The Lady On The Third Floor

 This has been happening to me for 3 years now. I'm single and I work with the AT&T phone company. I had moved into a single bedroom apartment on the 2nd floor. My name is Mark by the way. Anyway I had everything unpacked and I just finished talking to my friend on Facebook about my new place and that they should come visit sometime. I was greeted by almost everyone in the apartment complex when I saw an elder lady standing on the balcony just staring through my soul. "Hey what's up with the elder lady up there just staring at me?" I asked one of the residents. "Ooh that's Mary Mabel she.....she's very creepy, she hasn't spoken a word for 20 years ever since her husband Henry died of cancer" the resident said as I looked back up at her to see no one standing there. "Don't worry she stays to herself and hasn't bothered me" he said. Later on I had just finished watching sports center about 10 p.m and it was now lights out for me. As I was lying in bed I realized that her apartment is above me, room 674. I hear her dragging her feet and banging on her floor as if she was doing this on purpose to keep me awake but I was too tired and I have work tomorrow. For some strange reason I left my bedroom door open and I Swear on my life....I saw her in my doorway staring at me as I stared at the dark figure for about 5 minutes of what felt like an eternity. Maybe it was just an optical illusion or my mind is playing tricks on me, I tried to get myself to believe but it's what I really saw and it kept happening every night and she would get closer and closer until she was at the foot of my bed. "I want my Henry back" she said as I turned the lamp on to see no one. Ever since I have been locking myself in the bathroom with the light on afraid to fall asleep. Call me what you want but if you experienced what I have then it'll be a different story. I still hear her every night scratching on my bathroom door trying to get in.......she's been doing this for 3 years now and the scary part is.......she died a month ago............
