spooky
When I used to stay at my friends house aged between nine and fifteen, I used to wake up at around 4am every single time I slept there feeling someone watching me from the end of the bed. At first I got scared but then after a while I just got annoyed and learned to ignore it and go back to sleep. Apparently the house was haunted - her stepmum used to wake up in the middle of the night with someone shaking her, and her dad once said he woke up in the night to the sound of someone playing the piano. I don't know how much of it's true, but the house did feel weird. We also used to hear footsteps and bangs in the attic. I am sceptic about it all however.

The most horrible thing that's ever happened to me because it is entirely unexplainable happened one night when I saw someone walk past the french doors in our living room. Both me and my mum saw it, and convinced someone was in the back garden we went into the conservatory (which is next to where the french doors are) to tell them to bugger off. However there was no-one there, and it immediately became apparent that this person would have to have walked through the trellis and the garden chairs to get to where we had seen them. Spooky and horrible.

My best friend used to live next to the graveyard in a house where the previous owner had hung themselves. Lots of spooky occurences in that house, including me seeing a shadow walking along the corridor near the bathroom (in the middle of the day), appliances switching on and off, and my dad (who is the biggest sceptic ever) personally seeing a toy train switch itself on and off. It was a playgroup meeting (my friend has a small brother and I have a small sister) and one of the children had just said 'Wouldn't it be funny if the train stopped by itself?'. It immediatley did, and my dad shat himself.

I'm really sorry, and really pedantic
Meat is hung, people are hanged.
