So...your parents are very strict mainstream Christians and you are trying to discover your own spirituality, hiding your practices from them.
The vision and subsequent appearance may have been trying to scare you back into the hardline belief system that you have been trying to escape.
It typically happens whenever people approach gnosis in any way.
Not that you couldn't attain gnosis within the Christian path. It is indeed a valid way. It's just that the focus would be different. It would be more of an inward journey, not preoccupied with many of the things that hardliners focus on.
