Ghost Stories

Bedroom Intruder

It started onenight when I was staying up late in my room which was located onthe end of our trailer. I was watching my T.V when I heardfootsteps on the other end of the house. They seemed to be comingfrom the kitchen towards the hallway towards my room.

In all fairness I thought at first it was my stepmother about tochew me out about staying up late agin. Then a feeling of terrorand dread came over me. I had learned a long time ago thatwhenever I had this feeling, somthing unpleasent always followed.For one thing, the footsteps didn't sound right. I can't explainit to this day. There was a walk in closet in my room, I duckedinto the closet in terror and silently searced for somthing Icould use as a weapon. I heard the door to my room open up andthe click of my light cord being pulled. Then I heard whoever itwas going through my drawers. My heart was jumping out of mychest.

At the time nothing supernatural ever crossed my mind. I thoughtot was some crackhead looking for somthing to hawk. I couldcontinue to hear the sounds of my drawers being pulled outcompletely and set on the floor. Then after about five minutes,the noise stopped abruptly, too abruptly. It was like theintruder just stopped frozen in time doing whatever he was doing.Finally I had enough, concern for my family overrode the terrorand I burst open the door. To my surprise my room was completelyuntouced. There were none of my drawers lying overturned on thefloor, my door was shut, and there was no sighn that anything hadbeen molested in any way. Now I was flat out scared.

When I told my stepmom about this. She tried to convince me I wasjust having a nightmare. But I was wide awake at the time. Istill don't know who or what it was. They must have found whatthey were looking for because they never came back.
