      When my moms new boyfriend would come around he was kind of weird and acted a little strange he wouldnt really talk to me and my sister or start the converstantion if we would start it he would talk to us.

      I would hear footsteps in the middle of the night.  I would hear walking in the kitchen and on the steps. My mom one night told me about how her and her boyfriend went to sleep and in the middle of the night she would hear what sounded like someone was crinkling paper in that little cubby by her bed. She said it would go on for a little bit then stop.

      Then start up again but the only thing in there is her clothes. Not paper nothing like that. As the weeks would go on I noticed that the footsteps would sound heavier. One night I was sitting downstairs on the couch it was around 10 pm and I heard footsteps that sounded lije bare feet that would walk from the fridge and it would walk into the livingroom on a step or two ( I could tell when it walked in even though the living room was carpet cause the floorboard right in that spot would creak)  then the steps would go back into the kitchen.  It would do that a few times before I would be completely freaked out and go upstairs into my room to head to bed to go to high school the next morning.

      It would be hard for me to sleep and relax knowing that something downstairs was walking around and that I didn't have a door I could lock and feel safe.
My mom broke up with the creepy guy and was for a while single. The same creepy stuff would happen footsteps, random noises that couldn't be explained and my anxiety was start to get a little bad.  After a month or two my mom met her then boyfriend now husband. That's when things took off again and it got worse.

      One day I came home from school.  I opened the door put down my backpack and immediately headed for the kitchen like I always do to get a snack. As soon as I open the fridge I heard what sounded like a little kid jump off my bed and run into my moms room.  There was no mistaking what I heard. At that moment I thought it was my sister cause she was in this bad habit of not going to school in the morning.  She would walk herself since her school was only a few blocks away. 

      Anyways I groaned slammed the fridge and started stomping upstairs as I was stomping upstairs I was saying oh why didn't you go to school today?  You are going to get in trouble. I was just going on as I was walking about how mad I was that she stayed home. I checked my room no one there. I go into my moms room check everywhere even under the bed no one there. In that moment when I realized that I was home alone and that it wasn't a person I heard I just froze i was terrified ( keep in mind we had no pets at this time either). 

      I just slowly and quietly walked downstairs and sat on the couch and a few minutes later my sister came home from school. I didn't sleep that night.
