Actually, quite seriously... and this is no joke...
I used to live in a townhome that I bought from some guy who said it was his mom's townhome. The dude was in his 60's and I don't remember if he directly said it or it was implied but I think his mom died in the house.
As cozy as it was, I never quite felt at home there while I was single and after I got married - even with all the influence from a woman's touch it still did not feel any cozier. There was something apprehensive about the house. Even my wife pointed out that the house was not warm and had some bad aura or some dark feeling to it.
One time my wife and I had some bad fight and she left to her parent's house. I spen the night alone and entire house was creaking and sounded like someone was there. I even had the light on downstairs(yeah, I'm a little bitch, so???). Finally, after restless night I was getting ready to leave the house when I heard all this like whisper-chatter... something indiscernable but sounded very mean and evil. It was getting louder and louder. I just grabbed my jacket and almost ran out of the house. As I was pulling away, I could have sworn I saw the blinds in the upstairs window move - and that's the room I wasn't even in all day!
That was a very creepy experience...
