Explain this

[LucidFlanders]

Please, i don't wanna hear some crazy storys, i just want a simple logic answer for this that happened many years ago to me. My dad went and took my dog ( RIP )for a walk, so i was laying on the couch because every weekend we gotta sleep in the living room on the couch instead of our bed, it was like a treat for me and my sis. Anyway, i start to drift off, i hear some noises in the basement (i know the difference between the basement and outside), i hear some things falling over like domimos (some big crashing sounds), then i hear some heavy footsteps coming up the stairs, like he was trying to make loud noises, then i hear footsteps coming to my back, so i am all scared and literally can't move, the steps stop RIGHT behind me, i'm all scared and say "go away" to whatever is behind me, then 10 seconds later i hear the noises in the basement again, then they vanish once my dad opens the door from the doggy walk. I go downstairs, nothing tipped over when you could hear the sound of alot of shit falling over. Logically...what the hell was that? i have always wondered, maybe a ghost? maybe my imagination? maybe the floor creeking...but i literally could hear all of this through my ears.

Anyway, i start to drift off, i hear some noises in the basement... That's probably it, you're starting to fall asleep and started hallucinating. Wait, hasn't this been posted before?

That's probably it, you're starting to fall asleep and started hallucinating. Wait, hasn't this been posted before? Nah, i was completly awake after. I sat up and still started hearing, i wasn't laying down again untill the footsteps.

Intresting. Well might be a hallucination (you sit up but your mind still isnt fully awake) or a ghost IMO

Obviously a demon.

^ Marvo's got it. Try stocking up on Phoenix Down next time. Make sure you don't take him on until you've at least learned Thunder Blade, too.

I say hypnagogia, SP and FA. I think most would say this if you posted it in the LD forums.
