The Paranormal

Okay...here's what's been going on...

I came in to work tonight to be told about an "incident" happening last night. I night manage a domestic violence shelter, and the shelter itself is inside what my town calls a "historic home". It has new siding and new additions, but the original structure is very old. Not sure the exact date of the original build but I'm gonna research that. Anyway...

Two of the ladies who smoke were outside around 11:30p last night. We have outdoor nightlights that kind of illuminate the yards. They heard something walking through the grass, then the seat on the swingset moved, then they heard footsteps climbing onto the wooden porch steps. They said it was loud, almost stomping. Even the cats freaked out and ran away from that side of the porch. The footsteps then walked to the other side of the porch, down the steps, and continued to stomp up the concrete stairs to the gate where they stopped. The sensor lights didn't come on, but they could see the swing moving and hear the footsteps, and they both "felt" the air get a little cooler when the footsteps were near them. One lady had never experienced anything like it so she ran in the house. The other lady is fullblooded Cherokee so she understood what was going on, and said it had an "evil" feel to it.

I've heard from staff and a couple other ladies that sometimes they hear footsteps on the stairs inside the house, and a few other odd noises and "feelings". I haven't really noticed anything but noises, which at the time I attributed to maybe a resident moving around late at night, but I'm gonna start paying more attention. I also thought it was just my nerves when I first started, but when I went out to smoke late one night I didn't even finish my cigarette because I felt like I was not alone, and had an odd feeling of fear. I assumed it was due to the job itself but now I wonder...

I shall keep you posted if anything else happens...
