ok /x/ i have an explainable story think you guys might be interested in. required image is unrelated

so this happened to me few years ago around this time, the end of winter. at the time my bedroom was on the second floor of a house, where i was renting a room. there was nothing under the window, and there is no ledge at the bottom of the window, its basically just sheer flat side-of-house 15 feet up, from the ground to my window. my bed was right next to the window, butted up against the wall. i would usually use my laptop with it at the head of my bed, me sitting in the middle of my bed right next to my window. i keep the blinds down and closed at night, but the blinds are old and shitty, and they don't close all the way, and a few of the pieces of the blinds, i guess you would call them bands, were missing.

so at the time i was just chilling, listening to some music and browsing facebook. it was a few hours after the sun had gone down and it was windy as fuck outside and it had been raining all day. i was really tired and planning on going to sleep in like ten minutes or so, just trying to get through the new stuff on my facebook newsfeed, when i hear something bump into my window. not a sharp bump like a rock, it sounded more like an elbow nudging into it.

so i look over at my window and i see something that's been burnt into my mind since then. like i said, the window blinds suck so i can still see through them pretty well, and what i saw looked like the head of a snowman, you know, like a head-sized ball of snow, the surface had the texture of packed snow and it was an off-white like beige but a cold beige (anyone who knows about colors knows what "warm" and "cold" colors are), with eyes that didn't necessarily look "human" but like something real and living, like the eyes you would see on any mammal (whites, circular irises, circular black pupils). no nose or mouth, but a bunch of narrow, deep holes where they would be, like 5 or 8 of these holes, they looked like if you pushed a bic pen tube into a snowball and pulled it out. that's all i saw through the blinds. there could have been more but it wasn't visible.

so i see this fucking thing and my heart stop, immediate cold sweat, just staring at in absolute shock for what felt like minutes but couldn't be more than a second or two. anyone who's had something really fucking sudden and startling happen to them knows what i'm talking about- time feels like it slows down and you experience things in a higher perceptual "resolution" than usual. so i see this thing, i'm shocked, and a second or two later my roommate knocks on my door so i look toward the door and this startles the fuck out of me because i'm already on edge. i look back and the thing is gone, and i'm too terrified to open the blinds and look out there.

it could maybe be explained by someone just fucking with me by putting something on a long stick and holding it up to my window to scare me as a prank, except for two things, which is that i saw it blink, and i saw its eyes dart to the side which i know would be impossible except for a really sophistocated animatronic or puppet. i know exactly what i saw, but i have no idea what the hell it was.

sorry its not a great drawing. i'm not an artist.

Sounds like some kind of spirit, a personification of the forces of nature. Why it tried to attract your attention, I have no idea. Maybe it was just curious.


 No.22958

If I were you, I would do a little research locally. Try to find out if there's any similar story in local folklore.

Okay that's pretty spooky. I'd move to a different place if I were you OP

>second floor of the house

What height exactly ? This can vary. Going by the average height it makes the prank possibility pretty implausible but you never now. Plus if this were a prank I think you'd have heard of the pranksters by now.

>>22958

This is a good idea.

Like I said, it was about 15 feet. I never measured it exactly

As for researching it… I'm not sure I want to know more. I mean of course im dying for answers, but it seems thst sometimes peoples curiosity gets the better of them with things like this and bad things happen. Maybe I've just seen one too many horror movies, I dunno.


 No.22977

Actually no, I take that back. I say "maybe I've seen to many horror movies" like they are inherently unrealistic, but that experience has crippled my sense of the line between fiction and reality. I don't want to find out what happens if I dig deep into folklore.

Best case scenario, I know what it is. Worst case I end up dead or insane or something I cannot imagine.

You'll never be able to move on if you don't face your fear and start investigating.

who says i haven't moved on? i'm not losing sleep over this and i hardly ever think about it. i only told the story here because i thought you guys would find it interesting or entertaining.

Have you thought about possible explanations, such as some sort of owl, or even a cat (if there's a possibility it climbed ledges or something up those 15 feet) or do you remember it very distinctly as something unexplainable?

also have you been watching lots of horror movies lately, or been browsing spooky stuff outside your comfort zone? I don't know about anyone else but I tend to see little weird movements and things when I overload on media

The owl sounds plausible, do you know if there are any local avians that match a close description of what you saw?

Alternatively it could have been a weirdo on a ladder. Possibly a thief (I assume your house was lit up, making this a stretch).

A reflection is possible if you have a pudgy pale head…
