House and its mysterious residents

For me, in my childhood, everything was mysterious to me due to my spying nature. I cannot sit calmly until i reach to the bottom of things. There was a house they said to be haunted and no one dared to go near or even inside it not only in night but also in morning. People have seen shadows and weird faces looming inside the house at night. Often screaming and moaning sounds can be heard from the house. Sometimes there was a pitch black darkness and sometimes there was a light circling in the house. My parents have forbidden me to go near the house.

One night I was looking at the house and thats when I saw a mysterious figure coming out of nowhere and entered the house without hesitance. I was amazed to see this. In morning, i looked at the house but found nothing strange. There were no signs of any human activity inside the house or its surroundings. I thought that it could be my imagination but still something was pinching inside my head and i could not put my finger on it. Next night, it was raining and i was enjoying the weather by looking out of the window and then suddenly the house caught my attention and i saw again the previous night mysterious figure running and entering the house. Again, I was thrilled and astonished to see this. Next day, i consulted my friends and told them about the whole situation. They didn’t believe me and become afraid but still agreed to assist me in exploring the house. We circled around the house to know its whereabouts and decided to come back when no one is around at night. As the night arrives and everyone was sleeping sound and peacefully in their bed. We came out of home and arrived together at the entrance of the house well equipped with necessary items. We waited and discussed our plan for some time and then without catching someone’s eye, we entered inside the house from the backdoor. It was pitch dark and quiet inside. We were using pencil torches and communicating with each other with hand signals. We were wandering inside and investigating the place when we have arrived in a room where there were scattered empty bottles of champagne and half burned cigarettes and a fresh aroma of burning cigarette was roaming in the air. As we are deciding and beginning to move forward, there was a noise of footsteps coming towards our room. We quickly hide ourselves in the room as much as possible and in the shortest period of time. The sound of footsteps was coming near and nearer and our hearts were beating and pounding like it will burst out of our bodies and then there was a tall figure wearing black cloak with a creepy face coming into the room from the door, grab a full bottle of champagne and moved out of the room. We were sweating cold with fear to see the figure but after seeing its action we discussed and come to a point that something’s wrong and we have to find out whats going out in the house. I decided to sneak at the black and mysterious figure and see where it came from. Leaving my friends behind to wait and following it, After following about a couple of minutes, I have come to a door of another room in which I saw the figure entering. I saw lights was coming out and there were sounds of people talking, coming out of the room. I was shocked and now looking some way to see whats going inside the room. I saw a lighthouse in the wall of the room and decided to peek from it.  I searched and grabbed a table from nearby area, climbed and stand upon it. By standing and peeking from the lighthouse, I saw a group of 10-15 normal people enjoying drinks, smoking cigarettes, a white powder and getting into argument in the middle of a hall like room. There were also bunch of creepy and horror face masks and long black cloths lying in the corner of the room. I rushed my way back to my friends, told them about the group and gone back to our houses to call the police. I told my father about what i have witnessed. At first he laughed, didn’t believed and listened to me but when he saw me drenched in fear, he somehow, called his friend who is a captain in police department. He said my father to relax as he will look into the matter as soon as he could.

For 5-7 days, nothing happened. No police official came to investigate and no procedure has been done instead i was regularly watching a man coming inside and outside of the house. I was in frustration and angry slapping at the walls that why the police force is quiet and hasn’t done anything yet. I began to think that my father’s friend didn’t believe my story so doesn’t bother to waste his time by looking into this case. One night i was sleeping then suddenly i heard screaming and shouting outside my house. I went outside with my parents and saw the whole neighborhood gathered outside of their houses. Police cars have been parked outside the abandoned house and the officials have stormed inside and apprehended everyone inside the house. They were smugglers that wore horror masks and clothings to freak people out so no one could come near the house and they can carry their dirty business with ease. There was a business deal going on when the police raided and caught everyone red handed. My father’s friend said that they were watching the house and alarmed of the suspicious activities going around the house and hence waiting and lurking out for the perfect time to catch the culprits. He thanked me and my friends for the brave and daring act which helped them in catching the mafia and drove away with his team and the criminals.
