This is the continuing events of the Benicia Clocktower. (read "Series of Events" first or you won't understand this.) This May our Drama class was performing again at the Clocktower. We arrived a bit early to have a poke around as we had official proof; at least to ourselves if no one else.

We had noted that the basement had the most activity going on and decided to do our investigation down there. At first we were playing aroud, having fun and all.

Then we settled down and some strange things started happening...we all sort of had this uncontrolable urge to sit down in front of this big barn door-like door with several locks on it.

A few minutes after we sat down, we all went quiet. Just stopped talking. Immedietly, the locks on the door started rattling, hard. It's hard to duplicate such a terrifying noise. It took a few seconds for us to realize what had happened.

All of us except one got up, screamed and ran as fast as we could upstarirs. The one left behind was saying it was just the wind. Then she looked up at one of the locks and saw it unlock itself and ran for her life.

The funny thing is, you should be able to hear 5 teenage girls screaming bloody murder and running up stairs. But no one asked about what the screaming was all about, because no one heard us. What's even scarier is, when we went back downstairs to leave, we checked the door, and it was locked again.

We've filmed some footage of the Clocktower and if you'd like to see our website that we're just getting started, go to http://hauntedbenicia.gobspot.com
