| An Incident of Supergirl? |
| I just wanted to start sharing things I had experienced much earlier on in my life, some as early as four years old. Many of you were or are under the impression that this may have started with my removing the cross from the tree, but it goes much farther back than that. One of my earlier experiences involved what was most likely either A. a childhood hallucination or B. an effort by the spirits to get me (a small child at the time) to NOT be afraid of their quite often horribly shocking appearance. My dad and I were driving down a two lane road when I was about six or seven. We were going to Union City Tennessee to visit some family friends. As we're driving down the road, we passed this corn field. I saw a woman running out of the corn field, but she had no head. I had learned by this time not to say anything to my Mom or Dad about these things I saw, because, well, my Dad was quite a jerk and more often than not, my pleas of "I'm scared" were met with one of my Dad's favorite answers, "Boy, do you want me to give you something to be scared of?!" So, I didn't say anything to my Dad. I'm watching this woman out the window and she's tossing her head around in the air, almost like a clown playing with a balloon or something. The song "The Greeks Don't Want No Freaks" by the Eagles was playing on the 8 track at the moment the lady with no head leapt from the side of the road, onto the hood of our car, she was then wearing a Supergirl outfit, cape and all, but with no head, still juggling it around, and she landed on one foot on our hood. I VIVIDLY remember how plastic/shiny leather looking her boots were and how the toes looked like they bent and scrunched as they landed on our hood. The boots were a bright BRIGHT red with a white stripe around the top which came to a point in the center and a thin white stripe going down to the tip-toe of the boot. When she leapt onto the hood of the car, I saw the eyes of her head looking at me, and she smiled. I slunk down into one of my favorite places when I was scared in the car, I slid down into the floorboard with my head resting on the seat. She then leapt from our hood and ran off into the field on the other side of the road. The preceding may sound silly to some of you, but you have to realize, I was young, very young, and had been seeing "ghosts" since I was about four. I was mortified of this spot in the road for YEARS after that and still think about this happening every time I drive through there to this day, some 22 years later. |
