FOOTSTEPS
A winter evening, Susie is left with her sister to spend the night at the house. Susie's mother has gone out, and left her daughter doing homework at the kitchen table.
After a few hours, Susie hears the door open and shut, and greets "Hi mum," but no response, she still continues her homework. The footsteps march upstairs. After a few seconds, the footsteps then come down, this time it is harder. Susie looks up to see the door closing, thinking her mother is running late for a meeting.
The door then opens and closes and the footsteps are creating a louder sound, as if someone is running. Susie looks up to see noone. She called her mother's name, no answer. Feeling uneasy, Susie calls her mother. "What's the matter?," Susie's mother asks "Oh nothing, I was supposed to call someone else," Susie lied. Right then she knew someone was in the house.
Frightened, Susie hides on the ground by the couch and stares at the reflection of the TV. The mysterious stepper walks in the kitchen and can be heard entering the living room, where Ssie was, but she could not see anyone. She heards the footsteps climb up the stairs again.
She remembered that her sister was still upstairs sleeping in her bedroom. Susie starts crying quietly and slowly walks upstairs. She finds her sister sleeping quietly in her room. Susie then hears the footsteps run downstairs opening every door and closing it. It gets rampant, sounding like it is getting aggrivated.
Susie screams at the creature to "get out." It obeys. The door opens and shuts with a strong force. Susie walks downstairs, frightened. She looks out the window, strangely, though, there are no footprints in the snow outside.
read something like that in a "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark" book, same with some other stories too
