21. Multiple men breaking into the apartment.
Was having a shower when I heard several rowdy male voices in the hall. I only had a towel with me. Fucking thank gawd the bathroom had a window and my retired neighbor was out in his backyard gardening. They heard him yell that he had called the cops and they took off…. with my lingerie. Even after we had an alarm system installed, I never felt safe in that house again. Moved.
22. Homeless man living in the attic.
This is not me, but a friend of my mom’s. She noticed strange things in her house, food depleting faster than usual, wet towels when she didn’t remember having a shower, unlocked doors when she was sure she locked them, etc. this went on for months until she had to get something from her attic, and found home made sleeping quarters, mini fridge, hot plate, television, etc. every night a homeless person would climb a tree and sneak into her attic through a window that had a broken latch. She called the cops, they found the guy, she never pressed charges, let him stay for free for 3 months, and now he pays a small amount of rent and lives there legally. Apparently he was a really nice guy that just wanted a home to sleep in. He helps with maintenance, mows the lawn, etc. went from being creepy to a pretty cool story.
23. The ghost of his grandpa.
My grandfather passed away in 08. He was a big fan of opera music and would blare it in the morning if they ever had any grandkids sleeping over. About a week or two after his funeral, I was lying on my bed when I began to hear a scraping sound. I looked at the direction the sound came from to see a clock radio on the top shelf of my desk turn toward me, sliding across the desk, to face me and it started playing all by itself. The music it was playing was opera music. I’m not jumping to the conclusion that this was paranormal, but the timing and event was interesting.
