This is a story going back quite a few years. My family and I moved to Redondo Beach, California when I was 3 years old, that was almost 34 years ago. 

We moved into a nice house that was attached to the landlords house. They were an elderly couple who were seldom apart. We moved out after 8 years, and my parents bought a house right down the street, so we kept in touch with our old landlords. Not too long after we moved, the wife, Sylvia, passed away, I don't remember if she died in the house or not. Mike, her husband, being heartbroken, died exactly a month after her, and again I don't remember if he died in the house. 

They worked very hard for what they had, and I think they didn't want to give it up. Shortly after their death, I had a pretty chilling dream. I was at my family's new house and I was going out to the garage. In there, I found a coffin with a top and bottom and sides, but no ends. I leaned over to see what/who was in it, and their lied Mike with his head help up staring at me with these glowing red eyes! Needless to say, that scared me. 

Several years later, my best friend knew the family that was living in Mike and Sylvia's house. They said that upstairs lights would come on and off all the time. The one thing that convinced me is that it was always about 30 degrees colder in the garage, and I know Mike spend a lot of time in there. 

These people that lived there now, had a cat, and one time the cat went in the garage, and came flying out like someone had threw him. I remember that Mike hated cats. I called these people to see if I could help them in any way, and they got very upset and hung up on me, I guess some people don't want to face reality. 

I still live right down the street in my own house now and drive by there several time. I've seem people move in and out, and wonder if strange things still happen there. One time I thought I saw Mike looking at me from an upstairs window one time when I drove by, I honestly think it was him. 

Thanks for listening.
