Whenever I'm Alone by Aishitaerux

It took me a long time to consider writing this, because people say I'm crazy, and it's impossible to happen.


One night I was home alone. I was on skype with my best guy friend. It was 11 p.m and I'm always too scared to go upstairs alone. Yes, I'm almost 18, but I'm so scared of my parents room, which I have to walk by every time I go upstairs. I always feel watched, and I see some guy standing there. I also see a male standing in the back yard sometimes, but never told my parents of any of this. Btw, my sister was at the soccerclub. She always stays there on friday after training. I went home because I was feeling sick.


But anyways, when I was talking to my friend, the doorbell rang. Usually some guy from the soccerclub visits so late, to discuss some things with my dad, which is the chairman of the club. To make sure, I peeked through the window to make sure it was someone I knew (I know everyone from the club). There was no one standing there! Because it's a wireless doorbell, it could be from someone else in my street.


My friend laughed, and we started talking again. The doorbell rang again. I peeked through the window again, but nobody there. I thought it could've been those annoying kids that live a little bit further in my street. I kept watching, and it rang again. There was seriously nobody there. It kept on ringing, slightly faster and faster, and I thought that maybe it could be the system that was freaking out, so I took out the batteries. But it didn't stop!


So I asked my friend how to solve it, since he really knows much about technology. He didn't understand either. I tried everything to make it stop, but nothing happend. At the same time, my tv started to act weird too.


All of a sudden, my friend kept looking behind the window that was behind me. "What's wrong" I asked him. "There is some dude standing in front of your back door" he said quite serious. I laughed at him, there wasn't anybody there. He said it was, and he made a printscreen of it. There really was someone, and I was amazed. Is it even possible?


Anyways, my sister came home around 1:30. When she opened the door, the ringing stopped, and everything went back to normal. I decided to go to sleep, my sister went together with me upstairs. I went to bed, and closed my eyes. I heard footsteps, I thought they were of my mom or dad. I didn't really care. I fell asleep, and when I woke up, I saw a black shadow standing over me. It grabbed my throat and tried to choke me. It lasted a few seconds, then it disappeared. I don't know if this was just a dream, or reality.


There are some other things that happened around my house like this. What should I do about the ghosts? One of them (the one standing outside) sometimes follows me everywhere I go. With carnaval (a tradition in some regions in the south) that ghost followed me everywhere.
