The Cameron Story: A Haunting in Turlock/The Ragmuffin Kid
By Paul Dale Roberts, HPI General Manager/Ghostwriter
Janice Cameron contacted me recently and has a very unusual story to tell. She needs HPI to look into a haunting in Turlock.
Her son Chris and his wife Tiffany moved to Turlock recently. They have a young daughter. Their daughter has not been getting any sleep lately. The reason why their daughter has not been getting any sleep is because after midnight a little girl entity will shake their daughter's bed and then whisper in their daughter's ear..."let's play". The little girl entity will continue to whisper in their daughter's ear until she wakes up. The little girl entity has asked Chris & Tiffany's daughter on how to play computer games. She wants to learn how to play games like Spongebob. This definitely tells me that this is an intelligent haunting and not a residual haunting.
The house was built in the early 70s and the owner of the house is the coach for the Oakland As. Other activity in the house witnessed by Chris and his wife Tiffany is that the TV will get louder and louder from the little girl's room. There is no one up there to turn the TV up loud, but for some strange reason the TV becomes louder on its own.
They have taken their daughter to a doctor and in the doctor's office their daughter drew a picture of a little girl and claims that it is this little girl that awakens her in the middle of the night. Things are getting so bad, Chris & Tiffany's daughter falls asleep in school. Chris one day is looking out his window and sees a disheveled child out front of his house, when he looked again, the child was gone. Chris calls this disheveled child the Ragmuffin Kid.
Another activity in the house is their fertility god statue is constantly thrown on the floor.
I asked Janice has the family ever experienced other paranormal activity. Janice said that at her work, she once saw an apparition in the shape of a white fog. When Chris lived in a home in Carmichael his mother's dresser mirror had a hand print that was larger than his hand. At this same home Tiffany heard a woman crying over the crib and asking 'where is my baby?'
Tiffany once saw a psychic that described her deceased grandmother to a 'T'. When she went home from the psychic, the power in her home went out and she feels it was caused by her deceased grandfather. It was like the grandfather wanted to talk and be heard. In the seven years before her grandfather died, the grandfather hadnt spoken to Tiffany.
Janice's sister once had an experience, in which her sister heard her deceased grandmother say...'everything is okay'. The deceased grandmother was referring to her medical condition.
Before Janice left my home, she had a very close friend come over. Her friends name is Jesse Farris. Jesse told me that when he lived in a home on Hazel Avenue, that a guy named Ricky hung himself in the garage. Jesse started hearing footsteps in the hallway. Jesse later placed a noose at the burned area of the garage where Ricky hung himself, the next day he saw the noose swinging by itself.
After this interview with Janice, I am setting up an HPI team to investigate the home in Turlock. Stayed tuned for the results.
