Backward-Leg Man
Our house is pretty old, and it was formerly a pig slaughter house. When we renovated it, we found six doors, no windows-aside from the ones we have. It’s a small, one floor house with an unfinished basement. I have grown up in the house, and I’ve had my share of weird ass shit happen. Typically your normal ghosty business: items misplaced, strange noises, voices, doors opening, etc. Our basement was never the creepy part though, it was the hallway leading to my bedroom. I hate that fucking hallway. It’s a straight shot, teen feet deep from the kitchen, I suppose. Nothing to bat an eye at. But I’ve always been terrified of it.
I was probably twelve or thirteen, still in middle school. At the time I had a desktop computer that I was ALWAYS on. I spent hours on it, constantly. I was up until four on it, then got up at seven for school, etc.
One night, I noticed that I kept hearing weird noises in my hallway. Like stomping, I guess, but not as loud. My door handle jiggled a bit, but nothing too creepy (for me, anywho). I assumed it was my dad or something of the nature.
After a while, I had to pee, so I got up and opened the door.
Silence.
Okay, cool. Whatever.
I flipped on the hall light and went to the bathroom. After I was done, I opened the door and looked into the kitchen.
Our kitchen is really small with a island-table in the middle of it. Behind that, I saw a figure. I thought maybe it was my mom and she was crouched down picking something up, so without thinking, I call out to her.
No answer.
Now I’m a little on edge, so I say ‘Mom?’ again a little louder.
The figure shifted and came into the light of our security light shining through the window.
It wasn’t my mom.
It was a figure on all fours.
His elbows were bent backwards, and his legs looks backwards too. He didn’t have hands, but feet. He didn’t have a face that I can remember, I just see it as a blur in my mind’s eye.
I was terrified, but I was stuck. I couldn’t move. He moved towards me slowly and suddenly there was this noise to my left. Before I could turn to look at it, I was pushed back into the bathroom and the door slammed shut.
Instantly, I heard my parents' door open and I jumped out of the bathroom. Every single light was on in our house, including the basement and garage.
I’ve never been able to explain it. I’ve tried to pass it off as too much caffeine or a lack of sleep.
Could a power surge have turned on the lights? But… The battery-powered flashlights were on, too. That was the strange part.
My dad, a huge skeptic, refuses to talk about it and blames it on me as a prank.
Another weird event that has occurred happened just a month ago. I was home from college and I had JUST gone to bed when I heard some weird noises and I muted my TV to listen closer. Suddenly, my door slammed like something had lunged against it.
I didn’t go outside at all that night, nor did I sleep. In the morning I found a huge scratch on the door. We do have a dog, but I give you my word that the scratch I found was not there before that night. Our dog knows better than to do that. She has never jumped up on a door before, either.
PIC – Of the scratches that I took and sent to my friend the morning it happened. I talked to my mom about it, and she said she has no idea what could have done that. We tried to think of a time we might have scratched it while carrying the vacuum or something, but nothing came up. My mom has mentioned seeing some things, but not nearly what I have experienced. She thinks it’s just the old house playing tricks… But I don’t think that’s it at all.
