Reminds of the Erlkonig (The Elf King) who would try to entice away people's children.

I only wanted to comment on the "delivery boy" bit...

When I lived in a haunted dorm, I had an experience where I kept drifting off to sleep and waking up, thinking that someone was going to come through the door. I just couldn't shake that feeling of "someone's about to come in." I finally shook off the sensation in the waking world, telling myself that if my roommate came through the door, no big deal... and I finally drifted off to sleep.

In my dream, a woman dressed in scarlet 70's style clothing came through the door and had a brief chat with me.. she had strawberry blonde hair that waved to her shoulders and she was a bit on the heavier side, she had a very "Mom" kind of look to her, and in my dream I mistook her to be a college staff member from admissions or something. The only thing I recall her saying was something along the lines of "Oooh but you're just so pretty, I could just take you home with me!" (Like how you'd talk about a cute kitten or something, not something ominous)

I was intrigued by the dream since it had occurred in a dream version of my bedroom, with no variations (I rarely dream about the room I'm in). After speaking to a friend about the experience, he mentioned that that nagging "Someone's at the door" feeling is a spirit's way of basically "ringing" your doorbell and asking to enter your astral space. It's supposed to be a polite way to enter your space, with your permission, so that they can speak to you.

A few months after that experience, a student across the hall had a voice teacher visit her who had the ability of physically seeing spirits... the teacher said to her "I can see a lady standing on your balcony.. she's surprised that I can see her." Her physical description matched the woman in my dream exactly, and I had not shared my dream with either person, nor had I met the voice teacher.

The only other time I had an experience like this was when I was trying to locate the spirit of a friend's pet, and felt that same "Someone's knocking" sensation before drifting off to sleep, and in my dream I opened the door to see a cat sitting on the stoop.

I don't mean to imply that this elf fellow is a polite visitor, sounds like he's not... I guess I had somewhat assumed in the past that if a spirit went to the trouble of politely asking to enter your astral space vs. barging in, they were being respectful of your boundaries ... there seems to be a real type of decorum that's involved here. But I'm hesitant to jump to conclusions because it's not like you'd just open your door to ANYONE... if you use a Ouija board in the physical realm, all kinds of low level nasties are clamoring to "get in" and "get closer" and asking you to "let them closer" and polite as they may pretend to be, they are far from.... but I still feel that things are different regarding these rules in the astral than they are in the physical so I don't want to make a parallel of those rules just yet. The only time I met some negative haunting-related spirits in a dream space, they said on a Ouija board that they had "come to the dream fence" to ask us to buy the board, and I don't recall any dreams at all. Somehow I don't think negative entities would be that forward about an approach with trying the "front door"... but again, I don't want to generalize.. I just find it interesting.

Just wanted to comment on the delivery boy experience... there seems to be a bit of a precedence for this and how spirits seek to enter our space. Perhaps it was a more ancient and formal ritual. I am missing the key ingredient for how one would "look through the peephole" and tell whether someone is worth letting in or not, lol. Sounds like you did good at least in that part, Leyla.
