00:00On a stormy night, the kind that blankets the world in a symphony of rain and thunder,
00:05I found myself tucked away in my cozy living room, savoring the ambience.
00:10Storms like this, with their rolling thunder and relentless rain, always brought me a strange
00:17sense of comfort, a reason to stay indoors and indulge in the simple pleasures of life.
00:22With no work the next day, I decided to make the most of it.
00:25At around 8pm, I brewed a steaming cup of coffee, its rich aroma filling the air, and settled
00:32onto the couch with a movie playing on the TV.
00:34The rain battered the windows, a soothing backdrop to the flickering screen.
00:39Only 20 minutes into the film, my phone buzzed alive, its ring cutting through the cozy haze.
00:45The number wasn't saved in my contacts, but the area code was local, so I answered, thinking
00:51it might be someone I knew or something urgent.
00:53Hello, I said my voice tentative.
00:56Silence greeted me, but it wasn't empty.
00:59There was a faint, chaotic noise in the background, like the storm itself was bleeding through the
01:04line.
01:05Can I help you?
01:06I tried again, but no one spoke.
01:08The call wasn't dead.
01:10I could hear the rain, the wind, almost as if the caller was standing outside in the tempest.
01:15Uneasy, I hung up, dismissing it as a prank or a scam, though it lacked the telltale robotic
01:21voice of automated calls.
01:23Shaking off the odd feeling, I tossed the phone onto the end table and returned to my
01:28movie.
01:28The storm outside grew fiercer as the night wore on, the thunder booming louder, the
01:34lightning flashing brighter, and the rain pounding harder against the house.
01:38About an hour into the movie, the lights and TV flickered.
01:41A brief stutter before snapping back on, I paused the film, glancing around, unsure what
01:47had caused the disruption.
01:49Then, not even thirty seconds later, the power cut out completely.
01:53The house plunged into darkness, and the storm's roar seemed to double in intensity, filling
01:59the silence left by the dead electronics.
02:02Rain hammered the roof, and thunder rumbled relentlessly, shaking the walls for what felt
02:07like an eternity.
02:09I had only a small, rarely used candle to light the room, and I was hesitant to use
02:13my phone's flashlight, wary of draining its battery during what could be a long outage.
02:18I lit the candle, its weak flame casting eerie shadows, and decided to check the breaker box
02:25in the basement.
02:26The switch was loose when I found it, but flipping it back and forth did nothing.
02:30The power was gone.
02:31Returning upstairs, I noticed every house on the street was dark, confirming a widespread
02:37outage.
02:38With my phone running on 5G, I searched for any news about the blackout, but found nothing.
02:43Standing by the window, I watched the storm rage, the candle's faint glow reflecting off
02:49the glass.
02:50I'd been there for about fifteen minutes, mesmerized by the chaos outside.
02:54When a sharp creak cut through the noise, the unmistakable sound of my backyard gate swinging
03:00open.
03:01That gate had no lock, but it was heavy and never open on its own, even in strong winds.
03:07My heart quickened as I moved to the back door, peering through the glass into the stormy
03:12darkness.
03:13There, in the middle of my backyard, stood the shadowy outline of a man, barely visible through
03:19the rain.
03:19I couldn't tell if he was facing the house or looking away.
03:22His features obscured by the storm's veil.
03:25A chill ran through me.
03:27Who would be out in this weather, standing motionless in my yard?
03:30I considered shouting at him to leave, but something about his stillness, his presence
03:35in the storm, made me hesitate.
03:38What if he was dangerous?
03:39I stayed by the door, watching my breath shallow.
03:42For a full minute, he didn't move.
03:45Then, slowly, he raised his arm, pulling something from his pocket.
03:50A faint glow appeared in his hand.
03:51A phone.
03:52My heart stopped as my own phone began ringing in the living room, the same unfamiliar number
03:58flashing on the screen.
03:59I rushed to grab it, confirming it was the same caller from earlier.
04:03The realization hit me like a bolt of lightning.
04:06This man, standing in my backyard, had called me an hour ago, the storm's noise crackling through
04:12the line.
04:13Had he been out there this whole time, watching my house?
