The Haunted Trail

“I was shown in a vision a group of witches that hang on our fencing wall,” Chi reported to his Daddy that early morning. “How did you identify what you saw as witches? Perhaps you were experiencing nightmares from tropical malaria attack” the father clarified in low tone loaded with humour. “No Daddy, it was not malaria dreams,” Chi insisted. “The ugly masculine figures with fiery terrifying red eyes were impressed in my mind as witches that have come to attack the family.”

Within few weeks, Chi’s youngest sister became sick with constant fever. All medications that were arranged proved abortive; no treatment was effective. Before long the matter worsened and the need to consult a medical doctor became obvious. This dying baby-Ebube-was quickly taken to the hospital where it was discovered that all blood in her body mysteriously dried up. Urgent blood transfusion was recommended. A pint of blood from the father was quickly administered to her which saved the situation. Later Chi’s revelation was confirmed. A team of demons and witches roamed about in the household with an ugly intention to eliminate life. Grace of God sufficed and the wicked satanic enterprise was averted.
