Shadow People, Dreams, and Premonitions

Hi everyone I wanted to share my story. I will start off with the shadow people.

When I was about 8 or 9 years old, I was with my brother. We were playing games on his bunk bed. We were on the top bunk when all of a sudden we heard running down the hall. We looked out the bedroom window and we see two black figures running back and forth fast, they just kept running back and forth over and over. Eventually, they stopped and we stopped looking at the window for about a minute, when we looked back out the window they were standing at the window staring at us.

After this incident I didn't see them for years until about 2 years ago.

One day I was in my room and out of the corner of my eye I saw someone walking. I thought it was my sister but then I realized my sister isn't that tall so I followed it through my kitchen to my back door where it stopped and just disappeared.

Recently, I have been seeing shadow people a lot more; they are basically everywhere I go. One incident was when I was at school one day. On my way to lunch there were 3 black shadow just staring at me at the other end of the hall. One of them had something in it's hand but I couldn't tell what.

Also, a couple weeks ago I was walking my dogs with my sister and all of a sudden black shadows just started appearing everywhere, surrounding the church parking lot, and I felt sick after that.

A couple of nights ago it was 1 AM and I was about to go to sleep when I felt someone get on the bed. I thought it was my grandma because she usually sleeps on the floor so I let it be. Then I heard my grandma on the floor and someone touch my hair. I didn't turn around because I was too afraid. I eventually drifted off to sleep.

Now, I am going to talk about my dreams. Lately I have been having a lot of dreams. Sometimes they feel like premonitions because last week I had a dream about me getting into a car accident and getting hurt, that same day my uncle came into my house saying that he just got into a car accident and his back got injured even more. Also, that same week, the next day which was Thursday, I had a dream that my closest aunt had cancer. I was able to see her suffer and at the end she had passed away, the dream felt like forever. That evening we got a phone call about one of my aunt's that I wasn't close to at all she had just died from cancer (I knew she was in the hospital but I didn't know what for).

Every now and then I feel pain before someone is inflicted with it. For example: one day I was with my cousin, aunt and grandma. We were leaving some club and all of a sudden I had a really sharp pain on one of my wrists then shortly after on my other wrist, there were no scratch marks or any marks at all it was hurting for about 5 minutes then it just stopped like nothing happened. That night I found out that one of my friends tried to commit suicide by slitting her wrists.

Other incidents are that I hear people calling my name sounding just like my family, but when I ask if they called me they say they didn't. I get scratches every once in a while, I always feel like someone is watching me like now. Sometimes my animals won't get near me they will be scared and start barking or growling or hissing at me. I hear people talking, things open and close by themselves, my animals start staring at the wall for long periods of time watching something and sometimes I get bumps that look like letters or symbols but I can never figure out what it means or is.

Also, I get bad feelings, I feel something touching me and the thing that has been freaking me out the most is that now when I go somewhere like the kitchen the lights start flickering. Same thing for the refrigerator. Televisions start messing up like the speakers start popping and all of a sudden I get sick. Sometimes I'm able to say the time without looking at any clocks, say what is about to happen, able to know who is going to call before receiving the call and able to see things that others can't.

I'm currently 15 years old, I feel like all this has been going on forever but I know it hasn't. I just want an explanation for all of this. My family tells me I am imagining some of these things but lately whatever this is has been making it's presence known. I say this because on July 4th we were gone all day long and we were talking about how much fun we were having and all of a sudden all the lights started flickering and all the power turned off. We knew it wasn't the fuses or any electrical wiring messed up or burned out because the power turned back on after 2 minutes.
