Bah

Bah, I guess I'll just keep telling stories and let you guys all decide which is the scariest.

While I was still with my parents, this would have been a couple of months after the previously mentioned events (October). I was working as a janitor at this little christian school. So it was late at night while I was cleaning (probably about 8-9pm; up in northern Canada so it was pitch black by this point).

Well The kids had some little party, and they had put all of their desks over on one side of the classroom, and stacked some on top of the others. So I was going through the place cleaning up, and I was in the middle of mopping the kitchen floor when the light just went off. So I went over to the light switch to try the switch (while thinking that the bulb probably burned), when to my surprise the light turned back on. Well I thought that was strange, but continued on and was eventually finished cleaning. So while I was going through the whole place locking up all the rooms, I got to that one classroom with all of the desks on it.

Now this classroom was set up weird. The light switches for it were in the office which was just off the classroom (two doors into the class, one to the hallway and one to the office.). So I walked into the class, closed and locked the door to the hallway.

Then I walked into the office and closed and locked the door to the classroom. I then went over to the light switch and flicked it off. The very second I turned off the lights it sounded like every single one of those desks had fallen off the other desks they were put on, the door to the classroom made this loud thump sound like something had just smashed into it. Like, this wasn't a little knock, this was unmistakably crap being flinged around the room.

Well I didn't bother sticking around (I regret that now), I locked the office door (which led out to the hall) and ran back up to the front door, locked that, set the alarm, and got out of there.

On my way home this annoying yappy dog had gotten off his leash and was barking at me from across the street (I was walking home). I had my headphones on, so I just saw this dog barking, and then he starts running over to me. I start thinking "great, stupid dog is going to follow and bark at me all up the block".

So I decide to just sort of not give it any attention and keep walking. After I saw it go behind me I got curious so I turned around, and it was directly behind me, facing behind me, crouched down low, barking at either the air behind me, or something in the yard that was about 30m away from me. Due to the big bang I had heard, I had assumed something supernatural, but thinking about it now, there might have been some animal that got its attention. Regardless, at the time it freaked me right out seeing the dog barking at the air.

The next day I ran into the principal of the school and asked him how everything looked. He said I was doing a great job. I asked him if any of the desks had fallen and he said that everything was exactly the way they had left it.

NEXT STORY

This one happened about 6 months ago... No, dang... it's been a year. Ok so it happened about a year ago. I was on the main floor of my house, browsing the net and sitting across from my wife. We heard the washing machine downstairs going nuts. It was one of those older ones that if you had the weight balanced poorly that it would make this loud knocking sound on the spin cycle. So I got up to go and stop it. So I ran over to the stairs, ran down, and then got this irrational fear of the corner of my basement where my desktop is (was using my laptop upstairs).

So the stairs down (where I was) end at the north-west part of the basement, there's a large room with some couches, my computer in the north-east corner, a door to the laundry room to the south, and a door to the furnace to the south-west (feel like I'm playing Zork here). Now between the door to the furnace and the stairs was this small table I had set up for my tabletop RPG group.

Ok so I get this fear of that corner. I have no idea why, but I was absolutely terrified of that corner. So I started moving towards the laundry room while staring at that corner. Now this next part is hard to explain. I felt like there was something moving from the corner towards me. Like, I could see it, but yet there wasn't anything there.

At this point I'm thinking I'm ridiculous, so I start walking faster towards the laundry room telling myself that I'm just letting my imagination get the best of me. I look back once I get to the laundry room, and I see one of the chairs at my table fall over. I stopped the washer and just sat in the laundry room until that load was done. Freaked the crap out of me.

There's more, but I'm tired of typing right now. Hope those help give a little more context of my belief.
