They were usually very lazy at\u00a0night, just lounging in\u00a0their\u00a0dog\u00a0beds\u00a0until bedtime. But that night,\u00a0they all suddenly became very agitated.\u00a0They ran into different rooms, growling and barking at\u00a0empty corners\u2014a behavior they\u2019d never shown before or\u00a0since.<br>I\u00a0checked the entire house but found nothing. I\u00a0don\u2019t believe in\u00a0the\u00a0supernatural, but that night\u00a0I slept in\u00a0my\u00a0parents\u2019 bedroom with the door locked and all three dogs on\u00a0the bed with\u00a0me.\u00a0\u00a9\u00a0letsgoooo90091\u00a0\/ Reddit<br>This happened about six months ago, and it\u00a0still creeps me\u00a0out whenever\u00a0I think about\u00a0it.<br>It\u00a0was close to\u00a0midnight. I\u00a0live alone in\u00a0a\u00a0small house with a\u00a0basement, and\u00a0I was sitting on\u00a0the couch, scrolling through my\u00a0phone before heading to\u00a0bed. The night was quiet, perfectly normal\u2014until my\u00a0Alexa lit\u00a0up.<br>I\u00a0hadn\u2019t said anything. My\u00a0hands weren\u2019t even near\u00a0it. Still, in\u00a0that flat, robotic voice, it\u00a0said:<br>\u201cCheck the basement.\u201d<br>I\u00a0don\u2019t know if\u00a0you\u2019ve ever had one of\u00a0those moments where the silence after\u00a0something creepy feels louder than any sound, but that\u2019s exactly how it\u00a0felt. For some reason\u00a0I found myself getting up\u00a0anyway, like\u00a0I had to\u00a0prove to\u00a0myself it\u00a0was just some random glitch.<br>I\u00a0walked to\u00a0the basement door and opened\u00a0it. The light was on\u00a0down there, casting that faint yellow glow up\u00a0the stairwell. Taking a\u00a0breath, I\u00a0started down.<br>The second my\u00a0foot hit the third step,\u00a0every light in\u00a0the house went out. Total blackness. It\u00a0lasted maybe three seconds at\u00a0most, but that was enough. My\u00a0foot slipped, and\u00a0I landed hard on\u00a0my\u00a0behind, jolting pain all the way up\u00a0my\u00a0spine. Not a\u00a0tumble, not head over heels, just one of\u00a0those ugly, awkward falls that leaves you bruised and shaken.<br>As\u00a0soon as\u00a0the lights flicked back\u00a0on, I\u00a0scrambled\u00a0up, bolted straight out of\u00a0the house, and didn\u2019t stop running until\u00a0I was at\u00a0a\u00a0friend\u2019s place. I\u00a0stayed there that night, shaking and sore, but too scared to\u00a0even think about going home.<br>Later, I\u00a0had a\u00a0technician check the wiring in\u00a0the house. They didn\u2019t find a\u00a0single fault. Everything worked fine, and the lights weren\u2019t even connected to\u00a0Alexa in\u00a0any way. There was no\u00a0reason for what had happened. I\u00a0can\u2019t help but tremble every time\u00a0I have to\u00a0go\u00a0to\u00a0the basement.\u00a0I\u00a0used to\u00a0have recurring dreams at\u00a0my\u00a0sister\u2019s house about a\u00a0little girl with dark hair and pale skin (which are traits my\u00a0sister has, by\u00a0the way) telling me\u00a0that she was staying there because my\u00a0sister reminded her of\u00a0her mother.<br>Months later, my\u00a0niece (only two at\u00a0the time) stopped in\u00a0the middle of\u00a0the steps and plainly said to\u00a0me,\u00a0\u201cHer mom died here.\u201d\u00a0\u00a9\u00a0astro-ponies\u00a0\/ Reddit<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wl-brightside.cf.tsp.li\/resize\/728x\/jpg\/d2b\/4c0\/fb96da5960aace4966347cefe1.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>When I\u00a0was 9\u00a0years old, my\u00a0older sister and\u00a0I were drawing while nobody else was home, and suddenly we\u00a0heard our piano\u00a0keyboard\u00a0playing upstairs. We\u00a0listened and recognized the song\u2014it was\u00a0Fur Elise.<br>My\u00a0sister and\u00a0I slowly went up\u00a0the stairs.

When I\u00a0got there, I\u00a0heard my\u00a0dad\u2019s snoring coming from the couch in\u00a0the living room.<br>I\u00a0thought it\u00a0was strange for him to\u00a0be\u00a0sleeping since it\u00a0was 10\u00a0AM, and he\u00a0typically woke up\u00a0early. But I\u00a0figured he\u00a0was taking a\u00a0nap. As\u00a0I\u00a0walked toward there, the snoring got louder and louder to\u00a0the point where it\u00a0sounded exaggerated.<br>Just as\u00a0I popped my\u00a0head over the couch to\u00a0say\u00a0hi, the sound just stopped.\u00a0Nobody was on\u00a0the couch.\u00a0I\u00a0called out to\u00a0my\u00a0family and nobody answered.
