A father has told how his five-year-old son claims he has been troubled by visions of a ghostly man with grey skin who speaks to him in the night.
Dave Gerrity, 41, said his son Dagan first complained about seeing something in his bedroom in the family's Bridlington home around six months ago.
Mr Gerrity said: 'Dagan is scared about it. He cries about it. He's told us that at night he can't sleep because a man with grey skin comes and sits on his bed and keeps him awake talking to him.
'The first time it happened, Dagan's mum Emma and I heard him crying on the baby monitor. I went up to him and he was just crying his eyes out.
'At first I thought it was just his imagination, or he had had a bad dream.
'Of course you never expect this kind of thing to be true, I've never believed in this kind of thing before. But there's no denying it now.
'There have been times when we've been in the room with him and we see him looking up into the corner of the room and speaking.'
Mr Gerrity also told how the 'ghost' was seen shuffling furniture in his son's bedroom.
He added: 'We have a double bed in the room which is balanced on its side, and there's a blue plastic table on top of it.
'Dagan told me that in the night, the table was picked up and moved by itself.
'This table is much too high for him to reach himself. I've put him to bed when the table has been on top of the bed, then come back in the morning to find it moved.

Harry Reid is terrorizing young kids?
He should invite the two brats of viral video fame that threw flour all over the house. Everyone will have pale skin. It’ll be a hoot.
Does he talk football?
Could be. Also possible they have HBO and the kid is catching Bill Maher’s show.
I was thinking John (The Dessicated one) Kerry.
Maybe the kid should sleep with a light on.
LOL Just what I was going to say.
True, Kerry can be mistaken for a bloodless ghoul.
Is he a clown ghost that lives under the bed? They are the best kind.
It might help not to name your kid after an ancient fertility god.

“Balloon Boy II”— looking for a reality show.
He had a nightmare, and it scared him and his parents are feeding into his fears. Let him sleep with his parents until he gets over this little paranoia. Simple.
Bring in a Catholic priest and perform an exorcism and a house blessing. Tables moving is not ghosts, thats a demon(s).
Why, it’s just what Sarah said—”Why the long face John (6 ft.)?”
Why is that? I'm very interested in this stuff.
Could be a grey alien! Break out the video camera with night vision engaged. Have it record all night and see what happens.
They could call Chad, Matt and Rob about it since they have some experience dealing with something like this problem.

My Primitive Baptist grandparents would have agreed with you to an extent. To them, dead and gone was dead and gone, no such thing as a “ghost” in the sense of the spirit of a dead person walking this earth. They would have regarded it as a demon. Wouldn’t have called a priest, though.
