Hey, Raven again. I wanted to share something that happened whenever I was at my friend Shawnee's (not her real name.) house. We were sitting in the middle of her floor and she was telling me about all this crazy stuff that had happened in her house. She told me about this one time whenever she was sitting in her room, and she heard a knocking at her window. Well, she went over to look and see who was doing it window, and no one was there. I didn't really think much of this since I'd never really experienced anything in her house. Well, I was sleeping over there that night, so a few hours after Shawnee told me all these different stories about her house, we decided to turn in for the night. I was exhausted, so I fell asleep the moment I hit the top matress of her bunk bed.

The next morning I woke up early. All of a sudden I heard someone scratching at the bottom of the matress. I thought it was Shawnee. I looked over the edge of the bunk to ask her what the hell she was doing, but she was asleep. So, I just laid back down. A few moments later, I heard the wall above my head being scratched. Keep in mind this was the top bunk. I moved my head to face the wall behind me. Nothing. Then I heard Shawnee's dresser drawers being rapidly opened and shut. once again, I looked over the edge of the bed, but the drawers weren't pulled out completely like they sounded like they'd been. But, they were slightly opened more than the last time I'd looked at them a few minutes before. I thought I heard some tapping at the window. Surprisingly, I wasn't really all that scared, just a bit jumpy. Then, Shawnee's brother, Brandon, and his friend, Nick (Not thier real names.) bursted into the room, woke Shawnee up, and scared the living s*** out of us.

After that I didn't hear anymore noises, until Brandon and Nick left to go to Nick's house and Shawnee and I were alone in the house with her dogs. I was at the table telling her about the stuff I heard that morning, and then I heard people talking in back of the house. I looked at Shawnee "I thought no one was home." Shawnee goes, "Yeah, we're the only ones here." I asked her, "Do you have a TV on back there?" Her reply was, "We don't have any TV's back there." Mu eyes went round. "Dude, I hear talking back there." Shawnee nodded and said, "I hear it too."

We went back there to check. Of course we found nothing. Well, that was the first and only time that ever happened at Shawnee's house, and she hasn't told me about anything unusual since then.
