Weird Old House
I've been readingthese and decided I should just submit my own experiencesalthough they may not be as exciting, they certainly got to me.
When I was around three years old or so my family moved south toGeorgia and decided to rent a house not too far from my currentresidence. As I grew older, I realized everytime I walked down
the hallway (which was everyday since the bathroom was at the endof the hallway and my bedroom was one of the rooms on the rightside) I had the scariest feeling I was being watched by someonefollowing directly behind me. Some nights it would be so bad thatI'd just turn around and make sure someone wasn't back there.Often I'd even run just to get into the kitchen (through myparents room which was on the left side of the hallway) or getinto the washroom (opposite end of the bathroom which also led tothe kitchen and outside). I never spoke to anyone about thefeeling that I would get although I'd avoid going through thehall anytime I could. One night I had a dream that I was walkingdown the hall and I had that very same feeling again well I gotto the end that led to the washroom and opened the door (the doorwas fixed to automatically shut once it was opened) and wasmaking my way to the door that led into the kitchen but before Ireached the kitchen door the washroom door opened and shut andnothing came through! It was
only a dream but it always felt like it would happen.
One night my parents and I returned from going out to eat and mybrother had stayed home and he had the first bedroom on the rightside of the hallway. He came to my parents as we sat at thekitchen table and said "Did you guys come home anytimebefore you left?" My parents looked at him odd and shooktheir heads. Fear became apparent on my brothers face and he said"Me
and my girlfriend were in my room watching tv and the hall dooropened and shut but we never saw anyone walk by the doorway."We all figured it was just my other brother who must've briefly
came home, however none of us thought to question him.
Other times I would be lying awake in my bedroom with my catsleeping next to me and she would quickly sit up as if she heardsomething or saw something and stare wide eyed at the doorway as
if she was indeed seeing something! It often gave me the creeps,especially since it would be in the middle of the night and shewould be staring out into the hallway. My cousins soon moved inwith us and they came to me and said weird things were happeningin their room like their light bulbs would be unscrewed or thingswould go missing. Of course i dismissed this and thought theywere only trying to get to me.
Once my brothers girlfriend and I were sitting in the living roomlate one night on a weekend and we were watching tv when she said"I need to go to the bathroom...will you go with me?"At first I didn't think anything of it so she and I went throughthe kitchen, through the washroom, and down the hall and I waitedon her. She finished up and we made our way back to the livingroom and finally I thought to ask why she wanted me to come alongso I did. She hesitated for a brief moment then responded "Idon't like being in that hall by myself, it always feels likesomeone is there with me watching me." I couldn't believe it!I had never mentioned this before and she just described myexperiences in the hallway so I told her I always felt that waytoo.
One night I was sleeping in the sunroom we had and I woke upbecause I heard the leaves shuffling around outside and so Ilistened closely. I could hear men talking but I couldn'tunderstand what they were saying, plus they were walking about.It was dead winter so it was quite cold outside and I couldn'tunderstand why anyone would be outside in this weather, at thistime of night, and at the back of the house. Eventually I got tooscared to stay in there and slept in my parents bedroom floor forthe night. Anytime I was outside alone nothing felt right. It wasplain scary outside whether it was day or night. I can't explainit now but it didn't feel right at all. I'd often hear someone orsomething walking around in the woods and I'd never see anythingbut always dismissed it as being a stray cat or dog or some otheranimal.
One night, after I was much older my mother and I were sitting atthe kitchen table with my younger cousin and we were just talking.Somehow the topic came up about my brothers hearing a
woman screaming outside. I must've been too young to remember orI just wasn't home at the time. My mom told me that the boys camerunning to her one night and were scared to death saying theyheard a woman screaming outside in the woods. My mom, of course,was very skeptical and just told them to quit messing around. Thenext morning the police were outside and in the back woods,apparently they found a woman that had been murdered. I can'tremember if she had been stabbed or what. I haven't got a clue ifshe is the reason for all the weird feelings and incidents but itis the only story I know of that could possibly deal with suchhauntings.
Sorry it was so long and sorry if it wasn't scary enough...youshould've been there! I've got other weird incidents but theydon't deal with the house itself and I plan on submitting them aswell. Till next time.
