Ok alot of people are saying to continue encouraging her gift which is great! But bad spirits also come to children as good spirits to lure them in then attack. I would go with the advice of some of these comments and contact a medium to see what exactly you are dealing with.

It’s probably normal. She’s probably been exposed to death and the like with the state of current events and this is her way of coping with it. Kids hear more than we think, when we talk about bad people in the world & people getting hurt or sick, they may not understand it but they hear it. If she becomes scared, then I would start to worry.

I believe that children can sense the spiritual world. Some kids are more sensitive to it. I was one of those kids. I told my parents so many things that freaked them out. Well, I had an imaginary friend name Casor. He was a black man. My parents thought it was strange that I had a grown man as my imaginary friend.
Well, it turns out that there was a man named John Casor who was one of the first slaves in Virginia in the 1600s. Before slavery, both whites and blacks were had as indentured servants. They made laws to make indentured servitude illegal. Problem is that they only applied that law to white people. They decided that black people were not people, so the law didn’t apply to them. They ended up turning them into slaves. John Casor sued for his freedom sometime around all of this. He became the first legal slave, for life.
We lived in Kentucky. Thing is, Kentucky didn’t break off on its own until the 1700s. So, what is now Kentucky, would have been part of Virginia back in the 1600s when John Casor was alive.
I can’t find any info on when/how he died.
It’s hard to believe that’s a coincidence. Casor is not a common name, and I definitely hadn’t heard the name Casor, as a child. Idk how else I would have come up with that, unless I was really seeing a ghost.
I would say not to worry unless it is starting to cause harm.

That doesn’t sound imaginary sounds like a Spirit yes I ncourage her gift but also teach her how to protect herself energetically and I would contact a medium and see they can help you both because obviously you cant see what she sees or hears what she hears and also councling and rule out any mental health issues to make sure but it sounds like she has a spirit or spirit guide definitly look into it

When i was a toddler until i was school age i can stil vividly remember my friends, kinga & kirby. They were as real as my mother and father were. Those werent their real names. I remember their names were very strange sounding to me and i could not pronounve them so i called them kinga and kirby
They were maybe 50ish and dressed quite differently than we dressed. The woman had a long skirt and heavy thick sweater she always wore and a box kind of black hat with a big pin that seemed to hold the hat to her head. The man always wore an old looking grey suit and a long wrinkled tie. They told me lots of stories and my mom set a place for them at the dinner table even. It wasnt until i was lots older that i realized no one else could see them but me. When i look back now, i realize they must have been dead. My childhood was so enriched by the time i spent with these invisable friends! I believe your daughter has the same gift and although we really dont understand it, it exists.

Is it possible she may have seen something on tv, or perhaps heard someone talking about things that would be scary to a child, my 5 year old granddaughter has such a wild imagination, so I can relate, there are child counselors who can help, if you feel it’s needed, most times childhood imaginary friends just one day go away, if she is frightened, then def would consult a professional, also is she an only child, I would just keep a close eye on the situation unless she feels threatened, then one day Sally will just be a childhood memory

Sage your home as a precaution, but make sure you have a window open so that negativity can go and leave (if not, you’re going to bounce it from room to room and it won’t leave). Children are way more sensitive than adults are, and the sage should clear out the negativity. “Sally” and her mom may not have died in your home/area - they may have attached themselves to things, or their murders may not have been recorded depending on when it happened, or you may have a negative spirit trying to fool your child.

Children can see what we can’t, unfortunately this is more than likely a spirit, and not imaginary. Children are hyper sensitive to what we cannot see but you can teach her how to conserve her energy and how to use her gift safely. I was about her age when my gifts started coming in and my was so scared for me but learned early on how to protect myself when speaking with them.
Feel free to message me, if you have any questions.

My oldest son had imaginary friends named Jimmy and Michael. They did everything together. Jimmy was the little one and Michael was very tall. They played together daily…until I apparently ran Michael over in my driveway one day and Jimmy ran away scared because of it 
he was so upset with me. Cried off and on for days over this. And told everyone that I killed his friend Michael, I had to explain things to strangers in public. And for months afterwards, everytime I gave him trouble, he would bring up the time I killed Michael in my driveway like it made up for him being naughty.
Me: I don’t appreciate you speaking to me that way!
My son: Well I don’t appreciate you running my friend over

Please be careful what she hears and watches on TV.Those different influences can upset her growing mind.

