Grandma Calls The Police When She Hears Unusual Noises Coming From Inside Her Walls

The Unsettling Noises

Edith Montgomery sat in her rocking chair, knitting small jerseys for her cats. The rhythmic click-clack of her needles was interrupted by strange noises she had never heard before.

She paused, frowning as the noises grew louder. Although she was 82 years old, there was nothing wrong with her hearing.

She sat motionless, trying to catch the distinctive sound again. It sounded to her like scratching and clawing noises. Where was it coming from?

Disturbed Nights

Night after night, Grandma Edith’s sleep was disturbed by the unsettling noises. It sounded like scratching and scuttling coming from somewhere within the walls of her old Victorian house.

Despite her best efforts, she couldn’t ignore it. It was keeping her out of her sleep. She was a busy woman, and she needed a good night’s rest.
However, these past few days, something was keeping her awake at all hours of the night. It was beginning to scare her.

A Last Resort

Finally, Grandma Edith couldn’t take it anymore. After trying everything she could possibly think of, she did something as a last resort.

She picked up the phone and dialed the local police station. Officer Jones answered, listening patiently as she described the strange occurrences in her home.

She pleaded with him to come and take a look. This situation had to be resolved once and for all. She couldn’t take any more of this disturbance.

Officer Jones Arrives

Officer Jones arrived at Grandma Edith’s house, expecting a routine call about a noise complaint. However, as soon as he stepped inside, he could sense that something was off.

The atmosphere was heavy with tension, and the old woman’s eyes were filled with fear. “Mrs. Montgomery, what seems to be the problem? You look terrified. Is everything alright?”

Edith stood in her living room. She had a wild look in her eyes. “Wait. Shhh. Just listen. Something is scratching and clawing in my walls and floors. Just make it stop, Officer Jones. Make it stop!”

Investigating

With Grandma Edith’s permission, Officer Jones began to investigate the source of the mysterious noises. He made his way through the house, looking in all the crevices and crawl spaces, shining his flashlight into the dark recesses beneath the house.

Edith cautiously stood behind him, wondering what Officer Jones would find. As Officer Jones searched the crawlspace, he made a startling discovery.

There, in the shadows, he saw something move. His heart pounded in his chest as he realized that he was not alone down there.

Confronting the Unknown

Summoning all of his courage, Officer Jones moved closer to the source of the movement. What he found left him speechless. He let out a cry and quickly scuttled out of the crawlspace.

“Mrs. Montgomery! You are not going to believe what I just saw! Stand back! I have to call for backup. Stay close to me, and don’t make any loud noises.”

Edith stood back, too afraid to even ask Officer Jones what he had seen. But from what she could make out, it was something terrifying.

Agitated

It looked like whatever was in there was now agitated because it had been spotted. The noises had become louder and more pronounced.

Edith braced herself for whatever had found itself in her house. She was beyond terrified. It was now up to Officer Jones and his team to help her.

Would they be able to get whatever was in there out in time, or was it already too late? Grandma Edith didn’t know what to think at this point.

Grandma Edith

Edith Montgomery lived in her old Victorian house for over six decades. She and her late husband, Ernest, had bought it just before they got married and she had lived there ever since.

Edith and Ernest never had any children and lived happily together alone. However, when Ernest passed away, Edith initially felt a pang of loneliness.

However, the neighbors on her street were always there for her. The children of the neighborhood started calling her Grandma Edith because she felt like everyone’s grandmother.

Very Popular

But that didn’t stop her from making friends at the nursing home that she would frequent to play her weekly bingo games.

Edith was very popular at the Olive Grove Nursing Home and Care Facility. She was always the life and soul of the place, and everyone loved her lively energy.

Edith would show all of the nursing home residents what living really was. She would kick off her shoes, dance for them, and sing karaoke.

Her Cats Start To Act Strangely

However, when Edith came home, she was back to being alone. At least she had her two cats, Peter and Paul, to keep her company. She loved them very much.

