Knocking on a Second-Floor Window at Night
Notestrong language
Dunno what it was, but I was staying the night at my parents' place, they have a two-story house, I was sleeping on the second floor. I opened the window so it wouldn't be too hot. I'd just turned off the light and lay down. I hear something knocking on the glass. Monotonous. I thought it was a branch. I got up, turned on the light, looked out — nothing. Turned it off, lay back down — knocking again, nonstop. Turned on my phone flashlight — silence. Turn it off — again. I checked like 15 times. Lost my shit, slept with the light on.

Хз что это было, но я ночевала у родителей, у них двухэтажный дом, спала на втором этаже. Открыла окно, чтобы жарко не было. Только выключила свет, легла. Слышу — что-то в стекло стучит. Монотонно. Думала ветка. Встала, включила свет, выглянула — ничего. Выключила, легла обратно — опять стук, не прекращающийся. Включила фонарик на телефоне — тишина. Выключаю — опять. Раз 15 проверила. Психанула, спала со светом.
