So scared last night....

I got the wits scared out of me one night. We have three sleep eaters in the house and I heard a big thump after not catching them in the act for about 3 weeks. I wasn't thinking someone was up eating. I grabbed a flyswatter and jumped out of bed. I started swinging in the kitchen at whoever was in there. It was my step son, who in his sleep, had run into the table while opening the fridge. The next morning, he had marks all over him and didn't know why. I had to explain that I thought we were being robbed and I beat him up for it. HAHA! He didn't even know I had hit him. Of course, I felt bad. I wasn't trying to hurt him but for three weeks the bumps in the night were non-existant. I still apologize to him about it.

I am not scared of anything since i dont believe in god , i dont believe in God

Well, my wife is like you. Last week, she was telling that an intruder had come into our house, and shone a flash light, and when she switched on the bedside light, he dissappeared. My contention was it was not an intruder, but the light from my sons Mobile phone, which was flashing, because of the numerous SMS which he was recevieng from all his friends.(These young people receive SMS only during the nights, I do not know why). Of course, my wife is yet to be convinced.

Ha , that's a funny-scary encounter. At first going I was like alright , this sounds like a Paranormal Activity story ... and then the second part I was like smiling what you wrote there. I have had lots of moments like that too , amongst them would be seeing shadows but in actual fact they are just cats .. this happened at work once. I hear scratches when in actual fact it's the cleaner working late. Many imagination run wild type of small scenarios ..

Usually when this happens with me its one of my 3 cats. The new computer i bought a yr ago nov. has the power button on top corner edge of the pc tower. Many times they have stepped on it turning it offf and i thought my new computer had crashed. Many times ive been woke up to some thing they had stepped on the keyboard and played something. I also have a magic jack hooked up to my computer. I once woke to the magic jack saying "If youd like to place a call......." Then i see Miss Kitty stepping out from behind the screen. I only have one room so its not likely a prowler. But its still startling all the same. I try to keep somthing sitting as near the power button as possible so they dont try jumping up there. But every now and then it still happens. When i went on vacation i unplugged the computer because there are times when i left the house and came home to find the computer is on. Hummmm. And im sure i shut it off.

I never sleep without a maglite style flashlight beside me and some kind of weapon under the mattress , When I hear something funny outside I wait sometime for him to go inside the room first so he gets the surprise not me , but I get tempted to go out and investigate too if something is really odd or different to my senses.

Lol that is not a good thing to do as you can tell lol I never leave mine on it is of and scanned every Night lol I do hope you managed to get some more sleep though lol

not much ever wakes ua up as someone is almost always up in out household. One gets up at 11 pm and leaves for work at 1 am then I am up by 2 am to get ready to take grand nephew to work then I am still up usually when daughtr and gran daughter gets up then I might take a nap lololol So ya see would be nothing to surprize us or be scary.

Oh my goodness, you both probably had fear going and then when you all found out what it was, laughed out loud...lol I know I would have. We have had actual people rob us as well as trying to steal my car one night. I think I shocked the robbers that night though. When I heard a noise outside it took me a second to realize it was my car door. So I yelled in the house to get someone else up, no one came out, so not to waste time I went out the front door.. Yep there they were trying to push my car to the street. Well, to their surprise, I started yellling at them, get the f*** away from my car and get a life.. lol I left the one door open so I yelled to get someone in the house to friggin wake up. Finally after the guys that were trying to steal my car ran off, then my boyfriend decided to show up to find out what I was yelling about. (he was in another room playing a game on his computer with head phones) That is what I thought was funny, after the robbers ran off he shows up see's what I was yelling about and took off across the yard to run after them AFTER they disappeared... Yes, I have woke up to sounds and I go investigate and no matter how stupid I feel after finding it wasn't anything to worry about, I will still get up and look the next time.. you just never know....

Hi sweetie. The boogey man stole my night lamp last night. I threw him with a shoe though. I think he got the scare not me. TATA.

That's funny. I remember one night when I was a kid. In the middle of the night, someone (or something *shivers*) had opened up the piano and was banging on the keys! Totally like an eerie scene from a horror movie! It really scared the hell out of me. When I woke in the morning, I discovered that I had left the piano open, and the CAT jumped onto the keys and slept on top of the piano!!!!

I guess your apartment is haunted. When you apartment is haunted, your computer will on and run the program by itself. It was happened to my friends' apartment when they just moved in. The heater was on and adjusted to the highest temperature automatically. The oven was on too. They could hear the dragging sound of the chairs in the kitchen. When they came out form their bedroom, the furniture in the kitchen was really up-side-down. My friends arranged back the furniture, turned off the oven and adjusted back the temperature of the electric heater. After sleeping for a while, the same thing repeated again. When they complained to manager, the manager seemed knowing it earlier. They moved out with losing their rental deposits. Do you believe it or not? At first, I were not believed in it because it was exactly like those haunted movie. ha! ha! ha! Later, I found out the apartments were built on ex-cemetery area, in a very old map. There wasn't any reason for my friends to cheat me. Before they moved out, I had seen four of them to wait for each other then only they were dare to return to their apartment. It was happened in the America !

Thanks God, it is not caused by intruders or bad person. Something like this happened to my husband and I. It was like 3:00 AM when we heard a sound. I sounds like alien spaceship when it is abducting people. We are so scared because previously we heard on the news about U.F.O sighting. We were really scared and we could not sleep. He wanted to look outside the window but I did not let him. I was scared that we will be abducted. The sound is like moving in circle. getting fainter then louder and then it stopped. We were thinking what was that sound. Then the next morning. I heard it again and I found out that it is the alarm or horn of our neighbor's car.

Whoa! Paranormal Activity 3! Ha ha well, you should just be thankful that it wasn't a prowler or something. It's funny though, thank you for sharing. You should send this to Reader's Digest's "Life's Like That" or the like.

Personally this is probably one of the reasons I am Glad that my Computer is downstairs, and I sleep upstairs. But it would be a little scary to hear noises coming from somewhere that you know were not there when you went to sleep. I do not blame you for feeling a little scared, and Glad it turned out to be nothing serious.

Throughout the years there have been several times when I thought I heard something and went to investigate...lol...usually with something I think I can protect myself with...shoe...book...etc..LOL..I always think too....the dummies in the scary movies always go check out the noise.

I am one of those crazy people that will confront danger when there is something that scares me. I know that it is probably stupid to do something like that, but I feel that by confronting the danger I am actually protecting the rest of my family in a certain sense. I would hate to see something terrible happen to my children because I was afraid to open my bedroom door and see what was going on. Most of the time when I hear odd sounds it is actually my cats wrestling around in the living room.

For me it's not the computer, but the TV. I use the TV as an alarm clock everyday so I am used to suddenly waking up early in the morning because some loud TV talk. I try to put it in one particular channel where it's only talking heads to minimize the surprise, but once in a while, it opens up into a loud commercial that startles me. My heart goes pounding for a few moments before I realize that it was just the TV.

That was funny Its pretty hard for someone to wake me up in the middle of the night...so i wouldn't bother until a thief slips onto me by mistake I do watch horror movies but never had any nightmares...but i tend to think of some freaky stuff when odd things happen in and around. What would you do if you had noticed some fumes coming out of nowhere in your flat ?

I do know what it is but somehow there is something that makes people scared in the middle of the night. I have had times when I have suddenly woken up in the middle of the night, when it is completely dark and silent, and I just feel really scared...
