Spirit sighting

Image Credit: CC BY 2.0 Ed Schipul 3 years ago my dad passed away suddenly from a heart attack in his sleep. I was devastated and still miss him terribly. Last week I had been watching Ghost Adventures and feeling a little inspired, I thought I'd have a go at taking some camera shots using my iphone. I turned off all the lights in the lounge and talked to my dad as if he were still here, telling him that I was attempting to capture a photo of him.

I pointed the phone at the spot on the sofa where he used to sit when he came to my house and started clicking away. The room was in complete darkness apart from when the flash would go off on the camera. After about 5-6 shots I switched on the lights to review the pictures, there was an orb above the sofa on one of the shots. I still thought it might have been questionable so i turned off the lights and began clicking away again. After repeatedly clicking for about another 15-20 shots, I saw a figure of a man sitting on my sofa. It happened so fast on the pre flash light, I was so shocked that I gasped out loud. A split second after I saw him what felt like a massive ball of heat hit me in the chest and radiated from my toes and out of my head. I immediately switched on the lights and sat there a bit dumb struck and tried to process what had just happened. The image had not been caught on camera, but I know what I felt and saw was real. I would like to know if anyone else has experienced anything like this. I don't know if the figure I saw was my dad, I really hope it was. I don't know whether to feel scared or relived. The next morning whilst I was vacuuming my hallway, I heard a voice call out 'MUMMA!' for a split second. I thought it was one of my children but I was alone in the house. Then about an hour after that I was coming into the hallway again when I saw out of the corner of my eye a black shadow that moved exactly like a cat coming down the last 3 steps of the stairs and into the kitchen. It moved really quickly and even though I tried to follow it I knew it wasn't a real cat.

To say I'm a bit scared now is an understatement, can't tell anyone about this because I know how crazy it sounds. I don't want anyone to tell me things that are going to frighten me more....I just miss my dad and wanted to know if he was watching over us. I would be grateful for any info, thanks.
