Paranormal Factor

Our house is surrounded by woods. At night it is very quiet, a slightly creepy. During the fall, the moon is so bright in the sky on most nights that you barely need the outdoor light. The air is fresh and clean. We live on top of hill by a large lake. Since the summer months have ended, things are very quiet.

My sister-in-law was outside walking the dog at about 2:00 a.m. All of the sudden I heard a frantic barking from our larger dog. She came back into the house looking upset. She said that she seen a large dark shape that hissed at her in the woods. It sounded like a cat, but it was too large for that.

The dark shape ran from a neighbor’s lawn into the woods. She said she could tell it was relatively large from the sound that it made in the woods, much too large for a cat. I pretty well figured that maybe she had seen another type of animal, but I couldn’t figure out for the life of me why it would make a hissing noise.

So, I decided to investigate. I went outside by my bedroom window. All was dark and silent on that side of the house. Suddenly, our large dog began to fuss. He looked scared. It didn’t take me long to get back into the house and lock the doors. We have had trouble in the past with a young man that lives on the corner. He would harrass our windows late at night, and committ other acts of mischief. Fortunately, we caught him red handed so I know it wasn’t him.
