My parents were at one of our neighbor's party far down the road. I was home alone watching TV in our living room. I had all the doors and blinds shut. I was under the blanket watching a random movie I don't even remember. I saw the lights turned on outside and thought my parents came back early. I lowered the volume on the TV to listen up for any possible sounds. I couldn't hear anything, so I decided to stand up and check if anybody was outside. Nobody! And I had no courage to go out and turn off that light. Then I heard something fall over outside. I went to check from the windows, but again nothing. I was very scared and convinced that something or someone was out there. I was hoping it was an animal.
I didn't want to move that much and made the TV off. Then I saw it! A human figure standing on the other side. The blinds were shut, but I could still see it standing there looking at me. I can't describe how I felt at that moment. My heart was beating very fast as I was sitting frozen on the sofa. I was afraid to even breathe as I heard the other person banging on the window. I wanted to scare it away so I said that I am calling the cops and that's what I did. I also called my father, but he didn't answer the phone.
I stood near the doorway for a moment and checked if it stopped. Then I saw the shadow behind the blind moving towards the door. I saw an old crazy man with long hair and dirty clothes. He started banging on the door with both hands screaming as he was mental. I run to the bedroom and called the cops again. I reported a crazy mental old man attempting to break into our house. I was told to hide somewhere and be safe until the police arrived. I went to hide under the bed when I heard the sound of glass shattering in the living room.
I waited for some minutes but didn't hear anything. I slowly unlocked and opened the bedroom door, and there he was. the old man with the long hair standing in the middle of the living room and staring at the broken window. He smiled at me, then came running and screaming. I started screaming as well and shut the door. He started knocking at the door and wouldn't stop. I could hear his breath on the other side and the minutes felt like hours. I started begging him to go away and leave me alone when I finally heard a bang on the front door. The knocking on the door stopped and I heard the cops scream at the man to step away from the door. That's when I finally came out.