It wouldn’t be long before things started getting very strange in Edith’s house. She first noticed it when her cats started staring at a particular spot in the living room.

They seemed to be interested in something. At night, they were very skittish, and Edith didn’t know what had gotten into them.

On Edge

Edith didn’t know what they were so fascinated with in the living room and why they were so on edge. She was about to find out.

One night, as she was knitting in bed, she heard a frightening sound coming from somewhere downstairs.

Edith was fully prepared for anything. She had a panic button that she received from the police department if she ever felt unsafe.

Investigating The Noises

But this sound was different. To Edith, it sounded like scratches and clawing. As soon as she heard it, the cats also sat up. They were fast asleep on the bed, but when the loud noise traveled up, they sat up looking very spooked.

Edith grabbed the panic button and decided to go downstairs to see what was making that noise. She didn’t know if she was making the right decision, but she needed to see for herself.

When she got downstairs, the noise was much louder, and Edith became very scared. She didn’t know what it was, but to her, it didn’t sound like a person.

Defending Herself

She was a frail old woman, but she was still up to defending what was hers. The noise seemed to be coming from inside her walls or beneath the floorboards.

She grabbed a broom from the kitchen and started hitting the walls and roughly sweeping the floors. “Get out! Find yourself another place to stay! There’s no space for you here. I already have two cats,” Edith said as she tried to shoo whatever was there away.

Little did Edith know that the noises would only intensify. This was only the beginning of things to come. Edith was in for a very bad time.

The Noises Get Louder

The noises eventually stopped, but then, in the middle of the night, as Edith and her cats were fast asleep, a loud sound jolted her out of her slumber.

“What was that?” She immediately jumped out of bed. This time, it sounded like someone was trying to get inside her house.

It didn’t sound like scratches anymore. It was loud thuds, and Edith was worried. She began thinking if she should call the police or press the panic button.

What Was She Dealing With?

But as soon as she came downstairs, the thuds and knocks abruptly stopped. It was like whatever it was had heard Edith and decided to stop.

What exactly was Edith dealing with here? “Yeah, you better keep quiet! I have to get my beauty sleep! Knock it off!”

Edith then trudged back upstairs and managed to sleep for the rest of the night. However, that was not the last that she would hear from the noises.

Calling Pest Control

In the morning, the first thing Edith did was call pest control. She was convinced that her house was either infested with some kind of insects or rats.

When they arrived, Edith explained the situation to them: ” My cats and I have been hearing strange sounds coming from the walls or the floorboards. I think it’s insects nesting, or it could be rats. Whatever it is, could you please remove it? Don’t kill them, please. Just remove them and put them somewhere else.”

With the instructions that had been given, the men got to work on Edith’s house. However, after two hours of work, they had some odd news to share with Edith.

What They Found

As Edith was sitting on her porch knitting, one of the men approached, looking very confused. “Ma’am, we managed to open a section of your walls and lifted some floorboards, but unfortunately, we didn’t find anything.

“Your house has no insects or pests of any kind. There are a few house spiders here and there, but they could definitely not be causing any noises.”

Edith was left dumbfounded. Nothing in her house could have caused the noises. How could that be? Surely, she and her cats weren’t imagining everything. Were they?

Not Her Imagination

That night, Edith sat up in bed, waiting to hear the sounds again, and it wasn’t long before she and her cats heard the loud thuds and scratches again.

“We weren’t imagining it, guys. There it is. What could it be if it isn’t insects or rats?” Edith asked her cats, hoping that they could give her some answers.

Edith lay down in bed, unable to even close her eyes because the noises were keeping her up. What was she going to do?

Unsettling

At exactly 3 am, Edith’s cats, Peter and Paul, ran downstairs. Edith was startled when she saw the two of them hurry away in a flurry of fur.

She was bewildered. She now heard more creaking and something that she was sure sounded like footsteps.

She pulled the blankets up to her chin. This was becoming very unsettling and creepy now. It was then that Edith realized what she could be dealing with.

