Weird Experience

I went to Connor Castle and my phone that was on 100% died within 5 minutes. My head was heavy and I'd gotten a migraine that got worse the longer I was there. We were exploring in the outbuilding and as we left i looked back and saw Mollie in graffiti on the wall through was once the window. I looked back and it had vanished. Immediately after I left my headache lifted.
