strangers at your house

  1. So I know I'm not the only with some creepy ass stories about a stranger coming to your house late at night. Have you ever had someone or something come to your door late at night and freak you out? post your experiences :D

    I've had a couple things happen to me.

    It was around 1am and I was chilling with my girl and all the sudden I see this figure standing in the window and it appeared to be staring at us. As soon as I got up and went over there, the figure disappeared so I stood at the window and looked out for a minute before just blowing it off. About 10 minutes later there was a loud bang on my back door and it wasn't like a "did you hear that" bang, it was a "holy shit someone is breaking in" bang. So I bolt up and grab a baseball bat and yell to something like back the fuck off motherfucker and the banging stops. I was honestly pretty scared but I looked outside and saw nothing so I figured I scared off whoever it was. Not even 5 minutes after that the banging starts again and this time I run right over and fling the door open only to find NOTHING THERE. It was pretty frightening to say the least but I chalked it up to kids playing pranks and not an axe wielding maniac playing with me before he slaughtered me. Anyway, I never found out what the fuck it was and it still freaks me out.

    Another time was I was home alone it was maybe around 10pm and someone knocked on my door. It was early enough that I didn't get suspicious so I opened the door without thinking. This creepy looking dude was standing there all wide eyed just staring at me for like a minute before he said anything. He asked me if this was my house and I was kind of put off as I never really got random visitors a lot. I told him it was and he asked to come in :eek: I was like nooo why. He said he wanted to talk to me about the house and I told him he should probably leave. He just stared at me for a second and asked if anyone was home with me. At that point I noticed he had his hands behind his back and that's when I closed the door and locked it. I shouted at him through the door that I was going to call the police if he didn't leave my property. I came around to my living room which overlooks my front yard and looked out the window, and this guy was just standing in my yard staring at my house. By far the most freaked out I've ever been when I was home. I ended up not calling the police but I sat there with a bat in my hands until he walked off. He stood outside my house for maybe 10 minutes before leaving, I still wonder what the fuck he was thinking and what he would've done if I let him in. There was something about his eyes man.
     
  2. I moved into a new place that was in kind of a sketchy area that has lots of people moving through it, some staying some not. its like 9pm and we're just chilling. some dude opens my front door and walks right in. looks around and goes "is jake here? got weed? are you jake?"
    im like "nah theres no jake here... but we got weed if you want to buy some"
    he responded "i need to find jake" and walked out closing the door behind him.

    jake used to live in my place i guess :)
     
  3. Last Friday night me and my girlfriend were having some "alone time" on the couch after a long night and something bashed against my apartment door. I went outside super fast with just boxers on, and apparently someone threw a pair of plastic chairs at my door breaking them.

    I went outside in like a second and no one was there. Super creepy and I was pissed cause I had to re-seduce the gf.. just not a good situation haha
     
  4. I had a very bad scare late at night, like 12:30 I got like 5 loud knocks on my door, and then the doorbell rang, I got outta bed, walked down to find like 8 cops sitting outside my house....

    I about shit myself, but I knew I had not done anything so I opened the door, and said how can I help you asked me if I was Steven S_ _ _ _ _ _ , which was my neighbor. I told them no, looked at the address on the warrent, and said They were sorry and left. lol I went back to sleep.

    Tl:dr Nearly shit myself

    Cops showed up

    did not get arrested
     
  5. About 2 or 3 years ago,at my old house,with all 3 dogs in the house,I had just fallen into that deep sleep with my window open.It was a windy nite and I kept hearing my gate clanking around,but I heard actually open once.

    Now being half asleep I thought it was my cousin,because he would come over all the time and smoke.But I realized it was pretty late(a.m. hours) and there was no car parked outside.

    I see this dark figure with a grayish hooded jacket on(hood up)walking up my sidewalk to the front door.I'm just in shock,I couldn't say anything,I couldn't do anything.I was just like WTF?!My window was next to the front door,but he was in a blind spot where I couldn't see.After about 10-15 seconds of standing somewhere(or possibly looking in the front windows idk cause i couldnt see the fuck)he walks down the sidewalk back towards the gate and leaves and walks up the street next to mine.I'm not sure if he saw me looking at him or what.But he never knocked,rang the door bell,or said anything to me.