She Knew What She Was Dealing With

The next morning, as she was making herself some tea and giving Peter and Paul some breakfast, her mind was overflowing with thoughts.

She was trying to make sense of what she thought was happening in her house. But as she sipped on her soothing tea, Edith was convinced of one thing. Her house was haunted.

It made sense. It was an old 19th-century Victorian house, which would explain all the creaking floorboards and other thudding noises.

Haunted House

The idea of her house being haunted sent shivers down Edith’s spine. She had heard stories from her neighbors about strange occurrences in old houses like hers, but she never thought it could happen to her.

As the day passed, Edith couldn’t shake off the feeling of unease. Every creak of the floorboards made her jump, and every shadow seemed to hold a lurking presence.

She decided to confide in her neighbor, Mrs. Thompson, who had lived on the street for decades. Mrs. Thompson’s face paled as Edith recounted her experiences.

She Knew What To Do

“Oh, dear Edith,” Mrs. Thompson said, her voice trembling, “I’ve heard stories about this house. They say it’s haunted by the spirits of its former owners, unable to find peace.”

Edith knew something strange was going on in her house, and now that Mrs. Thompson had confirmed it, there was only one thing left for her to do.

She had read in the newspaper that a team of ghost hunters was in their town, and they could communicate with spirits so that they would leave your house.

Calling The Ghost Hunters

This was exactly what Edith wanted. She wasted no time. It was time to get her house back so that she and her cats could live in peace and harmony again.

She quickly found the newspaper and dialed the number. Edith was so relieved when they picked up the phone. She immediately explained her situation, and the team was eager to come by to investigate.

Edith breathed a sigh of relief. With the team coming over, she could finally have her house back and no longer have to worry about hearing all the strange noises—or so she thought.

The Ghost Hunt Begins

As dusk settled over the quaint neighborhood, Edith anxiously awaited the arrival of the ghost hunters. She paced back and forth in her living room, her heart racing with anticipation.

Finally, there was a knock on the door. Edith rushed to answer it, greeted by a group of individuals dressed in black with an array of mysterious equipment.

The lead investigator, a woman with piercing eyes and a confident demeanor introduced herself as Sylvia. “We’re here to help you, Mrs. Montgomery. But I must warn you, things might get a bit intense,” Sylvia said with a solemn tone.

Edith nodded, her hands trembling slightly. She was ready to confront whatever malevolent force lurked within her home.

The Seance

The ghost hunters wasted no time in setting up their equipment, placing cameras and recording devices strategically throughout the house. Once everything was in place, Sylvia instructed Edith to sit at the center of the room as they prepared to conduct a séance.

With clasped hands and closed eyes, Edith felt a chill run down her spine as Sylvia began to invoke the spirits that dwelled within the house.

“Is there anyone here with us?” Sylvia called out into the darkness, her voice echoing through the silent room. For a moment, there was nothing but an eerie stillness.

What Did They Find?

However, the more the team asked for anyone to come forward and make their presence known, the more silent the house became.

It seemed like nothing, or no one, was present in Edith’s house. Could it really be? At the end of the seance, the team packed up all of their belongings and left.

Edith was left feeling very disappointed. The pest control team found nothing and now the ghost hunting team came up short as well. What was going on?

Disappointed But Determined

Edith’s disappointment quickly turned into frustration as the strange occurrences persisted. Night after night, she was tormented by the unsettling noises echoing throughout her home.

Unable to endure it any longer, Edith made the decision to confront whatever was haunting her house head-on.

Armed with nothing but determination, she ventured into the darkest corners of her home, searching for answers.

Rumors Start To Spread

Meanwhile, rumors began to spread throughout the neighborhood about the strange happenings at Edith’s house.

Whispers of ghostly apparitions and restless spirits filled the air, casting a shadow of fear over the once peaceful community.

Desperate for a solution, Edith turned to the only person she felt she could trust: Officer Jones. Despite his initial skepticism, he couldn’t deny the genuine distress in Edith’s eyes.

