My Brother in Law's Grandma passed a few years ago. The age gap between me and my sister is huge so she got married when I was super young. I've known my BIL's family for a long time including his Grandma who resided with them. She has been mentally ill most her life. Her husband took care of her and after he passed my BIL's family took care of her. Whenever I went to their house I have always been scared of her. Not blatant fear but I have sensed something deeply unsettling. I never knew why and I never was left alone with her until one night when all of my family members had to go to receive a relative from an airport in the middle of the night. I don't know if they tried waking me but I am guessing they didn't want to disturb me in my sleep so they left me in the house with that grandma alone. And I so wish I slept through the night but I couldnt. I heard her talking to someone in her room. I swear it was just the two of us. When I woke up the whole house was dark and when I heard her voice I immediately woke up with a jolt. She wasn't just talking she was yelling. She was saying things I couldn't make any sense of but for sure I was so scared and turned on the bedroom light. I immediately went down the hallway and turned on the TV and the night lights. I only heard the sound of her yelling at someone and some stray dogs barking in the street. With her dialogue I could make sense that it was a woman she was referring to and that she ruined her life. My family came within a few minutes and I told my mom what had happened the next day. She told me the story of the grandma. When she was pregnant with her second baby her husband had travelled out of town for some work and she heard from someone that he was cheating on her with someone. Ever since her mental health deteriorated. There are more things to the story but I understood that was the woman she was referring to the previous night.
So ever since I would only visit them during the day and never stayed during the night. A few months later the grandma passed away. I went to their house and the funeral was the next day. We had to stay at the house overnight. I had no choice but to stay I couldn't be insensitive and tell my mom that I am feeling weird to stay at the house. I was sleeping and around 2 am I felt someone touch my feet. I pulled over the blankets over my head as I immediately sensed who it could be. I was so nervous but I pulled down the blanket and saw the whole family were sleeping and there was no one awake. Only a dim light was turned on. I went back to sleep. Within a few minutes I dreamt of the Grandma crawling to me in that exact same bedroom. I woke up called my dad to pick me up (he had to work that night) and fled. I did not attend the funeral.
I had the same dream occur to me the following nights. But in the room that I was sleeping in. If it was my mom's room the dream would be in that specific room and when it was mine the same dream in that room. I told my mom and she asked the grandma not to visit me out loud and I stopped getting those dreams. I get chills even now thinking of what had happened.
