Creepy stories
Ok, I suppose this is more of a halloween theme, but thought I'd bring it up anyway. Anybody have any creepy stories of things that happened to you or people you know? I can think of two, at the moment. The first was recently- a few months back I had a dream that I was down by the river, and there were all these little sandbar-type islands that were connected by bridges, so you could walk from one to the other like one big, long path. Well, this past Saturday, I saw this place for real- not exactly, but close enough. I was in Romeoville, IL, a place I'd never been before, and drove past a fishing resort that had just this kind of setup, I guess so you could get out farther into the lake to fish. Very wierd feeling. The other story is one that happened to my parents when they were first married. They were living in an apartment, (a duplex, I think) and the lady downstairs always told them it was haunted. One night after they were in bed they heard this weird "slap, shuffle shuffle, slap, shuffle shuffle" noise, like someone taking a step then shuffling their feet. Being young and scared, they just hid under the covers and prayed for it to go away. The next morning, they got up and found their frog at the bottom of the stairs, dried up and dead in front of the radiator. That was the noise they heard- the frog hopping down the stairs!
