One night I couldn't sleep, so I decided to stay up and wait for my husband to come home from work (he had to work late that week) it was about 2am, and I heard a car pull in, my bed is right under the window, then I heard the car door open and shut, and walking up the sidewalk, the screen door make it awful screeching, and the lock pop open on the handle of the door, then I heard walking across the hard wood floor into the kitchen...Then I heard nothing else, I thought I would sneak down the stairs and surprise my husband. So I quietly walked down the stairs, and peeked over the banister, he was not in the living room, so I quick walked over to the kitchen door and peeked in, and he was not there...well we have a small bathroom connected to our kitchen and the door was closed, which I never close, so I figured he was in there, so I knocked very softly, trying to scare him, but he didn't answer, so I knocked harder, and still no answer, so I opened the door, and to my surprise he was not in there! I couldn't figure out why the door was closed, but I decided he must be in the basement, which I hate!! And I usually go down there only to do laundry, and only in the daytime...I always have a icky feeling down there. Anyways, I snuck down the stairs and again, no one there. Well I was extremely scared so I hauled my butt all the way back up to my bedroom, looked out the window, and my husband car was NOT there...I know what I heard, I heard EVERYTHING very clearly. I called him at work in tears and asked him to come home...when he got home, I heard all the same exact sounds that I heard the first time, but this time I checked out the window before I went downstairs. This has happened to me a couple of more times since then, I always check out the window first.
