Comment from C. Gale Burnett
Hi! You post this as general fiction. Might it have been true? So much of that story is almost identical to the memories I hold of living in an 1800's built farmhouse (as a child) and experiencing the exact same goings on as you described in your story and much more. It was so creepy, but I loved the farm and the old house.
This is a great ghost story. I could vividly picture the child and her bedroom. I could feel the suspense rising as I was reading.
Well done and a great contest entry!

Cute story. Now that is a fun ghost story. I wasn't afraid at all. Personally, I believe that things like this happen all of the time. You did a good job of conveying this. It is very believable.
Nice job.

All were hanging on my wall.
It was in the summer, in the middle of the night, how cliche? (This should be two sentences.)
I did not have a lot of room in my bedroom. It was smallish.
The story is quite cute, but I'm afraid you have numerous redundant statements you would do best to eliminate.
You say your bedroom wall is covered with Rick's posters, then you follow it by saying they were all on the wall.
Again, repetitive. Several sentences are used to say your room is small. One sentence would suffice.
There are similar repeats of a sentence's main thought throughout. Still, I like the premise of the story.

A fascinating story and I've never heard of Rick Springfield, so all this was a learning curve for me and I will go and listen to his music now! I enjoyed your ghost story, it is inventive and endearing, love Dolly x

This is a great spooky story. If you're going to be haunted, it may as well be Rick Springfield. Who can forget Jessie's girl and his other hit whatever it was? This is an excellent contest entry and will do well in the voting booth.

Comment from Dean Kuch
I would've loved to have been haunted by Charlie's Angel Farrah Fawcett back in the day, Anonymous Author. Her, or actress Jamie Lee Curtis would've work just fine.
What happened to you does seem odd and what you stated about your father doing renovations on the house makes sense, at least from a paranormal perspective.
Thank goodness you weren't in love with any member of the band from Blue Oyster Cult.
That might've been ugly!
Best of luck to you in the contest.
