Never in my wildest dreams would I have ever imagine I would be where I am today. I'm one of the world's best known Paranormal Investigators. Sure I have done all the fancy TV shows, been to all the most famous haunted locations. I have also been a guest speaker at a few events over the years. Hell I even had my own radio show at one point in my life talking about nothing but the paranormal. But none of that matters anymore to me, not since it cost me to lose one of my best friends and corporate sponsor.

It all started about 5 years ago I was out with a group of my friends looking for the next paranormal hot spot as we like to call it. We screeched high and low for a new haunted location that has been untouched by other paranormal groups in the area. For weeks we had found nothing.

On our way home one night from doing a private home investigation my best friend Kate had made a wrong turn and we ended up in the wrong part of town. It was about 6 o'clock in the morning and the sun was just beginning to rise. From what I could tell by looking out the window that all the homes were boarded up with ply wood, there was words writing on the ply wood like 'Gas & water off'. Block after block all the houses looked the same, all boarded up with writing on them.

It all seemed like we have entered a ghost town of some kind. I pulled out my camera and started to take pictures, after all you never know when you may catch something on camera. As I begin to take picture my other best friend Jen who is sitting in the back sit starts to complain.

"Sweet mother Mary, Kate you need to pull over I have to pee" Kate and I both burst out into a fit of laugher, we both warned Jen last night to not over do with the coffee and energy drinks. But of course Jen never listen's to us, every twenty minutes she kept having to get up and go pee. I have a strong feeling that when we make it back to our apartment and review our evidence all we are going to hear in the home owners toilet flushing.

Kate quickly turns down a side street, well she thought it was a side street. Turns out it was a road that led us to a train station. From the outside it looked as if it was in pretty good shape. Kate parked the car and Jen quickly got out. There was 2 sets of doors, Jen tried the first one but it was locked. Then she tried the second door and it was locked as well.

"Shit! What am I going to do, I have to go. I don't think I can hold it for much longer" Jen says as she squeezes her legs together.

"Well do you honestly think that you would even find a working bathroom in this place? By the looks of it, I don't think anyone has been in here for at least 20 years"

"No but…shit I don't know"

Kate reaches in the glove compartment and pulls out a wad of tissues and hands them to Jen and says,

"Here take these and go pop a squat somewhere" Kate says to her while handing out the tissues

"You have got to be kidding me, you want me to pop a squat right here out in the open are you out of your mind Kate"

"Jen look around you this place is abandon, no one is going to see you" I say agreeing with Kate.

"Fine!" she grabs the tissues from Kate and runs off to the far corner of the parking lot.

I start to look around this old train terminal, I see a little sign that is hanging off the side of the building.

Seattle Central Terminal Built 1929-1979.

Wow I wonder why it was only in use for 50 years, the only thing I can think of was maybe because of the neighborhood. I guess I'm going to have to do a little googling on this place.

"Ana Kate Come over here and look at this" I hear Jen calling out to me and Kate and we both go running over to find Jen. When we get to her she points and we both look to find what looks like a garage door opened leading into the train station.

"Come on let's go and check this place out" Kate says while rubbing her hands together. Kate has always been the dare devil of the three of us. I think it's because she knows her parents will always be there to bail her out of jail if the matter calls for it.

I know trespassing is a big no no but I have yet to find sign saying no trespassing. When we walk in I am blown away. The floors even though are covered in about an inch of dirt I can see they are marble and have this beautiful pattern on each tile. The whole inside looks as if it has been gutted. There are windows and doors missing from what appears to be old shops.

I look up to see the ceiling and all the light fixtures are missing, even the light bulbs are gone. But this place is big, bigger than I thought it was. We come to the middle of the building, on both sides from where we are standing are 2 very large rooms. I start to walk into the room on my right, there are three doors.

Just as I was about to step foot inside I here Kate say, "Jen did you freaking see that?" Well that caught my attention. "Kate what is it?"

"Ana I think I seen a shadow person walk across the mezzanine up there"

"Kate are you sure? Because we have been up for 24 hours"

"Yes I'm almost 100% positive I seen a shadow person"

"Alright before we start going nuts and chasing this shadow person that you saw I think we need to do some digging about this place, find out this history and see if it's even worth getting into"

"Yeah Ana is right we need to find out more about this building" Jen says.

The three of us head out the say way we came in. I can't help but think that we might have just hit the lottery with this one.

A shadow person (also known as a shadow figure, shadow being or black mass) is an alleged paranormal entity. It is believed by skeptics to be a type of hallucination where the subject perceives a patch of shadow in their peripheral vision to be a living, humanoid figure.

Ok so tell me what you think. Do you think I should keep going? If it makes you feel better Christian will appear soon, maybe the third chapter.
