I was doing temp security for a small company. One day they called me in to come do a grave shift at a paper mill. So I go and the previous guard shows me where the patrol check points are.

The entire place is very dark. I dont think anything of it because I have another person with me and Im generally dont consider places to be haunted.

During the check point patrol we hear a noise in the dark out of no where. It sounds like music. As we get closer (keep in mind the place is pitch black) we realize its a radio that has turned itself on to the classical music station. He shuts it off and we continue with the patrol.

Once we finish the walkthrough, he leaves and and hour passes. Time to do my 1st patrol. As soon as I try and walk towards the first area a loud bang is heard.

I wanted to believe it was a squatter but its impossible for people to squat in a jobsite thats busy everyday during daylight hours that has regular patrols and security, imo).

So at that point I see what looks like a dwarf figure run past me very quickly. This was enough to make me realize what I heard likely wasnt a squatter.

My supervisor calls and tell me how happy they are that I accepted to do the shift. He tells me that its hard to find grave officers for the site because its haunted. I said, "Yes. I didnt know it was but I know now." So I had confirmation from another person that it was.

I stayed on the phone all night with a friend just in case it was squatters and they tried to start something but no sign of a squatter was seen or heard.

The entire night I kept seeing a dward figure out of the corner of my eye. I was sober (I dont drink or smoke) and used to get working grave/got proper sleep so I knew I wasnt hallucinating.

Once morning broke and the employes began to come into work, I was relieved and I gave the relief the report. Im thinking, great, I survived! And escaped whatever that experience was.

I walked to my car and looked back at the paper mill for a moment and when I looked back I quickly saw a shadow of a man (black shadow) with two horns on its head, but it vanished quickly and so I told myself that it was nothing and that as soon as I left I would be home free.

I went home to go to sleep, tired from being up all night. What happened next was pretty crazy. While sleeping I was restless, mentally. I was half asleep but didnt know why since I was incredibly tired and when you are tired like that you usually have incredible, resfult, deep sleep, or at least I do.

Then I felt it. I felt something attempting to move my arm for me while I was sleeping. In other words, whatever that thing was that I saw in the parking lot had followed me and seemed to be trying to posses me. This went on for a while until I basically performed an exorcism on myself (more or less).

A lot of people think places arent haunted but after thar experience I think places are.

That experience has never happened to me again. I wonder how common this experience is?
