00:00This happened to a guy named Ethan.

00:02So Ethan was moving into this old house in upstate New York.

00:06The house was really cheap, like suspiciously cheap,

00:09but the landlord said it was just an old house, not a haunted house.

00:13So Ethan took the deal.

00:15At first, everything was great.

00:17He loved the creaky floors, the vintage wallpaper,

00:20even the ancient grandfather clock that was just like totally there when he moved in.

00:24But then he noticed a door.

00:26It was just a plain wooden door at the end of the hallway.

00:29It was locked, and there was no key.

00:32Ethan assumed it was just some sort of closet or something, you know?

00:35Because why would there be a door in the middle of the hallway, leading to nothing?

00:39The landlord had never mentioned a door in the middle of the hallway, leading to nothing.

00:44So when Ethan called her about it, she was super confused.

00:47Landlord, there's no door like that.

00:50Are you sure you're not mistaken?

00:51And Ethan was positive he wasn't mistaken, like he could literally see the door.

00:56So he just shrugged it off and went to bed.

00:59But that night, he heard knocking.

01:01It was soft at first.

01:03Then it got louder.

01:04And the knocking was coming from the other side of the locked door.

01:07Ethan, hello?

01:08Is anyone there?

01:09But there was no answer.

01:11Only silence.

01:12Until knock, knock.

01:13So the next morning, he set up a camera pointing at the door,

01:16just to see what the hell was going on.

01:18And the next morning, when he checked the footage,

01:20he saw the door open all by itself at 3.17 a.m.,

01:24but there was nobody there.

01:26And then he saw himself.

01:27He was sleepwalking into the room.

01:29But the thing was, he had no memory of doing that.

01:32So he decided he was going to stay up all night and watch the door himself.

01:36And at 3.15 a.m., he heard a creak.

01:39Then at 3.16, another creak.

01:41And then at 3.17, the door started opening.

01:44Ethan, who's there?

01:46Show yourself.

01:47And from the darkness, a raspy, low, and cold voice said,

01:50You've always lived here, Ethan.

01:52You just forgot.

01:53And the next day, Ethan was gone.

01:56The door was gone, too.

01:57And the house is still listed for rent.

01:59It's even cheaper now.
