The account

2004. Came home from my shift, went to bed. Locked the door with a key. Half-asleep I heard a pop and then footsteps, I was a bit freaked out. It was summer, the window was wide open so I thought it was noise from the yard or I imagined it, that happened sometimes when I was falling asleep. Now I hear distinct movements in the kitchen, I even got chills. First thought was to find something heavy, I thought someone had broken into the place, I grabbed a tennis racket. I carefully peek through the doorway into the kitchen and see a guy sitting on a stool, his back to me. Well, I'm thinking, this is fucked, either bolt out the window or whack him across the back. I try to get a look at him. Grayish hair, beige coat, on his head a 60s-style hat with a feather like Robin Hood. Next to him a narrow suitcase. He leaned over like he was reading something. Then he stands up and, putting something in his pocket, turns around. Seeing me he smiled and raised his hands like he was surrendering. He says: "Excuse me please, don't be alarmed, I got the wrong apartment." Glasses, big square old-fashioned ones, a tie. Looks like Chikatilo. I'm sorry, he says, can I use your bathroom? I'm kind of in shock, I point at the front door with the racket, like get the fuck out. He stands up, says thank you, and like a total psycho he fucking bolted into the bathroom. I'm standing there in shock waiting. I hear a muffled pop like that. I wait about three minutes. I open the door and there's fuck all. A strong smell of metal. Whoever I told doesn't believe me. Devils exist.

2004г. Пришел со смены, лег спать. Дверь закрыл на ключ. В полудреме услышав хлопок а затем шаги, чуть прихуел. Было лето, окно на распашку поэтому подумал шум со двора или померещелось, такое бывало когда засыпал. Теперь слышу отчетливые движения на кухне аж озноб охватил. Первая мысль найти что нибудь тяжелое, подумал кто-то проник в хату, взял ракетку для тениса. Осторожно заглядываю сквозь дверной проем на кухню и вижу типа сидящего на табуретке, спиной ко мне. Ну все думаю пизда, съебать через окно или уебать ему по хребту. Пытаюсь рассмотреть его. Седоватый в бежевом плаще на бошке шляпа из 60х с пером как у робин гуда. Рядом с ним чемодан такой узкий. Наклонился словно что то читает. Тут встает и кладя что то в корман поворачивается. Увидев меня улыбнулся и поднял руки словно здаваясь. Говорит: -Извеите пожалуйста, непугайтесь я ошибся квартирой. Очки еще такие большие, квадратные старомодные, галстук. На Чикатилу похож. Я говорит извеняюсь, можно говорит я туалетом воспользуюсь вашим? Я как бы в ахуе показываю ему ракеткой на входную дверь, типа уебывай. Он встает говорит спасибо и по охуевши запиздил в туалет. Я в ахуе стою жду. Слышу приглушенный такой хлопок. Жду минуты три. Открываю дверь а там нихуя. Сильный запах металла. Кому рассказывал, неверят. Черти существуют.

As a child, the narrator saw a huge white semi-transparent figure waving at him near an abandoned dairy in the village of Staro-Arzamatovo; years later a local confirmed that schoolchildren had also seen the entity.
