Man Haunted By Ghost Of Disfigured Kid Has Creepy Pics To Prove It & You Don't Want To See Them

'Dear David,' a ghost child with a misshapen head, found in 'comics guy' Adam Ellis a human he could haunt, and one he has been for six months now.

A sketch of David.

Entertaining, yes. Creepy, too. Some warped publicity stunt (he had a comic book coming out at the time he first posted about this)? Can't say.

Last, I have a book coming out next year, but it has nothing to do with David. This isn't viral marketing! It's just a book of funny comics!

When it all started

It was in August, 2017 when Adam Ellis, an illustrator and cartoonist, first started tweeting about David.

"The first time I saw him, I was experiencing sleep paralysis and saw a child sitting in the green rocking chair at the foot of my bed."

Adam, who admittedly suffers from sleep paralysis, says he first saw this disfigured ghost child in a nightmare. It wasn't long before 'it' crossed over to the real world through said nightmares. He had yet another dream where he learnt the ghost's name was David and that he could only ask 'it' two questions and not more. But as is the case with most horror movies, our protagonist didn't stop at the two questions, and in yet another nightmare that came too soon, Adam asked a third. His fate was sealed. [Cue dramatic music]

Shit goes down

Somewhere between learning the name of the ghost child and having constant nightmares, Adam moved to a bigger apartment. This new apartment was one floor up from the ground floor apartment he was already living in. Adam didn't seem to mind. Then again, who minds the extra space? But you DO mind your two cats meowing in the middle of the night sitting in front of the main door.

The cats led Adam to the door, the door to the peephole and the peephole to this:

Is it just me or is is there something in the first photo, right where the bannister meets the shelves? Hiding on the stairs. pic.twitter.com/s1g9bRzOPj

Notice the dark, almost-outline of David?

The suspense was almost too much. Followers were hooked.

This is how I imagine Adam tweeting that ¡°everything is fine¡± ? pic.twitter.com/LY4GC1bgG7

Ominous sounding tweets like this one only added to the whole effect.

I am pretty scared. pic.twitter.com/Z6CZ8c20EA

The full story

Adam installed cameras, recorded footage, saw his cats behaving strangely and even had this dream.

On the pillow next to me was a severed head with a bloody spine attached, snaking down the bed.

Clicked this pic

But here, I messed with the filters on my phone a bit. Tell me this doesn't look like him. pic.twitter.com/Hke8PkdwyG

Travelled to Japan, visited a park and saw this

It felt too similar to be a coincidence. I felt dizzy staring up at it, this kid with a dented head. pic.twitter.com/2SZkiF9gYX

Reached back home and reported more strange activity

Weird things have been happening with the electricity in my apartment this week. (thread)

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 14, 2017

He dreamed the same dream of David he had the first time (the green chair makes a comeback)

In the dream, I saw him in a chair again. I don't have the green chair in my room anymore¡ªthis time it was a recliner I've had for years.

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) November 7, 2017

This time, David was walking towards Adam. Adam kept clicking photos

I felt terrified, but I kept taking photos. David limped closer toward me, never taking his eyes off me. Soon I was face to face with him.

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) November 7, 2017

And this was the result

This is the one that made my heart drop. pic.twitter.com/twjER4W7qo

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) November 7, 2017

Soon after that, Adam stumbled across this crawl space above his apartment

It's REALLY high above the stairs, so I always figured it was impossible to access without some sort of fancy professional ladder. I took this video so you can see how high it is. pic.twitter.com/EROlY4OKVS

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) November 18, 2017

The crawl space was where the noise was coming from

But over the past week and a half, I've been hearing more things above me. A few days after the first sound, I heard a similar thump while I was in the kitchen. Then last night, I heard something small clink to the floor and roll about 6 feet before stopping.

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) November 18, 2017

He noticed something sticking out of the hatch

It looked like dirt but I couldn't tell for certain. It could've been old plaster or something? I glanced up at the hatch and noticed something else peculiar. The edge of something was caught in it, barely poking out. It's hard to see because it's so far up, but I took a photo: pic.twitter.com/ztjdvkV0Fm

Turns out, it was...

I picked it up and realized what it was. It was a small leather shoe. pic.twitter.com/DrT4UYRsky

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) November 29, 2017

But could David just be a ghost looking for help? Adam doesn't think so

It was a feeling I'm used to¡ªit always accompanies David. People tweet at me a lot saying he might just need help, but I'm certain that's not the case. Every time he shows up, I feel a palpable sense of malice.

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) December 13, 2017

Adam then set up a camera in his bedroom to gather more proof of David's existence. This is what he saw

In the next photo, from a minute later, he seems to be staring straight up at the ceiling? Just staring. pic.twitter.com/MoW6CPcKoD

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) December 13, 2017

Then he appears to collapse on the chair. The next dozen photos are all the same. He's completely lifeless. At first I'd thought he was dead, which obviously doesn't make any sense. I looked over at the chair half expecting him to still be there but it was empty. pic.twitter.com/yA5MltIp0i

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) December 13, 2017

He was on the bed. Inches from me, staring down at me sleeping. pic.twitter.com/MOtQEgTLma

Here's the final photo on the scroll. pic.twitter.com/LkkpiEbBnr

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) December 13, 2017

Soon after this, Adam was off to spend the holidays with his family

Hey everyone¡ªI'll be gone for the next week, visiting family back home in Montana for the holidays. It'll be nice to get away from all this for a bit. Thanks for everyone's kind words lately. I'll see you when I get back.

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) December 20, 2017

He admitted to feeling better while away from scene of all this activity. Once back, Adam has the familiar of being stalked by David's ghost and reports this

In the morning, as I was getting out of the shower, I glanced out the window and noticed tracks behind the garage. pic.twitter.com/ue6qmmQKgq

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) January 3, 2018

He could feel his presence at night

And worse, I still feel him at night. Watching me from different corners of my room. Always getting closer, and waking up right before something happens.

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) January 3, 2018

Some days later, Adam has what he thinks is another nightmare. It's worse

Then he was hovering above my bed, staring down out me, his mouth moving faster than it should be. I couldn't move¡ªI could only look up at him.

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) January 3, 2018

When I caught my breath I retrieved my phone from the dresser. The photo roll showed nothing of note, save for the last photo, taken just a moment before.

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) January 3, 2018

I don't know what to do. I'm at a loss here. I just don't know.

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) January 3, 2018

A week later, Adam admitted to feeling better. He came online again to check his notifications and share a few updates. Some of his followers reported spotting some weird there as well

Long story short, I went to brunch on Saturday with a friend. I posted a few photos to my story, and they were fairly unremarkable. Here's the first two I posted. Totally dumb and normal. pic.twitter.com/t7Y0DT28qu

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) January 17, 2018

Do you see it?

This is what somehow got uploaded to my Instagram story: pic.twitter.com/kr2vBBs4K4

¡ª Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) January 17, 2018

Adam had a few things to say about it

Maybe I can. I know what it looks like. What it probably is. But I don't know if I care anymore. I really just want things to be normal again and things feel normal enough right now. I don't know. I guess I'll keep you updated if something else happens.

— Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) January 17, 2018

Not before leaving, for now, on a positive note

please dont worry about me. I'm ok and everything will be like it was before :)

In case you want to catch up

Ellis has made a Storify of all his 'David experiences' that he updates regularly. Plenty of creeps right here.

I made a Storify of all my Dear David threads for easier viewing. I'll keep it up to date. https://t.co/NcZm0ZXXTJ
