When i was about 4; my little boyfriend (aaw) and his older brother came round my house one evening., and when our parents were downstairs, we creped up to my room with waterpistols (not filled) and pretended we were ghost busters. and try to catch the 'ghosts' his brother told me were living in my room. we hid by my bed and screamed when he said he saw one.
I don't know why, but we kept on going up there to try and see them, but his older brother allways scared us.
I couldn't go in my room for a year.
