(The location this took place was in El Paso TX.)I grabbed my phone charger and plugged it in as soon as i plugged it in to the outlet i plugged the phone to the charger and slowly layed back and held on to my stuffed animal.it was raining leaving just thunder and lightning.the trees were blowing and dust was flying in the air i tossed and turned trying to fall asleep.a few hours later i fell asleep and the rain had stopped.Suddenly i heard a loud bang.i quickly got up and looked around to see what that noise was.i thought i was just dreaming so i layed back down and tried to close my eyes and fall asleep.but then a few seconds later i heard that same exact noise again.in the same exact spot.i seriously never felt so scared in my entire life.honestly I'm a very jumpy person when it comes to loud noises.i actually was brave enough to get up and leave my room.as i walked towards my door i slowly turned the door knob i looked down the hall way and saw something that had appeared to be tall figure standing at the end of the hall way.leaving me with nothing to say.i got chills running down my spine threw my legs and the hair on my arm was sticking straight up.suddenly the figure had disappeared and i felt a real cold flash as if someone ran past me.my grandma came out of the room,"Honey what are you doing and why are you up so late"?i tried to tell her what i saw but she didn't believe me she told me to go back to bed so i did she walked me to my bed and tucked me in.she left the room and shut the door on her way out.i thought i should just go back to sleep.i decided to get up and play the Sims 3(I'm like a real big fan of the Sims games.)i turned on my monitor and computer as i sat down

on the chair i heard an old woman's voice appearing to tell me what to do i didn't exactly hear what she said but it sure sounded like an older woman's voice.i got up quickly and opened my door once more looked around and didn't exactly see anything but i heard some thing it sounded like my grandmas poodles running down the wooden floor.the died a while back.i was clueless and had no idea what to do.i went back to my room and shut the door i played on the computer for maybe a good 2 hours and finally went back to sleep.the next day my grandma was gone with her friends and my grandpa was in the den i got up and ran to the den and said "Grandpa!! Grandpa!! guess what happened last night?!"What?"He replied.you're not going to believe what i heard!!"OK you know how we have wooden floors well remember how the poodles used to sound when they ran down the wooden floors in the hall way leading to my room?"i heard that same exact noise."Well that's weird because there dead.i interrupted and said i also saw a tall figure of a man.you did eh? well then it looks like you saw your grandmas father who had past away here when you were just a baby.i felt cold chills all threw my body.(i finally got the story right!!i was a baby and my grandmas mom and dad past away in this house that is here today.and also with the experience with the poodles running down the hall way?well it was the ghost of them.)i was pretty shocked then because i never believed in ghost.but now?i do.I've learned that my grandparents house is haunted and i will probably not ever want to go back to that day.(I hope you liked my story.this is the very first time I've ever posted something like this so yeah i'm not going to say this is the best.) i am 14 years old and i Live in San Antonio TX:D
