It's Coming

Just not crazy, violently.

What was that?

-A fly? - A cockroach.

No.

I swear to God where'd that come from?

Is there someone here Heaven? Heaven? Heaven?

It can be perceived as crazy,

which is why I don't tell a lot of people about it...

but it's happening

and it happens quite often.

By 36 years old it's happened so long, I know that I'm not crazy

and I'm fine with whoever thinks so.

No, I haven't spoken to anyone

outside the family about it.

I don't wanna tell them and then they think

that I'm a crazy person.

I do think that there are evil spirits in this house.

I feel like when things like this happen to us,

African Americans, we don't seek any professional opinions

or help about it because we don't wanna sound or look crazy.

We kind of keep it in circle amongst the people

who either seen it or know about it and we ignore it.

We believe it comes from evil intent.

We won't pay it any mind.

What's your name?

Javier.

-And how old are you? -Seven.

And your brothers and sisters names,

what are their names?

Their names is, ,

and Antonio...

Alexis and Selena.

My hobbies are playing PlayStation, playing Fortnite.

Minecraft, DS Emulator, swimming.

What's your favorite subject at school?

Crafting. Like, you have a paper, some glue sticks...

a pencil, some scissors,

and you basically draw what you're gonna cut out

and when you cut it out,

like make whatever you're gonna make like a person, a car,

or you can fold the paper in into an airplane or something.

I don't hate any subjects. I like every subject.

I have to stay up a little late

because if I go to sleep too early, I wake up in the middle

of the night and then I see that black

thing staring at me in the hallway.

It's some long person.

Him that has long legs.

He's black. He just stares at me.

I see some white eyes...

around the kitchen.

He just stares at me all night

till I go to sleep.

I just see him looking at me at the other room.

Then he just goes away real fast.

You think the man is scared of you?

No.

Basically I'm scared of him.

His name is Kitty.

I was up by myself in the middle of the night at around three in the morning.

To the right side of me I had seen,

um, a black shadow.

I had seen it near the wall of the living room.

It was at the corner of my eye 'cause I was on my phone.

It didn't do anything. And it was there till I went to sleep.

I think that the figure is a ghost of a spirit

that may have died here a long time ago.

It wants this house back and it doesn't want to leave.

And this is weird 'cause I know exactly what he looks like.

When I was 11, I had my first incident. I was sleeping.

I woke up to a man in all black

standing at the foot of my bed.

He actually looked like Kevin from the Backstreet Boys

when he grew his hair out.

It was all black. He had a black trench coat on,

but his face was kind of bright.

He grabbed my ankle, dragged me to the floor.

He kept squeezing on my leg and then he looked at me

and said, "My name was Max."

He held onto my leg for a few more seconds and then let go.

I got away, went back to my bed

and I blinked a couple times and he wasn't there anymore.

I see him often.

I believe that there is something he's supposed

to tell me, something I'm supposed to do

or he's supposed to remind me of something.

I just don't believe

that the same entity is following me for no reason.

From time to time we would like put up a cross

and it would like get knocked down by itself.

We had saw a dead chicken foot fall out

of like the pile of clothes that we had pulled out the closet

and it had fell out there and we didn't know how it got there.

The voices that I would hear are kind of like muffled voices

where you can't understand what they're saying,

but, um, it sounds like people are talking.

Things falling

from a higher place.

The first incident was when I was

around five years old.

I was sleeping in one of the rooms of my house.

I had woken up in the middle of the night

and I had saw a black figure staring at me in the hallway.

So after the incident I told my mom.

She was aware of weird things going on in the house herself.

She had the house blessed and for a while it seemed to work.

But then everything came back to the point where guests

were noticing and seeing things their self.

So we ultimately just moved.

- It appears in this house? -Yes.

'Cause most of the time I don't really wanna be dead.

And I still wanna do other things.

So, what I do is run through the demon.

And why I do it is

because I remember how well if I punch it,

my hands goes through.

What scares you to come wake me up?

'Cause of that black figure.

When I go to sleep,

I do be hearing something in her room calling her name.

I don't know how to explain it though.

I think that that's Max.

The person he's seeing when he wakes up in here.

That's pretty much him because that's what he used to do

to me when I was younger.

He wouldn't say anything but he would just stand

there and actually did.

That's the first time I ever heard him

describe him fully like that.

He just always said a black figure.

He never said anything else about it.

Javier, do you think when you see the person in

the hallway it's a nightmare or is it real?

I think it's real, 'cause one time me

and my brother was up, I seen him over there...

just staring at both of us.

And we was watching Teen Titans so we can go to sleep.

Did your brother see it?

No, 'cause he was already falling asleep and I seen him.

My mom tells me to go to sleep early

because I have school...

so I just try to listen to her.

But then I wake up in the middle of the night again.

I just did that yesterday too. And I seen him.

I think he wants like a...

I guess a camera or my soul I guess.

Because last time I seen him take a camera.

What do you mean? What camera did he take?

Not like that one, but the one you make videos with.

The other night when I was hearing stuff,

when I did go back to sleep and I woke up in the morning

one of the cameras was completely closed.

I-- he didn't tell me this, so I didn't know.

Well, I'm just thinking about it now.

Like I asked everyone in here who closed the camera.

'cause everybody knows that I'm trying

to film while we're all sleeping.

So I don't think

that they would just close my computer like that.

It was completely closed.

Like, and it's a laptop so it's like that.

So when I got up, it was completely closed.

I'm like, "You guys know I'm filming.

Who did it? Who closed that?"

Have you got the footage?

Yeah.

I think it's the one where I-- I brung it

to 23 minutes and change.

It just went off.

It was recording and then it just went off.

Why do you think he wants your soul?

I don't know. Maybe...

he wants to feel stronger or give it to the devil

to make a new demon or something.

Where-- where did you get the idea

that he might want your soul though?

Because after the video I did see something

that looked like a soul 'cause it turned back on.

She knows, she's just shy because she doesn't know you.

-I'm three years old. -See.

-She usually gets a sound sleep and wakes up around six. -

By the time she wakes up, she's already

back in my bed with me.

So... I don't think things are bothering

her too much.

I'm happy about that.

Oh, God.

It's like here they go again.

Heaven!

There you go. Come on, come on,

Come on, come on.

- -See told you, see. It's the light.

She has to have the light off to come back.

-Heaven. - Heaven.

Get in here.

I know her like a book.

No, I haven't done anything like Ouija boards

or anything like that. I just feel like

those would bring in bad spirits.

I do wanna move from this house
