The Eyes
I was a lot younger than I am now, probably around 15/16 and my Dad had gone out for the night. When he used to go out, I used to move my PlayStation to the front room because my dog prefers to chill downstairs and it was a summer night. So I would keep the back door open so my dog could go in and out when they felt like it. I had been playing my PlayStation for a while and it had gotten dark outside and I started to feel uneasy like something was watching me. My dog seemed to be alerted to something and I looked to my right where we have 3 huge windows. I saw two eyes staring back at me, I felt so panicked I froze and was sat there staring at it. Then it was like a realisation hit me, I jumped up and looked to my left remembering the back door was open. My dog had ran outside and the eyes was gone. I ran to the back door to see my dog watching the corner where the side gate alleyway comes out from behind the wall. I could see the same eyes almost turned on its side holding onto the wall staring at me. I started screaming for my dog to come inside so she spun and ran to me and the figure started running towards the door. I just about managed to slam it closed behind my dog and lock the door. Then the door handle started jingling so I knew I had just made it so I grabbed my PlayStation closed the curtains and returned upstairs. To this day, I still have no idea what that was.
Mystery knocking and music
One night me and Jordan were a bit hungry it was a little after 1am I believe so I went downstairs to make us some toast. So I’ve gone down, got the bread out toasted it and now I’m buttering it. As I’m doing the third piece of bread iI heard three knocks come from behind me so I froze for a second and turned around quite shaken up trying to make sense of the situation. Maybe it was the wind blowing something on the window I don’t know but I got scared an called Jordan to stay on the phone with me until I went back upstairs as everyone in the house was either upstairs or sleeping.
Not long after I’ve gathered the courage to go back down and I believe this time it was for a drink so while I’m going down the stairs I thought I heard talking as I got closer to the bottom but no lights we’re on. So I assumed someone was grabbing a snack or something so I slowly made my way to the kitchen but, no one was there.
Then I noticed Jordan’s dads phone downstairs off but playing music.
I turned on the light and paused it asking Jordan if that’s normal and he said its the phone he uses for music but Jordan’s dad hadn’t come down all night which made no sense as to why it was playing. So I went back upstairs terrified.
I have still no idea what that knocking was or where it had come from.