Speaking To Officer Jones

Edith didn’t know what more to do. She decided to call Officer Jones because she trusted him, and he would visit her from time to time to check if she was alright. He was the one who gave her the panic button to be safe.

“Officer Jones, I just don’t know what to do anymore. At first, I thought my house was infested with either insects or rats. But when the pest control guys found nothing but the usual house spiders, I was confused.

“Then I was convinced that I was sharing the house with a few spiritual beings. I thought my house was haunted. But that, too, was debunked. Apparently, it’s just me, Peter, Paul, and a few spiders here.”

Officer Jones Takes Charge

Determined to put an end to Edith’s nightmare once and for all, Officer Jones embarked on a thorough investigation of the house, leaving no stone unturned in his quest for the truth.

But as he delved deeper into the mystery, he soon realized that the source of the disturbance was far more sinister than he could have ever imagined.

Officer Jones was about to get the fright of his life as soon as he found himself in a crawlspace of Edith’s huge Victorian house.

Hidden Areas

As Officer Jones meticulously combed through every inch of Edith’s home, he stumbled upon a hidden trapdoor tucked away in a forgotten corner of the basement.

With a sense of foreboding weighing heavy on his chest, he cautiously lifted the trapdoor, revealing a narrow staircase that descended into darkness.

With a flicker of his flashlight, Officer Jones descended into the abyss below, his heart pounding in his ears with each step he took. The air grew thick and suffocating as he delved deeper into the unknown, guided only by the dim beam of his flashlight.

A Scream

Edith waited for Officer Jones to emerge, hoping that he would have found something of significance down there. She was surprised that there were so many hidden areas in her house.

These were areas that neither she nor her husband, Ernest, had encountered in all the decades they had lived in the old house.

Perhaps this was where the noises were coming from. Edith hoped that she could finally get some answers. And that’s when she heard a blood-curdling scream.

Finding The Source Of The Noises

Edith’s eyes widened in shock. “Officer Jones? Officer Jones, are you alright? What’s going on down there?”Edith waited for him to respond, but nothing came.

Just then, Officer Jones came racing out of the crawlspace. “Mrs. Montgomery! I think I found the source of the noises down there! Stay close, don’t go near! I have to call for backup!”

Edith was beside herself with worry. Officer Jones claimed to have found the source of the noises, but he wasn’t telling her what it was.

The Revelation

Edith couldn’t take the suspense anymore as she watched Officer Jones pacing up and down her house while he was calling for backup. She needed to know what was going on.

“Officer Jones, I need to know what you found down there! You can’t just leave me in the lurch. What if my cats or I are in danger? Please tell me what’s down there.”

Officer Jones looked at Edith. He could see the fear in her eyes. She was right. He had to tell her. “Mrs. Montgomery, you have a black bear rolling around under your porch.”

A Bear

Edith’s heart skipped a beat at Officer Jones’ revelation. A black bear? How could there be a bear under her porch? It seemed unimaginable, yet the evidence was undeniable—the scratching, the thuds, it all made sense now.

Fear gripped Edith as she realized the danger lurking just beneath her home. She glanced at her beloved cats, Peter and Paul, who were now huddled close to her, their eyes wide with terror.

“What are we going to do, Officer Jones?” Edith asked, her voice trembling. “How did a bear end up under my porch?”

Not Uncommon

Officer Jones hesitated, his brow furrowed with concern. “It’s not uncommon for bears to wander into residential areas, especially in search of food,” he explained. “But we need to act quickly before it becomes a threat to you or anyone else in the neighborhood.”

Edith held her two cats close to her. She didn’t want either of them to get in the clutches of the bear. Edith loved all animals, but she didn’t want to share her house with a bear.

It was time for the bear to be removed and moved to its natural habitat. Edith and her cats would then be able to get a good night’s sleep without any disturbances.

A Race Against Time

With the urgency of the situation weighing heavily on their shoulders, Officer Jones wasted no time in coordinating a response with his fellow officers and wildlife authorities.