    I wake my parents up and put all 3 dogs outside and this guy COMES BACK!At the time,we had a giant dumpster in front of our yard next to the street and he's just standing there with a back pack full of who knows what.Then a car comes by and he tries to hitch a ride but they keep going and my dogs let that fucker know he wasn't coming back into that yard or he was going to get mauled.

    BUT the creepiest thing was,the entire time he was out there I could NEVER see his face.I too still wonder what he wanted to this day.
     
  6. I hd this guy knock on my door about midnight. I happened to be up watchin t.v. I looked outside before I opened the door and he appeared to be by himself. I opened the door to see what he wanted and he asked me if I could cash a check for him. i'm like wtf ? yea he wanted me to cash a $125.00 check. I just shut the door on him I didn't even know what to say to that.
     
  7. I was staying at a friend's cabin, And my friend had gone up to the gas station to get some food and drank before we smoked. I was watching T.V., and just a few hours earlier i remember the something on the new's about an escaped paient at some mental hospital only about 5 miles from the cabin. (which is already a "why the fuck is there a mental hospital so close" feeling) So I'm sitting here chillin, having the munchies.


    So I get up to get some water, peer my head to the right and I see something that stay's in my mind forever. It was a man (at least 50) with gray hair, head tilted, staring STRAIGHT into my fucking eyes into my window. We litterly look at each other for 5 minutes before he bursts out into some fucked up laughter. I coulden't move, like, my entire body was frozen there. I was 14 when this all happend. I ending up passing out and waking up 40 minutes later when my friend gets back, I tell him everything and he just give's me the biggest "what the fuck" look.



    Then we smoked some weed and it was all good.
     
  8. FUUUUUUCCCK :eek:

    Damn dude!I got creeped out picturing that in my head.

    People are fuckin worried about ghosts and shit,like when they go stay somewhere.I'm much more afraid of the living,than the dead.
     
  9. yea dude that's some serious shit. good thing nothing happened after that man, I would've been flipping out haha

    Well I own a house, and shared it with my best friend. Well we were always quiet in the neighborhood, and never acted suspicious or was loud or anything. Well down the street lived this black couple who had two pitbulls. I remember instead of an actual leash he had like chain collars it was pretty odd. Well one night at about 2am I was still up just chillin I heard a car right outside my house. Well it sounded like every door being shut one after the other (i.e 4 people getting out of a car). So I went to the peephole at my front door (the outside light is always on). Well safe to say my heart sank when I looked out.

    I'm surprised I didn't shit myself. Okay - 2am I look out the peephole and the guy from down the corner is standing there looking right into the peephole. Scariest fucking thing ever. Imagine in the dead of night looking out the window and someone is there. Of course he didn't see me, but the thought of him looking at the peephole like he was expecting me. Scary shit. So I opened the door and he had both his dogs with him and they were barking at me. The guy goes "you fuckin kids stay out of my backyard or I'll kill you both." I was just like still shocked from the peephole incident, I just stood there and I said we weren't in his yards, and we weren't fucking kids. Anyway after some shit like that he walked away.

    Things I never found out:
    What the car was about
    If the guy was about to ring my doorbell or he was standing there
    And who the fuck these kids were in his yard


    Pretty tired so I'm trying to remember the full details of the story. Maybe I'll come back and edit in more later.


    And heres the thread of my house getting broken into almost a year ago :eek:
    http://forum.grasscity.com/real-life-stories/597443-house-actually-did-get-broken-into-2.html
     
  11. mad long ago my mom and i lived alone in a house, in a fairly bad neighborhood.

    and we had a good sized back yard with a gate, that went to a step up deck, and then there was a screen room that lead into the house.

    well one summer our neighbors son helped clean up the back year and made a garden for my mom, he was about 19 and i was like 6. and he knew the back yard well, and our house. he had been over a few times.

    well one night, my mom and i had fallen asleep in the living room, tv on, normal night. i woke up in the middle of the night to take a piss, and im walking back down the hallway to the living room, and i look in towards the family room, and theres a guy in the dark standing INSIDE my house. then he starts jumping up and down, and i can see his curly hair from the little light coming thru the window.

