Sooo ... I used to own a house built in 1890. LOVED that old dump and worked very hard on it.
Many nights, around 3:00am I would hear three sharp knocks. Rapid, but with a pause between. Sometimes on my bedroom door, sometimes on my headboard. NO LIE.
I never felt afraid, but did wake up, of course.
Once, in the second floor sitting room I saw a figure of a man. He didn’t seem menacing, just observant. Another time I saw a similar figure outdoors in the backyard. I had a feeling of “approval” wash over me. He was tall and thin, with a blue shirt. Over five years I heard the knocks countless times. I finally moved and sold.
Couldn’t keep bats out of that place, and if it’s one thing I cannot deal with - it’s BATS.
I have have a few other super spooky things happen elsewhere. VERY spooky.
I wonder what the importance of the three knocks is in both of our stories is. . . strange.
