Roughly what age is she? It might decrease naturally with age.

One scares her so much that she won't sleep in her room anymore. I have told her to confront this spirit to find out what it wants.

Your daughter could be imagining it - You can test your daughter for ability without letting her know. For example ... 3 types of test below (or make up your own but don't tell her she is being tested)

(1) Get out some old photographs of relatives who have passed on. Give her no clue what you are doing, refer only to ones still on earth she would know and see if she recognizes others or provides information she wouldn't know by normal means.

(2) Next time she sees someone, you send out a mental request for certain information to be supplied to your daughter and see if it occurs

(3) invent a friendly spirit for a short while, describe this friendly spirit in detail pretending you can see how she is dressed, etc. Then ask daughter if she can see this too, if she says she can see it too, you have more reason to favour she is just impressionable and it is probably her imagination. Do not keep the invention up long. Finish it by telling her the friendly one has come to take the scarey one away to where she belongs.

I tell her to ask it what she can do to help her. My daughter doesn't want to even be in the room with her.

Why get the daughter to do this? If you believe spirits are real, why don't you mentally ask for these to be taken away?

She just runs out and says that the girl is too scary looking. Says that she looks dead, dark black eyes and long blond hair.

Any 'spirit' scaring a child intentionally or unintentionally, isn't the sort of 'spirit' you would want anyway, regardless of whether your child has natural ability or not. You wouldn't invite a stranger into your home, so why invite any 'spirit' without some discernment, don't feel flattered, honoured, question it.

I want her to accept this gift if she can and learn how to deal with this so that she isn't scared.

I am not sure I would call being scared a gift. A talent is something under control ... if she does have a ability it will emerge again later in life when she is more ready to develop it... and may develope a gift perhaps.

Is there anything I can do to help calm her down or help her get through this? Please and thanks

Take all the stress out of it usually works. Don't encourage it, don't discourage it, don't make a big deal of it just be calm and reassuring if she is upset. Don't reward her for seeing anything correct. Don't tell her what she is seeing is false either. Be more calm, positive and nonchalant so the daughter feels like that around you too. See what occurs naturally after that.

If it persists in an unwanted manner to child, get advice from both a child psychologist and also an evidential medium, neither actually need to speak to the child directly. The psychologist will give you advice and mediums usually claim they can remove it remotely. One or the other might help.
