When I was about three years old I had an experience that affects me severely to this day. It happened in a house in Clerkenwell London in about 1974. I was lying in bed and as I remember I had my eyes open. In my bedroom behind me was a chest of drawers (I think it was yellow) and behind that my fairly newly born brother was asleep in his cot (He was born at home). As I lay there I saw three spirits floating above the chest of drawers behind me. My memory of this is strange in that I think I saw the scene as if from above or at leasI think I did because the spirits were behind me yet I could see them. Anyway these 3 spirits looked like cylindrical swirly gaseous objects maybe 7-8 inches high and floating just above the chest of drawers in a row next to each other. My memory is vague now but I believe they were of not to vivid (i.e pastely) colours, and each one was a slightly different colour. As they floated there they told me that they were now in control of my life and that I had to do as they wanted. That was it. I remember little else if anything about what immediately preceeded or proceeded this experience. All I know is that I still think they may exist and at times I really believe they exist and are still controlling my life (i.e. what will happen to me and others I know and love etc.) Just wondering if anyone anywhere out there has had a similar experience.
