The Police Found Nothing
It happened way back on the last day of 6th grade.
My best friend's birthday was on the last day of school, and she
always had a huge party, and about five of her closest friends would
spend the night.
It was about 1 AM, and we were playing the game "Light as a
Feather; Stiff as a Board". For those of you who don't know what
that is: it's a game where someone is lying on their back on the
floor, and everyone sits cross-legged around them.
You take turns telling the scariest ghost stories you can think
of, and then, when the game is over, everyone puts their index and
middle fingers underneath them, and closes their eyes, and begins
chanting quietly at first, and then louder and louder "Light as a
Feather; Stiff as a Board", hoping to make them levitate.
As you probably guessed, it never works. Anyway, as we were
chanting when we heard a muffled scream, and her bedroom door slam.
I headed to the closest light switch ASAP, and flicked it on with no
hesitation.
What I saw horrified me... I forgot to mention we had all of our
sleeping bags, changes of clothes, make-up, towels, etc. stacked on
her bed. There was probably about twenty items scattered across the
bed.
When I turned on the light, every single item had "fallen" off of
her bed. We sat in shock until we heard another similar noise, and
her bedroom door slowly opened. I assumed whatever was there, had
left.
Her grandmother had called the police after we sprinted
frantically to her bedroom. One girl, Ashley, was crying and
hyperventilating claiming that she had felt two strong hands holding
her to the floor until the door opened.
The police found nothing, but suggested we sleep somewhere else
if it made us feel better. We all went to my house, and tried to
sleep.
Nothing has happened like that since, and I'm a Freshman now, and
I'm over at her house practically everyday. Whatever it was, seemed
as if it was keeping us in the room. Protecting us? I'll never
know.
