I got sock-on-the-doorknobbed by my landlord last night. At some 3 PM I received a text message that I needed to be out of the house last night because some "inspectors" were coming in to look at the house.
Already there's a problem, in that I received no notice whatsoever for this night I would have to spend somewhere other than the room I had paid money to rent, but this was just the tip of the iceberg.
I was told thereafter that I needed to vacate immediately since they would be coming in an hour. The "inspectors" showed up about twenty minutes later, by the way. Landlord said they needed free reign of every room in the house until the morning.
Problem number two: There's a laptop, a hard drive, a sewing machine, and several other small items in my room that might fetch money when you steal them and sell them to someone. Here is where the water level is. The iceberg is massive under the water.
These people- get this- are Ghost Hunters. I'm being kicked out for the night because my landlord thinks the house is haunted. Now, I'm pretty sure that there's no ghost in this house, as I have yet to experience a single anomaly myself and I have been here for a month and a half now. I know where to look for stuff like ethereal apparitions and static repeaters and stuff, too- I have done this before. I have nothing but word of mouth to go by that would make me think anything about this house is even remotely paranormal.
Issue number three: where do I go, then? I live more than two hours away from my house, so that's out. I could chill in a Denny's all night, but that sucks ass, so that's out. Time to call in favours. Maguma was so gracious as to put me up for the night, so I headed up that way with all of my valuables in the back of my truck so that a team of ghost hunters can traipse about the house and look for things that are not there until 4 am, at which, by the way, my landlord sent me a text message detailing that they had gone and I was free to return at any time.
Good, good to hear.
How was your night?
ghosts,
stupid
