Jonathan Cole and his wife Samantha were just an average couple living an average life, until they decided to move house. Samantha didn't want to move house at first, it was all Jonathon's idea but in the end he convinced her it was a good idea. It took the couple 6 months to find a house they thought would be good for them in their current situation, as they were expecting a child and had two dogs. However, they still managed to find and affordable 2 bed roomed house with a big garden. After visits and signing lots of paper work the house was eventually theirs. They were so happy that on their first night they hosted a party. All of the invited guests came and then left when the party was over. That was when it all began...

When everyone had gone the house was a mess. Empty beer cans, popped balloons all lay on the furniture and floor as well as their huge garden. So the couple decided to have a huge clean out the next morning. This never happened. Just as Jonathan was about to join his wife in bed the doorbell rang. Confused and startled Jonathan walked down the stairs to the front door. When he opened it there was nobody, then suddenly something pushed Jonathan with great force, causing him to fall backwards onto the couch. Scared Jonathan rubbed his eyes and looked around. Nothing he could see nothing, he quickly ran and slammed shut the door. It was too late, it was already inside and it wasn't leaving without a fight. Jonathan quickly ran upstairs to his wife and explained everything that had just happened. Samantha laughed at him. She didn't believe any of it. Jonathan got in to bed with his wife and suddenly the light turned on, then went off and then turned back on again. They both stared at the light then at the light switch. Samantha cuddled up against Jonathan for protection, she was scared but so was he. In two minutes the couple would be separated but none of them could predict what was to happen. The light switched off. Then as the couple had settled down to go to sleep the door started to open, squeaking every so often. They were doomed but they didn't know that.

Eventually the door had opened fully and both Samantha and Jonathan stared at the door with fear. In less than a second Samantha was pulled out of the bed onto the floor. She screamed which startled Jonathan. When he noticed he quickly jumped out of bed and ran to his wife's side. Again she was pulled this time into the middle of the landing. Samantha started crying and weeping. Jonathan didn't know how he could help her so again ran to her side. However, as he ran he once again felt the great force push him, this time it sent him flying over the landing's banister causing him to crash to the ground. The impact killed him instantly. Unaware of his death Samantha stood up and tried to run to him, she was intercepted and was pulled back into the bedroom were she started this whole ordeal.  She was so scared as she sat on her bed, looking around the room. What about her husband, was he ok? She would never find out. Suddenly the bedroom door slammed shut, causing Samantha to jump. This paranormal activity was much stronger than any other, as it once again pulled Samantha off the bed onto the floor. Crying to herself she crawled into the corner of the room and once again looked around. It was her turn to die. The lamps on both of the bed side tables started to float, then flew straight for samantha's face. Struggling to see she attempted to block the flying lamps with her hands. Luckily she managed however she did bang her head off the wall doing this. Above her head was a shelf, and on that shelf were Jonathan's old war stuff, including he steel toe boots. Samantha didn't know the shelf was above her and honestly she didn't care at that moment. She stud up and banged her head on the shelf, the impact knocked her to the ground. The last thing Samantha saw was the end of a steel toe boot flying toward her face because she knocked the shelf off the wall.

The bodies were found the next morning when one of the party goers went and knocked because they left there phone. The police started lots of enquires and interviewed every person who went to the party. At the end of all of their attempts they were no smarter than the previous one. Eventually they put the cause of death's down as unknown causes and the bodies were buried together. Nobody ever bought 37 Gilbert street again after that. So do the evil spirits still live within torturing both Samantha and Jonathan's spirit. Nobody will ever know. Both dogs were rehomed following the incident.
