this is really freaky......I was at my dad's house, (my mom and my dad are divorced), i go there every weekend. I was sleeping in the basement at the time...because he was just moving in. I was just going to bed when i heard a weird niose. I kept telling myself it was just the fernus. I was wrong though. I went to bed. A few hours later i heard a really weird noise and i got really freaked out. I got up to go and see what it was.....I was shaking all over. I went into the storage room, and saw this shadowish figure in the corner. I ran to the door to go upstairs. My dad and step mom were in bed. The basement door always locks and you have to use this screwdriver to get it open....but it only works from the other side of the door. I was yelling and screaming. I was locked in the basement. My dad heard me. He came to open the door for me but he couldn't find the screw driver he always used. I could hear footsteps coming closer and closer, so i started yelling louder and louder. He finally got the door open. The THING dissapeard. We never saw it again. We moved no to long after that........It was really freaky.
