Back when i was around 10, I would always being having a sleep over with my best friend. For this story I will not be using any real names, just so his privacy is kept safe so for this tale I will call him Kyle. Kyle had been my best friend since i moved to my new school and I am still close with him to do this day however not as close, anymore it was Kyle's turn to have a sleep over at his, he invited me, my 2nd best friend Ryan and a kid who will all just put with because he was Kyle's cousin, his name was David. We Stayed up all night watching wrestling and playing guitar hero until Ryan had an idea to prank call people. Ryan went first prank calling a kid who picked on at school named Harry, Ryan would make Harry cry every day at school. Ryan pretended to be a girl and was flirting with Harry on the phone and Harry actually believed it and thought he had a new girlfriend and just as Harry was going to ask for the girls name, Ryan hung up on him. Everyone laughed and then it was Kyle's turn to go, he called some random pretending to be a telemarketer, they told him to "FUCK OFF" before hanging up. David was to scared to make one so I went, I did what Kyle did and dialled a bunch of numbers and hit call. Some creepy dude answered, I was trolling him for a while asking random questions like do you like KFC? To even weirder questions such as do pick your nose before taking a bath? My friends cried with laughter thinking "that's random as fuck" but the mans response scared us. He said "only if i can kill you first" we legit shit our pants, and hung out the phone straight away.
We all cooled down after a few hours thinking that the man we rang only would have been trying to scare us, before we heard a knock at the door. Kyle went to the door asking "who is it" the man replied "It doesn't matter I just want to talk" we all thought that was pretty weird so Kyle apologetically to the man said "sorry I'm not allowed to answer the door to strangers" before Kyle's dad came rushing down the hall way to answer the door. However when Kyle's dad got there the man had gone, with this we kind of thought he was up to no good. Few hours later Kyle's parents went to bed and we were all pretty weirded out at what had happened tonight, when we heard footsteps coming from out the backyard, Kyle's dog passed away earlier that month so it couldn't of been him unless it was the dogs ghost, which Kyle had said the dogs ghost still walks around at night. However this didn't sound like dog paws either it sounded like human footsteps, we then heard the back door open. Kyle rushed down to the back door to see what had happened, but no one was there, we followed not far behind him to scared to do anything. After finding no one there we decided to go back to the living room and call it a night, we turned the light off, closed the door and all went to bed.
After around an hour we heard the door open, I yelled out "Kyle, turn on the light" but Kyle was to scared, so we hid under our blankets in fear. Then we heard, a scream and the sound of someone slashing someones throat, I yelled again "Kyle turn on the light" but Kyle was frozen in fear same with the rest of the boys. We heard walking around the living room for a while before hearing the door close. I was so thankful that whatever was here had gone, I shut my eyes and went to sleep, however i had nightmares all night of David yelling at me saying "you should of turned on the light" and "you let me die" and what i woke up to scared me and my friends for life. I woke up to Kyle's mum screaming, and i saw on the wall written in blood "you should have turned on the light" and David's throat had been slashed. He had been murdered in his sleep, and it was his blood on the wall. I'm not sure if my prank call, the guy knocking at the door or the murder are connected at all. But it all scares me to this day. Each year we have memorial day for David and even though none of us were super close to him, we all still miss him.
