My old house

Author: Iqbal

I was 9 years old when we found a new place to live. I was so nervous and excited at the same time, It was me, my brother, my sister, and my parents who were moving. At first when I saw the place, I was a bit anxious, but I got over it. One night we were unpacking and I foot steps coming from the attic. I didn’t think to much of it as first because hey its a old house, sometimes you hear these things. It was 11:00pm one night, me and my two siblings were fast asleep. Then around 1:15am, I started hearing footsteps coming from the attic. Then I woke up my sister and asked her if heard anything, but she said she was fast asleep and didn’t hear anything. Then the next day, I was so surprised, I was like who could have been making those footsteps. Then the next night around midnight I could hear those same footsteps, but this time more louder that it woke up both my brother and sister. At first we thought it might be one of our parents. Then the next morning, we asked them who was in the attic last night making such loud foot steps. They said they were fast asleep and didn’t go in the attic last night. We were so shocked. The next night me and my siblings were watching TV, it was a Friday night so we were up like until 3:00am. In the middle of the night we started hearing those same footsteps coming from the attic. We decided to go in the attic and check it out, but we were to scared. So we went together and when we got there it was icy cold. The attic looked really old and dusty and it seemed liked no one had cleaned it for a long time. So after a few months we moved to a new place. At this place we didn’t hear any footsteps or feel any cold spots. To this day, I always wonder if my old house is haunted and who lived there and what happened to them?
