Shh…. They’ll Hear Us!

RAS Blog Post Banner

We have a story from Angie Simons. Angie now lives in Bridgeport, Connecticut. I have heard some creepy stories before, but this one is downright terrifying. I am not sure I would have stayed around after ! I might have looked into a nice sorority. Thank you Angie for sharing your story.

She has titled her story, “Shh…. they’ll hear us!”

Shhh...they'll hear us

This happened to me while I was in my first semester of college. Out of respect I will not name the school. I encountered this with six other girls. Our dorm used to be a hospital for kids who were terminally ill. Many many moons ago before it was turned into a campus dorm.

Now this happened on Halloween. It was a Friday night and most of the girls had gone out. As the night was coming to an end we were told that the lights were out in our dorm. There was a huge ice storm coming through that night and it knocked out the entire campus’s power. So me and my friend got a ride back to the dorm around 11:30 pm. As we drove on to the campus it was completely dark besides the car’s headlights. Also, it was a rainy ice mixture that was coming down pretty good, so it made the dorm look really scary.

We got inside and the girls were all camped out in the TV room for the night. They said when the lights went out a lot of stuff started happening and this is where they decided to stay until morning. The only light we had were the emergency lights that only lit up some of the hallways. Everything else was completely blacked out. This gave the whole place a dark creepy feeling.

My roommate was gone for the weekend. So, I would have been alone in my room, but my friend, her roommate and a couple of other girls decided to stay in my room with me. It was about 12 am when we all settled in and ordered some pizza. The rest of the town had power. The pizza came and we sat in the dark with our flashlights eating and talking. 

One by one everyone started falling asleep. My friend and I were the last ones awake. My bed was right by the door, my friend was on her mattress on the floor by the door, and the other girls were all squeezed together on the opposite side of the room. Now, all of a sudden in the dark you could hear laughing and giggling kind of far off in the distance. I just laid there because I didn’t know what to think but I stayed quiet and didn’t move. The noise got louder and closer. It was like every 10 seconds the sound got louder and closer. By this time my friend on the floor whispered to me, “hey do you hear that?” 

“SHHHHHH be quiet,” I snapped. 

I was terrified and didn’t know what to do. At the same time the other girls woke up and all at once said, “WHAT IS THAT?”

Now we could all hear them! Kids, running towards our side of the building. I was honestly shaking now. One girl started to cry and I told her, “shh they’ll hear us!” 

As I’m saying this the kids stop right outside our door. Then the door knob started to jiggle lightly at first and then it got a lot more aggressive. I told my friend on the floor to look under the door to see who was there. She looked and saw no one and the knob abruptly stopped moving. She jumped in bed with me. Then we heard the kids laughing, giggling again. They started running but this time they were moving away from the door and eventually it faded away. 

My friend and I didn’t go back to sleep after that. When the lights finally came on we got up, got ready and headed out for the day. We never really talked about what we experienced that night but it was so scary. I knew then that I wouldn’t stay in the dormroom again if the lights were knocked out, and I never did. – Angie Simons
