My parent’s bought their house in 1996. The family that owned it before us renovated the basement to be an apartment complete with its own kitchen and bathroom. So obviously, at age 15, I lived in the basement apartment. I stayed in that basement apartment until 2013.
I had this TV stand that I used for storage space. It sat next to the bathroom door. It had a couple old computers on it, some boxes of random junk, and a ton of DVD cases. They were all empty cases. I had separate storage for the discs themselves, but I had a thing about not letting go of useless items.
In the living room, which I didn’t really use much there were a couple of old couches. The family cat preferred to hang out there on one of the couches. So there’s the setting.
One night, probably around 11pm, I went to use the washroom. The cat was on the couch, no one else was home. I opened the door to leave the bathroom, and suddenly, a DVD case shot from the TV stand and hit the wall across the room. At the same time, the cat jumped up, arched its back, and started hissing. Then the cat ran up stairs. That was the only time this happened to me in that basement. Only time I saw that cat, who recently died at age 22, hiss or arch his back.
I’ve only had a few experiences in my life that I would consider paranormal. I don’t really believe in this stuff very much to tell you the truth. But I could not figure out any other explanation for the dvd case to fly across the room or for the cat to be startled like that. I believe something was there that night.
