My neighbor is up all night
In the morning he’s never in sight
At one, he unlocks his door
Walks loud, thumping the floor
If I am asleep this sound awakens
What’s he up to? my mind beckons
I try to go out and peep
I hear him singing slow and deep
I guess he comes straight from the bar
He walks doesn’t have a car
I can hear him pushing chairs
As though he is in some despair
Next day the owner, came by to see
To clean up that flat and lend for free
There was a rumour, the house is haunted
‘No one is ready to move in’ he vented
I froze still in fear and fright
What’s the sound I hear all night?
Who comes in to stay in here?
‘Oh no! it must be a ghost’ I fear!
That night I stayed up till one
To look for someone there was none
I heard it! The thumping on the floor
This time there was a knock on my door!
Question to you: Would you open? 😊I have heard many horror stories. My close encounter with a Mr ghost was put up in my post: Silhoutte.
In response to Reena’s Exploration Challenge #155: Horror

Oh sh*t! 😱🙈
Have you heard of the story of the guy who peeks through the keyhole?

No.. really? I have heard of knocks on door. There was a time in Bangalore where people wrote “naaLe baa” meaning come tomorrow. 👻it was a message, the ghosts who knocked at doors, supposedly understood 🤨😅

Aa there’s a movie based on that right? Stree.. O stree kal aana.
The other story was a whatsapp forward long back. A guy stayed in a hotel room. He heard someone playing piano in the next room every day and he peaked through the key hole. He could see only the back view of a girl in white dress playing the piano. One day, he was waiting for her to play the piano, but she didn’t play that day. So he went and checked through the keyhole. All he could see was something in red color. So he went to the reception and enquired about the girl staying in that room. The recepionist replied that the room was not rented as its said to be haunted. He also said that many have spotted the ghost there and have told that its a girl in white dress and her eyes, red in color.

I couldn’t sleep for days thinking that the girl was looking right back at him 😄 Also, my brother made it worse by saying that most ghosts have black color eyes and that may be the reason why keyholes appear dark 🤦🏻♀️
Same here.?I don’t sleep for days after watching horror movies😄😅
