A Night Alone... At Least I Think So   Author: 58861  Category:(Mysterious) Created:(7/19/2002 10:01:00 PM) This post has been Viewed (317 times) I was alone in my house on Halloween, my boyfriend Mark-- who I had went to the movies with earlier that night to see the movie "Joy Ride"-- having left about a half-hour before. He told me he would call me when he got home, so to pass the time, I was gonna talk to my friend Jessica until I got the beep that the call waiting gives when another call comes in. So I was just chatting away, and considering my boyfriend lived about 2 hours away from my house, I was gonna have a lot of chatting to do. So we were just talking about boys and movies and stuff, and I was lying on my bed downstairs. Suddenly, I heard this noise. There's two bedrooms downstairs and three upstairs, and the noise I heard sounded like the other downstairs bedroom opening and slamming shut. At first I thought it was probably just my imagination, but I still went to my bedroom door and locked it. After a bit, I hadn't heard anything, so I got up and opened my door, stepping into the living room. For a moment I just stood in the middle of the room, whispering to my friend about how freaked out I was. And then I heard another noise, this time upstairs, and it was the sound of someone walking around. I was now beginning to get a little more than frightened, so I ran outside and stood in front of the house. I looked up and in one of the upstairs bedroom windows, the light was on in the room and there was someone looking at me! You can imagine I was scared outta my mind. I hung up on my friend and called my boyfriend's cell phone and he answered with his usual, "Mark's House of Love" thing that he always does when he answers a phone. I immediately started rambling about how I was freaked out, how there was someone in the house that was gonna kill me... "I need you to turn around and come back!" Once I calmed down a bit with his help, I told him what the deal was. Amazingly, Mark had never even left my town. Turns out he had ran into one of his cousins and was at the McDonald's which isn't far from my house. He said he would be over as soon as he possibly could and for me not to worry. I stood outside for another moment then thought to myself, "You know what? I'm not gonna be a chicken. I'm gonna go investigate." So I went back inside, marched up the door to the steps that led upstairs, opened it, and looked up, and there was that guy looking at me again! So I turned right around and ran outta that house! About 3 minutes later, my boyfriend showed up and we went inside and searched the downstairs and found nothing, then went up the stairs, where I had seen the man. Now, all the lights were on upstairs. But Mark and I searched and searched... and we never found anyone upstairs or even near the house. By the way, I am not crazy. How it changed my life: It made me be more wary of staying alone. Now my boyfriend and I live together and if he goes somewhere, I go somewhere. I'm not staying in a house alone again.
