“When I was in college, I lived in a really old dorm. It had not been renovated in over seventy years. We each had our own keycard to the place– which is important for later– and the doors automatically locked behind you once they shut.”
“The bedroom was designed with cabinets lining close to the ceiling. There was also a mirror and dresser space.”
“Anyway, winter break came, and I decided to stay back while my roommates traveled home. It was just my dog and me for the next week or so.”
“A couple of days in, I was taking a shower with the bathroom door open. I heard what sounded like a door slam in our door room. I peeked my head out and called out hello and my roommates’ names, but no one answered. I kind of shrugged it off.”
“A couple of nights later, I was getting ready for bed when I heard another loud slam from one of my roommate’s rooms. I froze, and my dog started going ballistic. She even hid under the bed. She weighed over sixty pounds and never hid.”
“I called out again and even texted my roommates to ask if they came home. They had not. The bedroom door was locked, so I could not get in there and assumed it must have been housing maintenance.”
“I forgot about the situation until a week later when my roommate came into my room with her face pale. She asked if I had been in her room and told me to go look at it.”
“She had fairy lights strung up that she never turned off. They had been cut in the middle and were hanging. The two cabinet doors had also fallen off, which must have been the slam I heard that night.”
“However, they laid on the floor stacked on top of one another. They were not underneath the cabinet but off to the right of it. It was honestly the most bizarre thing I had ever seen.”
“We asked housing if anyone had been in our apartment during that time frame, and they said no. Ever since that point, I had other weird experiences in my dorm from time to time.”
