Bad Man
by Sunny
We had moved into our apartment in February 2006 in Rock Hill, South Carolina. We couldn't believe we got such a great two-bedroom apartment for only $450 a month. It wasn't until June 2006 when a relative and I noticed strange occurrences in my daughter's room. We were in my bedroom with my infant son, and we saw something like a white ball floating to her room. We just looked at each other puzzled. We both just kind of shrugged it off. This kept happening, as the months progressed.
Then around October 2006 something started to change. My daughter falls asleep with the TV on, but I always set the timer so it would cut itself off. I would get up around 3 a.m. and her TV would be on. At first, I thought it was me, you know, forgetting to set the timer. I started writing the times down, because I thought I was going crazy. In time, I knew I wasn't. Only one person knew what was going on and that was my cousin. I decided I had to tell my daughter's father, and he just shrugged it off.
It was around this same time in October 2006 that a neighbor of mine had some unusual things happening to her. We have bolt locks on he front and back door, and she has had both of them to just fling open in the middle of the night. She thought someone was trying to break in, and later moved. There was never any evidence that someone broke in. My other neighbor heard footsteps, but she said she went downstairs to check it out, no one was there.
Well, new people moved in my old neighbors apartment quickly and now experienced the same things, but more depth. They have a little girl just as I who started saying, "Bad man, mommy. Bad man in my room." This was creepy to me, because my little girl started saying that around December 2006. I just thought it was her imagination, since she does have a vivid one. We exchanged stories of experiences and her little girl was saying the dame thing.
Then one day, about March 2007 my neighbor heard her little girl screaming saying, "Bad man touched me!" Well ,the police were called again to the same address as before with my first neighbor. The difference this time, one side of her diaper was undone. I asked the landlord to install a new lock, which she agreed to. I steadily kept an eye on my daughter throughout the night, and my almost one year old son. She started having really bad dreams to the point I had to sleep with her, while my boyfriend stayed with our son.
Then after three days, things quieted down, and got finally got some rest. I thought everything was going to be alright now, with the new lock installed. It wasn't until last night, April 24, 2007 things started up again. It always starts around 3 a.m. for some strange reason. I heard three loud taps like someone was banging on a pot. I hurriedly got up looked in every room nothing was there. Now we're definitely moving, having unseen visitors is not my cup of tea.
