7-Year-Old Boy Tells Mom He Is Not Alone at Night, Mom Puts Camera in His Room — Story of the Day
When Sarah’s 7-year-old son, Liam, began insisting that he wasn’t alone at night, she dismissed it as a child’s vivid imagination. “I hear whispers, Mom,” he said one evening. “There’s someone sitting at the foot of my bed.”
At first, Sarah reassured him, attributing his stories to bad dreams or shadows playing tricks. But when Liam started refusing to sleep in his room, visibly anxious, she grew concerned. To ease his fears—and her own curiosity—Sarah decided to set up a camera in his room.
The next morning, she reviewed the footage, expecting to see nothing. Instead, her heart skipped a beat. The video showed Liam sound asleep, but in the middle of the night, the curtains fluttered slightly even though the window was closed. Moments later, a faint, shadowy figure appeared near the foot of his bed. It was indistinct but unmistakably there.
Terrified yet determined to protect her son, Sarah delved deeper. After consulting an expert in paranormal activity, she learned that her house had a history. Decades ago, an elderly woman who had lived there alone passed away in Liam’s room.
Rather than panic, Sarah chose to confront the situation with empathy. She sat with Liam and explained that the “presence” might simply be someone who needed peace. Together, they placed flowers and a small note in the room, wishing the spirit well.
From that night on, the disturbances stopped, and Liam began sleeping soundly again. Sarah chose not to remove the camera, but the recordings showed nothing unusual anymore.
The experience taught Sarah a profound lesson about listening to her child and approaching the unknown with understanding rather than fear. To this day, she and Liam remember the incident as a mysterious yet oddly comforting chapter in their lives.
