A woman wrote about the problems she was having with her 8-year-old daughter on the internet. In the letter, she wrote about how Emilie’s actions (names were changed) caused her therapy sessions to end without warning.
Emily had always been a shy, private child who liked reading books more than playing with other kids. Her parents thought her behavior was just because she was shy and were happy to let her be alone to feel better.

But things changed when she started yelling in the middle of the night about seeing strange “shadows.” It began as bad dreams, but soon there were scary pictures of dark figures and symbols. Her parents were very worried because they could feel a change in her that was making them uncomfortable. It was like a shadow was getting bigger every night.

This is her letter:

The drawings were the first red flag. Dark figures, strange symbols, and places I didn’t recognize. Then Emily started acting strange-she would stare into empty corners, murmuring things under her breath that sounded like nonsense but had an eerie rhythm. I convinced myself it was just stress, or maybe something she saw online.
I decided to get her professional help. The therapist initially believed it was anxiety or trauma manifesting in strange ways. But after a particularly disturbing session, everything changed.
The therapist pulled me aside and told me that Emily (8 yo) had recounted detailed descriptions of events that were deeply unsettling. They weren’t imaginary. Emily was describing real unsolved cases of missing children-cases that had been cold for decades. She even named specific locations, places far from anywhere we had ever been.
A few weeks later, the therapist abruptly canceled our sessions. Their office closed without explanation, and they wouldn’t return my calls. When I finally reached them, the therapist was a wreck. They said they couldn’t help anymore, claiming that after their last session with Emily, something felt wrong, as if they were being watched. They wouldn’t say much more, but their fear was palpable.
Emily’s behavior only grew worse after that. She began speaking in strange voices, recounting events with such specificity that it no longer felt like she was imagining it. She spoke as if she had lived them-places, names, faces that haunted her and, now, us.
