Enigma, Georgia Ghost Tales

I have had three occurrences happen in enigma, all within the same area. Two of the occurrences happened when I was about 10 years old, and the last happened when I was 18. The first happened when I was 10 years old. Late one night me and my brother were playing in the street next to our house where we lived at the time. The house was located right beside a field in the middle of enigma. It was not unusual to find arrow heads, and broken pottery in this field. Anyway, we were playing one night in the road under the street light when my brother decided he was going in to get something to drink. I waited  
    outside in the street just throwing the ball in the air and catching it. I got this feeling inside like I needed to turn around, so I did. When I turned around I just froze, but not in fear because I
  wasn’t even sure what I was looking at. It was clearly a human shape, but it was entirely made of light. You could not see clothes, but you could see that it was a man by the way that he carried himself and his masculine shape. He was standing in the grass on the side of the road with the tips of his toes meeting the pavement. He was just standing there. I stared in amazement as he began to slowly cross the street, step by step, very slowly. When he reached the other side, he stopped just as his toes began to touch the grass, almost as if the grass was his boundary. He just stood there for a second staring
straight ahead. Then all of a sudden his head turned toward me and he stared for a total of maybe 10 seconds. You could not make out facial features, but you could tell that his head turned by the fluctuation of the light. After the 10 second time period was over, he turned straight again and began walking into the ditch. As he walked into the ditch, his legs were moving as if he was going down a staircase, step by step, which was crazy. Then he disappeared into the ditch, never to be seen again by me. A couple minutes later, fear set in and I ran into the house and told everyone, of course no one believed it except for my mother. I believe in ghosts, but what was unusual about this occurrence is that whatever or whoever it was actually acknowledged that I was standing there. The second occurrence happened in the house next door, which my grandpa lived in at that time. Me and my friend were in the house by ourselves, watching my grandpas black and white TV. We were quietly watching TV for a while, when all of a sudden we heard a loud thump from the front right of the house. We looked at each other wondering what that might have been. We just dismissed the sound as the old house creaking. About 5 minutes later we heard the same sound, but it was moving farther through the house, now it was in the bathroom. All the rooms in the house were connected in a circular shape, so you could tell that the sound was moving through the house towards us. We were located in the back left of the house. The sound was moving down through the right side of the house, towards us. The sound was clearly the sound of a footstep in the house. The time between each footstep and the space between us and it began to shorten. By this time we were terrified, so we jumped up, cut off the TV and ran as fast as we could back toward the front door. My friend was ahead of me. As we were running toward the door, we could also hear the footsteps turn around and start running toward the door as if it was trying to make it to us before we made it out the door. As we made it to the door, my friend jerked the door open and jumped out. I wasted no time in jumping out behind him, but as I cleared the door seal a strong wind blew past me from the inside of the house, and very clearly I could hear a sound I can only describe as demonic behind me. It was almost as if whatever it was had reached its boundary, almost as if it could go no further than the door. Needless to say, we never entered the house again alone, and I have never forgotten the experience. The last occurrence happened several years later in my life. Late one night me and a friend went out the field next to the houses where the original occurrences happened years earlier. We were looking at stars that night trying to see meteorites falling. There is a pond located in the back of this field, and an entrance cut through the pine trees that the farmers had used for irrigation. We were in the field for a while, when all of a sudden I noticed a dim light coming from the entrance of the pond. At first I thought maybe it was a truck or a person coming out of the entrance. The fact that it was dead silent in the area dismissed the fact of a truck. The light was a constant glowing light, but you could clearly see that it was coming out of the woods. If it was a person carrying a flashlight, there would naturally be movement in the light against the trees. At this time I could not directly see the source, just the light from the source coming through the trees. My friend, who was a completely different person from the previous experience years earlier, also saw the light. We were both investigating ideas of what we may have been looking at. We decided to wait a few min to test our nerves of steel. The light had no fluctuation to it, which dismissed the idea of a truck or a person who may have possibly been in the woods at the time. The light continued to emerge through the woods until finally we thought it was going to come out. The light had continued to silently and steadily make its way through the woods until finally it was about to reveal itself. We decided it was time to book it! My friend cut out running and I was not far behind. The whole time I was running I continued to watch and see what emerged. Whatever the source of the light was, it never fully revealed itself before we made our escape. It was another truly terrifying experience. The more I thought about it, the color and brightness of the light was consistent with the man made of light I had saw years before. I finally came to the conclusion that the man made of light had decided to make a second appearance. Needless to say I have never returned to try my luck again. But I am tempted and may one day decide to return......
