Don't know what to do.

Post by jazz82 »

Every night at a certain time, I hear someone come to my window and make a noise to wake me up. It would be one thing if it happened once or twice, but this has happened now for months. I currently have no income and urge my parents to get surveillance. They know there is a problem since they here someone come around the property at night too. But for some strange reason, they feel it is no immediate danger for them and refuse to get cameras. It is starting to take a toll on me in some adverse ways and I am becoming very afraid. Honestly, I feel like my parents know who it is and don't care. This concerns me and I am confused as to why they refuse to do anything about it. I need help. I can't move out because I have no income, and I do not know what to think of my parents. Someone please help me figure out something, anything.

jazz82 - that sounds frightening. Is it possible the sounds are not people?

It’s either a sound or at some point a strong smell comes into the room. At the same fucking time. And nobody cares. I change rooms. And it follows me to the next room. The sounds follow me to the next room. At the same time every night. It’s sickening and it scares me that my folks know what’s going on or don’t care. Either way I hate them for it and am strongly starting to resent them.
