Written Confession: The Haunted Hospital's Biting Ghost Boy

The following written confession was shared via email:

I had surgery on my spine in 2013. It was major surgery and I was most definitely under the influence of pain medication . However , if I hallucinated it ,I had company… my daughter went with me to Seattle(Swedish Hospital) when I had my surgery and I had a private room where she also had a nice bed/living space as I would be there for awhile post surgery. I had told her my IV meds were making me drowsy and I was going to nap. She said she would as well. I remember dozing off and then hearing a noise at the room entrance. I opened my eyes and standing there was a little blond boy around 4 maybe 5 years old. He had freckles. And was missing one of his front teeth. I asked him if he was lost in a soothing voice and he slowly walked over to me and smiled .. then just bit my arm! I jerked back and he was just gone. I’m sitting up in bed and I had pulled tubes out of my spine and my daughter ran over and pushed the nurse call button and I told her I had just had a bad dream and described it and when I had finished she looked at me with big eyes and said what’s that, pointing at my arm. And there was a bite mark.. one tooth missing. Well the nurse came in.. and as she did her stuff and taped and shoved tubes etc.. we told her what had happened and she looked at the bite. She said she would ask around etc.. she even looked at security tapes.. and in the security footage she saw me talking to someone that wasn’t there, jerking my arm away .. all that. But no little boy. .. my surgeon came in for rounds and she told him.. he looked me dead in the eyes and replied “ oh yeah this hospital is haunted.. we have OR(operating rooms) that are closed off and no longer used and sometimes when you are passing by you’ll hear horrible screams.” I couldn’t get released fast enough. But thankfully I had no other encounters.