If she is not watching certain things on tv or hearing it from someone else then I am 90 percent sure she is telling the true and she is gifted kids at that age can see the dead and it seems like she is really gifted if she’s telling you what happen to them that also means she can hear them as well. Don’t ignore it and don’t be afraid let’s see how long it last and if she will grow out of it but I believe she is telling the truth and is gifted don’t let anyone tell you different or that she crazy or it’s evil or one comment that I read that said sage her etc. your her mom there no one better than you to believe in her.

Sounds like a spirit. My kids used to see them when they were younger. I questioned them about them because I was curious. Personally, I’d ask for a last name if possible and do some research on the area. Maybe go to the library or city hall, somewhere you can get into archives of old newspapers or information on the area.
My kids saw a man and his son. The man used to scare my kids away when they played with the boy. My son told me they were killed in a fire but were watching for the mom and sister. We found out there actually was a fire and a few people died. Kinda creepy.

I definitely believe kids are more in tune with spirits and such…when my daughter was 4 she kept talking about wanting a sister. I always told her she was my only child and it was going to stay that way. One day she came up to me and said, Mommy, I know I’m your only daughter now, but I also know you had a baby a long time ago and she lives in heaven, and that’s why I can’t have a sister, and it’s ok. I was dumbfounded and freaked out, because she had no idea that 3 years before I had her, I had a horrible miscarriage and almost died. I always felt that that baby was a girl, but I never talk about her because it was with an ex an my husband doesn’t like talking about it… Once my daughter saw how upset what she said made me, she tried saying she was joking but what 4yo would joke about something like that?? I knew she was being serious. She said she dreamed about it and that’s how she knew.

Well you might have ghosts but if Sally was a bad spirit you would probably be seeing other signs of her in your home. If Sally is a spirit then it sounds like she isn’t doing any harm.
Aaaand it’s also possible she was just exposed to some media that contained this sort of storyline so she’s giving Sally a past in her imaginary world.

When my youngest was about 5 or 6 he had an imaginative mind. He had a made up friend for a few months and it started getting weird/ I didn’t like it.
So one day at the park I drove off and said, “Oh no I left your friend at the park!”
My son said “Can we go back and get him?”
I said, “No I think it’s time he finds a new family”
And then he just got over it and I was secretly glad he got over it.

As a kid i had an “imaginary friend” her name was sally and she wasn’t nice. It became unsafe, my mom sent me to psychiatric hospital to get me away from this “imaginary” friend. She has light brown and wear a purple dress. To this day i have seen her in my dreams. Shes attached to me still. We cleansed the house and I constantly had to tell her to go away.
I think she may have a gift I have a picture of my grandma on my wall and one day my son just randomly started drawing hearts on the picture and told me “Mommy I know this granny I saw her the other day and I like her” he’s only 6 years old and the fact that he also said she looks like my mother(who is her daughter) made me believe she probably came to check up on him she also passed away years before he was born…

So… i grew up in a haunted house. Whole family were apparently murdered and buried what was now our backyard back in like the 1800s or something. I used to communicate with them and often hung out with the little girl. I wasn’t the only one who saw her or felt all their presence. I remember it to this day. That being said, once everyone else started communicating with them they started harming my family and breaking shit around the house. So in my opinion, just to be safe, cleanse your home, property and child.

Sally, Tally & Callie…sound like pretty common rhyming names for an imaginary friend.
Child psychologists have studied children and their imaginary friends for years. Research has shown that extremely bright & gifted children have the most vivid imaginations.
I would go along with the friends, she’s not hurting anything.
My friend had “Delva,” she looked just like Whoopi Goldberg from Sister Act. Her mama set a place setting for Delva every night. We were sad that her “Delva” and my “Josie & Petie” couldn’t get along.
She’s fine and very smart. Let her be. Encourage her imagination!

