is Brian.” Brian was skinny and a touch taller than Grant. “We came at your request to investigate your house to find out if it has any paranormal activity or not. During this investigation there will be video taping and recordings of various e.v.p.’s in parts of the house that seem to hold the most activity.” John and Stephanie stepped aside and said, “Welcome to our house.” The TAPS group walked in the front door and smiled.

“Wow! Look at how big this foyer is.” Brian said, as he was astonished. Stephanie sort of shooed the TAPS members into the living room were the last occurrence was made. John spoke almost as if he were proud but still skeptical of the strange happenings, “ This morning, we invited Father Smith over to bless the house and he experienced a chill through out his body as he shivered.” Jason and Grant nodded as Steve and Brian listened quietly as if they were hawks waiting for his next move. “ There’s one other room, it’s upstairs. Follow me, pleas.” Stephanie announced behind them. Then Steve, Brian, Grant and Jason all turned and followed Stephanie up the stairs. John brought up the rear, keeping a close eye on everyone to make sure they all were okay. The little girl peaked out from the closet, just in time to see the rather large group of people flood into her room. “ This is were we experienced a large amount of activity.” Stephanie said slowly. John made his way to the front “ Yes, my wife went into shock and had visions of people, I’ve distinctively saw a little girl touching my wife’s feet.” The little girl walked toward the group curiously and looked at them. Just then she saw Grant and cried out, “ Daddy?” Stephanie continued, “ The windows opened and books flew as cold wind blew in, and it’s warm outside!” Grant smiled “well, we’ll set up a few cameras to see if we can catch anything. Alright, we’ll see you tomorrow morning.” John and Stephanie both thanked the group of TAPS members and made there way out of the little room. “Okay, time to get to work!” Jason chimed in as Steve and Brian walked out of the little room and got everything up and running. The little girl whined, “Daddy, Daddy!” as Grant began walk out but then stopped. “Come on, Grant, we have to go check on the equipment first.” Jason hurried Grant. Grant shushed Jason, “Did you just hear that?” Jason stared at Grant “Well…No.” “I thought I herd some one say Daddy, lets put a microphone in this room. Maybe we’ll catch an e.v.p.” Grant soon joined Jason with the overall examination of the equipment and they were ready for the investigation to start. Steve and Brian headed up stares and into the small room with a small tape recorder and microphone. “Hello? Is anybody here?” Steve said as he moved the microphone around slowly to pick up better audio. The little girl stood on the bed, watching the two guys walk around the room with a strange object in their hand. “If there’s somebody here, could you pleas give us a sign?” Brian almost demanded. The little girl looked around for something to do, she spotted the bible beside bed she picked it up and threw it as it hit Brian in the middle of his back. Brian cringed, “ah! What the…what was that?” Steve picked the bible up, “I think you got hit, dude.” Meanwhile, Grant was sitting in a chair in the living room “Hello, is there anybody here?” Jason wiped his four-head “boy, it’s getting hot in here.” “Lets get a reading.” Grant stood up excited a little.

Jason slowly moved the heat-sensing device around the room, repeating the numbers he saw on the tiny screen, “One point three…One point five…Four point two, five, and five point five!” Grant quickly snapped a few photos as Jason was at the peak of his numbers. Suddenly Jason hollered and fell to his knees and hands. Grant rushed to Jason’s side, “ Are you alright, man?” “ Ah, gosh that burned!” Jason gulped and slowly stood up, “Felt like some one whacked me with a clothes-hanger set on fire!” “ Let me see if it left a mark?” Grant waited for Jason to show were he received the blow. Jason lifted his shirt half way and sure enough Jason had a thin red mark in the shape of a hanger. “Woe! Look at that!” The little girl pressed her face against the rail again, and watched Brian and Steve walking down the steps. She sighed and stood up, feeling very lonely and began to cry. She couldn’t help thinking they were mad at her for throwing the book. After a short while she wiped her eyes and noticed Grant and Jason ascending the stairs. Grant reached the top of the stairs and accidentally dropped the heat-sensing device. The little girl was standing right in front of Grant when Grant slowly looked up and saw a slight face two seconds away from his. Grant froze, his heart pounding, he couldn’t believe what he was seeing. He found it hard to talk and soon he could feel the cold spot on his cheek that resembled a small hand. Though Jason was right behind him and had been trying to talk to Grant, Grant choked out the words, “JASON! Front…Picture…” Jason quickly ran up the three steps and snapped a quick picture. But the little girl ran away a little bit and stood by the rail. Grant stood up straight and gulped as he looked up at Jason, “I saw her, Jason!” “Saw who?” Jason replied, sort of bewildered over the whole situation. “The little girl! The entity, I saw her!” Grant smiled, so excitedly. They both started walking towards the little bedroom and stepped inside. As the little girl climbed and began to stand on the bed, Jason said quickly, “hey, did you just see that? The sheets rustled a bit.” “ I’m here.” The little girl waved at Jason. Grant said firmly, “Who are you?” The little girl hopped off the bed and ran to the closet and opened the door. She waited, hearing them shout, “Woe!” She could hear the sound of all four feet shuffle towards the closet. Grant held the heat-sensing device towards the little girl, “ Wow, four point nine!” Jason took a few pictures in front of Grant and then the side of the closet wall popped open. Grant slowly pushed the wall a little and it slowly swung open with a squeak. Grant slowly peaked into the space behind the little room. There was an open trunk filled with something, also there were dolls on a shelf and a small blanket on the floor with a tiny bunny stuffed animal. Grant and Jason walked in the small room as the little Bunny rose slowly. The little girl looked at them as they said, “Woe! Look at that! Look at that!” Jason took more pictures of the moving rabbit. The little girl rooted through her trunk as clothes, books, papers, and pictures fell on the floor in front of the trunk. Out flew a single picture and slowly floated in the air as if it were a feather, landing right before Grant’s feet.

