Ever since I moved into my new house, I have
experienced a few odd things. The first few weeks really
creeped me out so I tried to convince my mom to let me stay
at my dad's house (you see, my parents are divorced.) She
tried to calm me down but my eerie feelings about our new
pad really stuck with me.
Sometimes the house seems to have
darker and colder spots in it. For example, I'll walk by
the hallway that connects to my brother's room and my
bathroom and the hall is dark and pretty cold. It's as if
the hall has a gloomy shadow cast over it.
Sometimes I can swear that I hear strange sounds, almost a moaning
coming from various parts of the house. Our place is
extremely creaky as well. We have three levels, and I live
on the bottom next to the garage. The second level is the
front door, the living room, the TV room, my bathroom,
and my brother's room. The third level is the kitchen, the
dining room, my mom's room with her boyfriend, and their
bathroom. I'm the only one who can hear the creaking (being
on the bottom of course) and recently I have become really
sensitive to noises of that degree. My room is also
noticeably colder than the rest of the house. Maybe it's
just because the "central" heating doesn't connect to my
room...or maybe it's because...
Well anyway, this is where the real scary stuff happens.
We've lived here for about eight months and I have become fairly immune to the weirdness involved with the
house. But two nights ago I experienced something so terrifying that I haven't slept a wink in the past 48
hours. This is basically how the events commenced...
I decided to go to sleep at around 11 although I knew
it would take at least two hours before I would fall
asleep. For some reason I have been having major trouble
falling asleep lately. So at around 11, I turned off my
lights, closed my door (I didn't lock it, just closed it)
and hopped in bed. At 12:30 I was so aggravated at that
point...but then I became scared out of my mind.
First I
began hearing weird sounds coming from the wall to the
right of my bed. It sounded like mice crawling around (we
recently found a rat in the kitchen) so I was getting
creeped out. I shrugged and tried to ignore it. As soon as
I closed my eyes though, my door handle made a noise as if
somebody was trying to open my door. The only other people
in the house was my mom and her boyfriend (my brother is in
college) and I knew that they were upstairs in bed. As soon
as I heard that noise I shot up in bed and gasped. I
decided to turn on my TV to calm me down a bit. Then I
got up and figured I should check out my door. When I was
halfway to my door it once AGAIN made that sound, but this
time ten times louder and ten times more aggressive. I
actually thought somebody had broken into the house and was
trying to get into my room! Frozen for about ten seconds, I
suddenly realized that I needed my mommy. I turned on a
light, grabbed my phone, and called my mom. Her boyfriend
answered and I explained the crisis to him. He was frazzled
because I had woken him up with the call. He and my mom
thought I wanted them to go to the front door, so they went
there and started opening that door. I was yelling for him
to come to MY door when suddenly my door started OPENING
very slowly. I screamed at the top of my lungs about twenty
times until my mom and her boyfriend ran to my room and
saved me. They ran in and said nothing was there, but her
boyfriend decided to check around the house for anything
suspicious.
After that, we all sat in my room until 2 in
the morning and then they let me sleep in their room. I
couldn't fall asleep all night...it was absolutely
terrifying.
I'm 90 percent convinced at this point that there is
some sort of strange phenomenon in my house. I also just
found out something kinda weird. My mom, her boyfriend, and
I recently discovered that we have an attic in our house.
We had the exterminator clean it and he found all this old
stuff from the 70s. I believe he found trophies, a TV
set, a bunch of board games, a couch, and other strange
stuff. I'm not sure why that creeps me out, but it
definitely does. I know this story may not sound and
frightening and convincing as it does when I tell it face
to face...in fact, it may have only been scary for me. All
I know is that I won't be sleeping in my mom's house for a
while.