There was a story about a little boy who told his story about his previous life, he was a black women who was killed in a house fire. And he explained it all in detail to his mom. Who then looked it up, and it happened to be true. Maybe she was sally in a past life.
I don’t want to scare you.
But the BEST thing you can do is continue asking questions in a curious/ conversational way, and SUPPORT her. It may be a phase, it maybe imaginary friend, ghost, or whatever it may be, but the best thing you can do is research, educate, and support your daughter.

I have a theory about this. If correct then your daughter is communicating with a spirit. My theory is that as adults we use a small percentage of the brain. But as babies are growing and soaking in everything, they are using a much higher percentage of their brain which naturally decreases as they get older.
I believe that there are some really gifted adults that can communicate with the dead, this is because their percentage didn’t decrease as much as the average adult. Simple really.

This same exact thing happened to my sister with 1 of her little girls and she too would tell my sister about the girl and her family members and how they were killed and slept and the bath tub…while being in that house they caught numerous things on their home cameras their dog would sit and watch out the window and growl and there were several times we’d hear running upstairs yet everyone was downstairs and lights would shut off and on toys would go off…so she did research on the land for weeks of where her address was and found out that way back in the day a family was murdered by their father and it talked about a cellar under ground and we found it!!! So that’s interesting…not trying to scare you but that’s just what happened however I did stop going to their house due to wired things happening and they soon moved and her daughter now 13 and hasn’t had and episodes since that house!
My mom told me that I had an imaginary friend when I was little. When I quit talking about her my mom asked where she was and I told her she died. Mom also figured out I was watching the news and telling her the neighbors did all the horrible stuff from the news. I don’t remember any of it.
I’d be careful. When i was a kid i had an imaginary friend too. It turned out a lot worse than my mom anticipated. But there were a lot of signs beforehand.
If she’s talking about Sally dying a long time ago by being shot i would be careful because it could be a demonic spirit pretending to be a child, but thats not to worry you. If you’ve never noticed anything weird where you currently live and have lived there a while you should be good and its probably just her true imagination
I had 3 imaginary friends until the age of 8. My cousin imagined her friends so real that she made granny hold their hands crossing the road instead of hers. She was 6 at the time. I don’t think there’s anything to be worried about
This is absolutely normal UNLESS your daughter starts saying things like “Sally hit me” and is literally crying in pain, or “Sally says I’m going to hell if I do such and such” or “Sally says I’m supposed to set mommy on fire” etc. These could be signs of a mental illness sprouting. But in general most kids have these imaginary friends. My son had a few and they all had similar names (Fifi, Jojo, BoBo) but then there was Nathan. Nathan was “my big brother who lives in the sky with Jesus.” I had a miscarriage a couple years before my son was born and I’ve always felt like “Nathan” might have been a little soul that never became an official person and he comforted my living son. Idk. I feel like Sally is either a soul hanging out with your daughter or something she completely made up for the fun of it. Sounds innocent to me.
Shel be fine she could be just making up imagination story’s which is great for her age Nd will help with free wrighting in school years I wouldn’t be too worried about it my son kept telling 2 years aho he has another kyle inside his neck… as you could imagine I freaked and rang the doc to see if this is a psychological problem and he laughed and told me kids come out with all sorts it’s ok… he hasn’t said anything this year about “other kyle” and is still using his imagination
I’d recommend counseling to figure out what happened. Did she sneak in the other room while you were watching a movie or TV program where someone was killed? Did she hear this on the news? Kids hear more than we think and then their imaginations get involved and then parents get scared or confused.
She’s probably afraid to get in trouble so she won’t tell you (or may not know) how she knows these things.
My imaginary friend as a child was named jay jay and come to find out it was a relative of ours that passed actually on my birthday along long time before i was even born. Children are prone to spirits more than adults tbh. As long as “sally” isnt hurting her i wouldn’t be worried.
I had a bit of a problem like this with our autistic daughter. She kept saying a name over and over again but she’s nonverbal for the most part. It freaked me out so I looked up the name, it was of someone who had died in the 1800s. I’m still freaked out.