Grant slowly bent over and picked the black and white photo up. It seemed to be a family photo, there was a man that looked somewhat familiar and he wore an army suit, to the left of him was a woman with a dark blouse and a skirt and then beneath them, The little girl stood about mid way of the woman’s thigh, she had long black hair and held the tiny stuffed bunny that looked like the one that had been mysteriously levitating. Jason had been peering over Grant’s shoulder as Grant flipped the photo over. Jason read out loud, “ Robert Lee Rose, Haggis Angelica Williams and Emma Marie Rose.” Grant and Jason turned and slowly walked through the maze of the house and found their selves downstairs examining the same kind of marks on Steve as they did Jason. Then the TAPS members began to pack up the strange object they carried in bags as they ascended outside.
Emma frowned watching the strangers leave; she thought they were mad at her. She just wanted them to know she was there; she wanted her father to recognize it was she.
Emma woke up the next morning to the sound of the door opening; she wandered out of her bedroom and into the hall. Emma looked upon the foyer were Stephanie, John, Grant, and Jason stood shaking hands and sat a table that was set up.
“It’s nice to have you in our home again!” Stephanie smiled and the men laughed. “Woo… we had quite a night, we had an amazing amount of paranormal activity with individuals in our group last night” Grant grinned and shook his head a little as if in disbelief. “Yes, but because we came here to prove a haunting wrong, unfortunately we cannot include personal experiences because we cannot prove if something happened.” Jason explained. “However, we caught a numerous amount of evidence. Lets take a look at this.” Grant said as he began to fiddle with a black skinny thing with a screen.

By this time Emma had walked down the stairs and joined the group as stood on the box next to the table. She peered at the screen as the sheet on her bed moved a little and suddenly the bible by the bed slowly levitated and flew across the screen. John and Stephanie’s mouths dropped. “One of our members experienced getting hit with a book and we just happened to record it on video, okay theirs one more” Grant explained. The screen projected a slow rustle in the sheets as if some one was climbing up on the bed. “Now this was just when me and Grant had just entered the child’s room upstairs and I thought I had saw something” Jason said as he smiled. Emma giggles, “I just wanted to be eye level!” “Now listen to this!” Grant said excitedly as he fiddled with the strange object that now play a hiss and a distinguished “I’m here.” Right in the middle of it. Stephanie was surprised, “Oh my god, it’s the little girl that was singing near my feet.” Grant smiled, “It’s pretty clear what she’s saying, do you agree?” John nods in amazement, “ I’m here.” Jason nods “ unfortunately, we weren’t able to get the closet door opening, but we did get photographic images of the hidden room up in the small bedroom.” Jason handed Stephanie and john many pictures, which included a floating bunny and many semi- transparent silhouettes that appeared to be a little girl. “Wow, this is so awesome!” Stephanie blurted. “ Also, we found this picture in the hidden room, which helped in our researches. It turns out that this girl’s name is Emma Marie Rose. For the first part of her life she was left with her mother whom abandoned her at a church where her father, Robert Lee Rose, had shown up. From there Robert Lee Rose had taken her home to here and then he married Emma Marie Rose’s stepmother, Haggis Angelica Williams. Apparently while Robert Lee Rose went off on military duty, Haggis Angelica Williams had locked Emma Marie Rose in the hidden room. Her body was found in 1864, huddled in the corner of the closet and she was pronounced dead. Haggis Angelica Williams was hanged for the murder of Emma Marie Rose and adultery. Robert Lee Rose died a year later in the line of duty after several attempts of suicide. And this information is all for you.” Grant handed Stephanie and John a copy of the documented records.
Emma sat down on the box, “ Wait…I’m dead? But… But Daddy didn’t come home!” Emma got up and ran away crying.

Later that night, Stephanie and John had decided to try and sleep in the little bedroom again. So Emma decided to wander around as she ascended out into the hallway. As Emma reached the rail, she peered down at the foyer again and stared at the front door. Suddenly the front door flew open and Robert Lee Rose hollered, “I’m home!” Emma excitedly ran down the stairs and screamed “Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!” and she hugged him tightly. “ Come on little one, let’s go home!” Robert Lee Rose smiled down at his child. Emma looked at him and then up at the stairs and frowned, “ hold on daddy, I want to say goodbye, pleas wait for me here.” Robert Lee Rose nodded as Emma ran up the stairs and jumped on her bed. “Wake up, Wake up!” Emma pleaded with the couple. Stephanie and John heard her and woke up to see her. “Come on!” Emma said excitedly and jumped off the bed and ran across the room and through the door. Stephanie got up, come on, she wants us to follow her!” “Fine...” John got up and opens the door. They spotted Emma running down the stair and followed. To their astonishment, they found a man that resembled Grant in a way, with his arm around Emma. Stephanie gasped and looked at John and then back at the two. Emma and Robert waved goodbye and Stephanie did the same and elbowed John, who was a bit shocked at what he was seeing. But john waved quickly, after he realized what was happening. Emma looked up at Robert and Robert did the same as they where smiling. They both turned and Robert took Emma’s hand and they walked out the front door as the door quietly shut.