04:16Panic surged through me as I returned to the back door.
04:19But he was gone, swallowed by the darkness.
04:22I cursed myself for leaving the door, for losing sight of him.
04:26The thought of him lurking unseen made my skin crawl.
04:28I retreated to the living room, trying to calm my racing heart.
04:32I considered calling the police, but what could I say?
04:36Someone was in my yard and called me twice, but I had no proof they meant harm.
04:40Before I could decide, my phone rang again, the same number.
04:44I declined it, my hands trembling.
04:46Seconds later, a loud knock shook the front door.
04:50Heavy, deliberate blows that rattled the walls.
04:53The phone rang again, and the knocking grew more aggressive, each thud echoing through
04:58the house.
04:59Fear paralyzed me.
05:01I knew I should act, but the storm, the darkness, and the relentless pounding overwhelmed me.
05:07It wasn't until the knocks became even more forceful that I snapped out of it and dialed
05:11911, my voice shaky as I explained the situation to the operator.
05:16They assured me an officer was four minutes away.
05:18The knocking continued, unrelenting, as I waited, each second stretching into eternity.
05:25Finally, the operator said the officer was on my street.
05:29I heard shouting outside and rushed to the window, just in time to see a police officer
05:34chasing a figure into the storm.
05:36They vanished into the darkness, and I waited, heart pounding, until the officer returned,
05:42alone.
05:43The man had escaped.
05:44The police took the situation seriously, especially since the officer had seen the suspect.
05:49They investigated thoroughly, but the phone number led nowhere.
05:53A dead end.
05:54I racked my brain for anyone who might have a grudge against me, but came up empty.
05:59The case eventually fizzled out, and I never heard from that number again.
06:03The terror of that night, though, has never left me.
06:06It's the kind of fear you think only exists in movies, the kind that shatters your sense
06:11of safety.
06:11I was young then, in middle school, just starting to feel like I was growing into myself, but
06:17that night made me feel small and vulnerable again.
06:21Years later, another unsettling experience deepened that lingering unease.
06:27It was summer, and my parents had left for a short road trip to celebrate their anniversary,
06:32leaving me alone in the house.
06:33I was thrilled at the prospect of having the place to myself, inviting my best friend, Jake,
06:39over for a sleepover.
06:41His parents wouldn't have allowed it if they knew no adults were home.
06:44So we bent the truth a little, and by 6pm, Jake was on his way.
06:49Excited, I opened the front windows to watch for his arrival.
06:52But as I did, I noticed a man standing unusually close to the house, near the garage.
06:58He was tall and thin, with longish dark hair and a patchy beard, his presence unnerving.
07:05I stepped back from the window, not wanting him to see me, and when I checked again a few
07:10minutes later, he was gone.
07:12I brushed it off, assuming he was just passing by, and didn't mention it to Jake when he arrived.
07:18We spent the evening locked in my room, playing video games, munching on snacks, and losing
07:23track of time.
07:25Around 11.30pm, Jake stepped out to use the bathroom, only to return seconds later, his
07:31face pale.
07:32Did you hear that?
07:33He whispered.
07:34I hadn't heard anything.
07:35But before he could explain, the power went out.
07:38The TV, Xbox, and lights all died, plunging the house in a darkness, so complete, I couldn't
07:45see Jake standing just feet away.
07:47Groping from my phone, I turn on the flashlight, its beam cutting through the blackness.
07:52We stood still, listening, trying to make sense of the sudden blackout.
07:57Jake said he'd heard a thump or footsteps downstairs just before the power cut.
08:02We assumed it was related to the outage, but the timing fell off, and the darkness made
08:07everything more ominous.
08:08Not knowing what else to do, we decided to check the breaker box in the basement.
08:12I led Jake to the basement door, which was oddly already open.
08:17My parents rarely went down there.
08:18It was unfinished, filled with old boxes and forgotten junk, so the open door added to
08:24our unease.
08:25With our phone flashlights guiding us, we descended the creaky wooden stairs into the cold, concrete
08:31space.
08:32The breaker box's panel was partially open, and the main switch was flipped opposite the
08:37others.
08:38Jake hesitated, then flipped it back.
