We had a ghost in our house once. My sister used to always whinge about it, but she was a drama queen and just thought seeing ghosts would make her cool.
My mum got some really wack lady to come over and "cleanse" all our rooms, and she made us drink holy water and hang these little pieces of crap made out of twigs in our rooms - my mum and sister did, but me and dad were like "rofl im not drinking that jesus shit". The woman kept talking about the "energy" of the house, and "bad spirits" and all this. I was like 12, but i was smart enough to be thinking "w/e woman get off the crack".
Needless to say the females in this household are completely off with the fairies.
BUT, i have had a few scaries. I used to stay home alot by myself when i was younger cause my parents + sister would always go down to our beach house (i didnt go, its boring).
One time, i really freaked out. My house is really really old and has floorboards right so the house is making noise constantly, but being like 12 or whatever even the slightest creak wheny oure home alone makes you freeze.
So u know, im lying there, hearing creaks and shit, kinda scared but not really. Then all of a sudden i hear this "SHHHHHHHHHH... WOMP" really loud in the room next to mine (which was emtpy at the time). I'm like "OHFUK THEYRE COMMING!!!". After shitting myself for a few minutes, I took my baseball bat (which i position next to my bed for killing baddies) and went into the room next to me, and this room was completely empty except for a matress leaning up agains the wall. If u can imagine the sound, it would have sounded exactly like a mattress sliding down a wall, and then hitting the ground. So yeah, I couldnt figure out wtf made the sound right. So I go back to bed, snuggle right up agains tthe wall (lol - it feels safer). By this time it was pretty late and i just fell asleep. But as i was falling asleep I could see through my window, our sensor light at the front of our house kept going on and off - which scared me a bit, but cats sometimes set it off so i wasnt too worried. Fell asleep.
About an hour later, im woken up by a shuffling sound out the front (my bedroom is the first room from the street). The sensor light was on. it sounded close, not far away enough to be on the footpath, so i'm listening for a bit. If you can imagine someone drunk walking really slowly, thats what it sounded like. Dragging feet, but not in a regular walkig patter. WHoever this was was basically walking around in circles at a completely random tempo. I'm so over this shit by now, that im like w/e ust come and kill me already imm too tired for this, try to get back to sleep. THEN i hear this SHHHHRARAHSHSHSHARAHRHARAR like someone dragging a piece of metal, a pipe or something, down my driveway. My heart stopped, seriously, i havent been that scared ever.this went on for what felt like half an hour then stopped. No foot shuffling no nothing. I stayed awake for a fair bit longer, and eventually just fell asleep i guess.
Woke up the next morning and went outside, there was this massive iron bar in the middle of my driveway, and scratches up and down the concrete (still there i think). So, like wtf?
I still haven't worked this one out 7 years later. Falling mattresses that didnt actually fall, some dude dragging a bar up and down my driveway? Why would u do that?!