Together, they formulated a plan to safely remove the bear from beneath Edith’s porch before it could pose a danger to her or anyone else in the neighborhood.

As they awaited backup, Edith couldn’t shake the sense of unease that settled over her. She knew that time was of the essence, and every passing moment brought the risk of a potential encounter with the bear.

The Rescue Operation

With the arrival of backup, the rescue operation swung into action. Wildlife experts carefully approached Edith’s house, armed with tranquilizer darts and specialized equipment to safely sedate and relocate the bear.

Edith watched anxiously from a safe distance as the team worked tirelessly to coax the bear out from its hiding place beneath her porch.

With bated breath, she prayed for a swift and peaceful resolution to the harrowing ordeal that had plagued her home for far too long.

A Glimmer of Hope

Finally, after what felt like an eternity, the bear emerged from beneath the porch, its massive form casting a shadow over the surrounding area.

But instead of aggression, there was a sense of resignation in its eyes as the tranquilizer took effect, causing the bear to slump to the ground in a peaceful slumber.

Relief washed over Edith as she watched the wildlife experts carefully secure the bear and prepare it for transport to a more suitable habitat.

A New Beginning

With the bear safely removed from beneath her porch, Edith felt a weight lift from her shoulders. Although the ordeal had been terrifying, it had also brought a newfound sense of gratitude for the safety and security of her home.

As she bid farewell to Officer Jones and the wildlife experts, Edith couldn’t help but feel a sense of renewal in the air.

With a newfound appreciation for the resilience of the human spirit, she returned to her home, ready to embrace whatever challenges the future may hold, knowing that she was not alone in facing them.

Support From Neighbors

In the days that followed, Edith found solace in the support of her neighbors, who rallied around her with offers of assistance and words of encouragement.

The once unsettling noises that had plagued her home were now replaced with a newfound sense of peace and tranquility.

With the help of her community, Edith set about repairing the damage caused by the bear’s unexpected visit, reinforcing the foundations of her home and ensuring that such a frightening ordeal would never happen again.

Reflecting On Events

As she sat on her porch one evening, knitting quietly as the sun dipped below the horizon, Edith couldn’t help but reflect on the events that had unfolded.

Despite the fear and uncertainty she had experienced, she had emerged stronger and more resilient than ever before.

She glanced over at Peter and Paul, who were curled up contentedly at her feet, their playful antics a reminder of the joy and companionship they brought into her life.

Thriving

With a gentle smile, Edith realized that she had everything she needed right here—her loving cats, her cherished memories, and the unwavering support of her community.

She was not just surviving; she was thriving, embracing each new day with a renewed sense of purpose and determination.

As the stars began to twinkle overhead, casting a soft glow over the neighborhood, Edith closed her eyes and whispered a silent thank you to the universe for guiding her through the darkest of times and leading her to this moment of peace and serenity.

Grateful

As the night deepened, Edith remained on her porch, savoring the stillness of the evening and the gentle rustle of the trees in the breeze.

It was a moment of quiet contemplation, a chance to reflect on the journey she had undertaken and the lessons she had learned along the way.

In the distance, the faint sound of laughter drifted in the air, a reminder of the warmth and camaraderie that permeated her close-knit community. It was moments like these that filled Edith’s heart with gratitude and reminded her of the beauty of human connection.

Peace

With a sense of peace settling over her, Edith allowed herself to surrender to the tranquility of the night, knowing that she was surrounded by love and supported by those who cared for her. As she closed her eyes and breathed in the cool night air, she felt a deep sense of contentment wash over her.

And as the first light of dawn painted the sky with hues of pink and gold, Edith welcomed the new day with open arms, ready to embrace whatever adventures lay ahead. For in the heart of adversity, she had discovered the strength to endure, the courage to persevere, and the resilience to thrive.

And so, with a heart full of hope and a spirit unbroken, Grandma Edith Montgomery faced the dawn of a new chapter in her life, knowing that no matter what challenges may come her way, she would always find sanctuary and solace within the walls of her beloved home.