08:41Instantly, faint beeps and hums echoed from upstairs as appliances restarted, but the basement
08:47remained pitch black.
08:49We started back toward the stairs, but a sudden shuffling sound stopped us cold.
08:54I swung my flashlight toward the noise, and there, half hidden behind some boxes, stood
08:59a figure, tall, thin, with long dark hair.
09:02It was the man I'd seen earlier near the garage.
09:05Panic seized me.
09:06I turned and bolted up the stairs, Jake right behind me.
09:09We slammed the basement door shut and ran out the front door, across the street, where
09:14I called 911.
09:17As we waited, we saw a figure move past a downstairs window, then, chillingly, an upstairs one,
09:24my parents' room.
09:25The police arrived quickly, but the man was gone, having slipped out a back window.
09:30My parents were called, and though the police asked countless questions, the investigation
09:35led nowhere.
09:37The thought of that man watching our house, shutting off the power, and hiding in the basement
09:42still haunts me.
09:43We moved shortly after, and I've never seen him again, but the fear lingers, a reminder
09:49of how fragile safety can be.
09:51Decades later, I bought an off-grid cabin in the Montana wilderness, craving solitude.
09:57It was a perfect retreat, three hours from civilization, surrounded by dense forest.
10:02One fall, I decided on a whim to spend a five-day weekend there.
10:06The drive was exhausting, and I arrived around 7 p.m., navigating the long, dirt road in the
10:13dark.
10:13I unloaded my bag, started the gas generator, and lit the wood stove to ward off the chilly
10:1925 degrees Fahrenheit night.
10:21Too tired to do much, I went to bed early.
10:24The next day, I cleaned the cabin, dusting and sealing cracks.
10:27Around midday, I noticed an old truck creeping down the dirt trail toward the cabin.
10:33It stopped short, idled for five minutes, and then turned back.
10:37I figured they'd taken a wrong turn.
10:39Other cabins were scattered nearby, so I didn't dwell on it.
10:43That night, around 10 o'clock, I lit a campfire on the porch, enjoying the quiet forest sounds
10:49and the glow of the flames.
10:51But the peace didn't last.
10:53The porch light flickered and died, along with the cabin's lights.
10:56The generator's hum had stopped.
10:58Annoyed, I checked it, expecting a malfunction, but found the gas tank empty.
11:03I'd filled it the night before, and there was no way it'd run dry so quickly.
11:07No leaks, no spills, just gone.
11:10Confused, but resigned, I returned to the campfire, trying to recapture the night's calm.
11:16Then, out in the woods, I saw something.
11:19A dark, human-like shape among the trees.
11:21I squinted, unsure if it was a person or just a strangely shaped bush.
11:27It didn't move, so I dismissed it and went back to staring at the fire.
11:31But when I glanced again, it was gone.
11:33My heart raced.
11:35The forest quiet now felt oppressive, like I was being watched.
11:38I scanned the trees for 30 minutes, every rustle amplifying my unease.
11:44Around midnight, a sharp snap, like a stick falling, came from my left.
11:48I stared into the darkness, seeing nothing.
11:51Then, looking back toward the trail, I froze.
11:54The figure was back, joined by others.
11:57Maybe a dozen, standing motionless among the trees, facing the cabin.
12:02My body screamed to run.
12:03I bolted inside, locking the door, my mind racing.
12:07Footsteps approached the cabin, slow and deliberate, circling to the porch.
12:12I held my breath, listening to their boots thud against the wood.
12:16They didn't speak, didn't make a sound beyond their steps, moving with eerie coordination.
12:22I stood frozen, expecting them to break in, but they just waited, silent, for 10 agonizing minutes.
12:29Finally, I crept to the window and peeked through a sliver of the blind.
12:34The porch was empty.
12:35They were gone, without a trace.
12:37I grabbed my car keys and fled, driving down the dirt road, half expecting an ambush.
12:42But the forest was empty, and I made it to town.
12:46I haven't returned to the cabin since, though I know I'll have to eventually.
12:50The thought terrifies me.
12:51Who were those people?
12:53Why drain my generator and stock my cabin, only to vanish?
12:57I have no answers, just questions that keep me up at night.