    i run to the living room and start trying to wake up mom up. the guy must have heard me, cuz he stopped jumping and neither my mom or i could see anything. she chalked it up to my imagination. as she was falling back asleep, im staring across the room towards the family room, and a minute later the guy pops back up and is jumping up and down again.

    this time i shook my mom, and she see's this guy and fliiiips. she runs to the kitchen screaming MOTHERRFUCKKERRR and grabs the biggest knife she could find. an keep swearing running to the family room. and starts turning all the lights on. the guy was gone! she starts running thru all the rooms yelling out she's gonna kill anyone in any of the rooms. nobody else was around. then she called 911.

    after it was all said and done, she realized she had left the slider door open that connects to the screen room, so the cat could get out, and the intruder must have came in thru there. we also noticed the tv was turned off and there was money missing out of her purse which was right by the couch. that means he or they were walking right next to us when we were sleeping. creepy.

    my mom swore it was the neighbor because of how fast got out of the house, and thru the backyard and fence. but the neighbor had short hair. i think the guy was jumping to signal my neighbor.

    about a week later i was riding my bike around, and i see an older kid on a bike riding around too, and he had the same exact hair as i saw. exactly
     
  12. About 2am me and my girl were asleep in our apartment when I wake up to someone trying to open the front door. I can hear them trying to put a key and and turn it, but its obviously not the right key and they begin yelling in frustration and banging on the door. :eek: I start to flip out and grab a steak knife from the kitchen and stand next to the door in case it opens. I was waiting maybe 5mins listening to him outside trying to figure out how to get in, when I hear him say "oh fuck, im on the wrong floor."

    It was our upstairs neighbour, drunk as fuck, trying to get into the wrong house!
     
  13. I have done this, and acidently opened the door to someones house, and I have had this happen to me, somenone tried putting their key in my lock for like 5 minutes before realizeing he had the wrong door.

    Once when I was 8-10, my parents and I were watching a movie. Around 12am the movie is almost over and my parents are asleep. I'm sitting here watching this movie when all of a sudden I hear the door knob turning and realize someone is trying to open the front door. I didn't know what the fuck to think. They didn't even knock/talk or anything. Considering the time, someone was obviously trying to break in. Anyways, they kept twisting/turning the door knob and eventually stopped.


    I've always wondered what would've happened that day had the door not been locked.
     
  15. When i was about 11 i lived with my dad in queens. We had a shitty appartment and i was home alone.

    I was watching t.v and the door just swings wide open and like 6 people walked in with alcahol and shit.

    Once they saw me they where like " Oh sorry little man wrong house "

    But needless to say i almost shit my pants.
     
  16. good stories so far :D

    Ok so this one happened to my ex. She was home alone and it was really late and she heard a faint tap on the door. When she looked through the peep hole, she saw a man laying at the doorstep reaching out for the door. Naturally she opened the door and asked what was wrong. The man said he just got jumped and needed help. He slowly started to try to get up and right when he did that, he lunged at her and tried to grab her. Luckily, she was quick and slammed the door right in his face and locked it and called the police. Right after that the guy jumped up and ran away, the police never found him. She was pretty traumatized after that for a while, with good reason though. I can't help but think that guy would've murdered her. That's some Ted Bundy shit.
     
  17. ^not really Ted Bundy was good with women that's the fucked up part lol

    And I never had any experience with it. Though I remember as a kid there were a few times my grandma told me someone had knocked on the door really late.
     
  18. I've actually done it too, to the neighbour below me, luckily they weren't home. Which is ironic in a way since the neighbour above did it to me.
     
  19. Luckily I've never had anything too scary happen to me, just some simple misunderstandings. One night it was about 3 a.m. and I was just getting to sleep after watching a few movies. Suddenly, I hear a truck, along with the sound of a door opening/slamming. Then I hear very quick footsteps. I look out the window and sure enough, some guy is literally running up my neighbors driveways, full speed! I freaked the fuck out. Woke up my parents and they came rushing out and everything. Turns out it was just the newspaper guy lol
     
  20. This is when you need a 12 gauge shotgun to blow some fuckers head clean off. Fuck gun control. Break into my house, eat hot lead.
