My house is rate scary. It is rate haunted. I've lived in my house my entire
life, and in the same room I have slept for the past 17 years. When I was
around the age of 10, I first started to notice these rate spooky things.
Every night around 1 AM, the walls right next to my bed would be tapped six
times. This would happen once every five minutes until about 1:30 when this
would normally cease.
As a child it would scare me so badly that I would not be able to sleep for
the rest of the night, and it badly affected my sleeping patterns. This
stopped after about a year however, and until a couple years ago I thought
this was the end of it. I was playing World of Warcraft one early morning in
my room (around 4 AM) when something caught the corner of my eye. I turned
to see a full-grown man standing within meters of me. Strangely enough, he
strongly resembled my father so I asked, "What are you doing up?" The man
didn't respond at all, and the next thing I knew he had vanished. I then
thought about the image momentarily and realized he looked much older than
my father and had less hair. I then freaked out and had to turn on every
light in the house and play some rate good Slayer songs to forget about it.
The final thing I've noticed about my room is that around January every year
a pure white light appears on my cupboard door which resembles a face.
Normally one would throw this up to a coincidence from light entering and
being altered due to things getting in the way of the rays of light.
However, this occurs only in January, and there is absolutely no
distinguishable light source for it to be emanating from. The light also
occasionally disappears when I turn away and look back. Also, many people
have issues with cameras and phones in my house, and when my friends stay
the night in my room they say they wake up feeling as if they've not slept
for days.
