This was Steven, Lydia, Michael, and Matthew’s first and second night in the house. Steven and Lydia set up the kitchen while the boys played upstairs. Lydia wanted so badly to sleep in her room that night, so she was the only person sleeping upstairs. Steven set up his canopy bed in the living room for him and the boys, since they were getting new beds that would arrive the next weekend.
“Each of the interior doors had an old-fashioned hook and eye latch, but they weren’t located on the inside of the doors, so anyone within the room could maintain privacy-but one the outside as if to keep someone in the room.”
“Slightly irritated, I hung it [the angel pictures] a third time, but this time, when I turned and began to walk away, I felt a rush of air and something hit the back of my ankles. ‘What the hell…’ I turned to see the picture lying at my feet.”
“People don’t like walking in front of our house, Dad. Isn’t that weird?:
“She looked at me with sleepy eyes and said, ‘I was, Daddy, but my closet door kept opening up. And it sounded like boxes were moving around in the room. I got a little scared so I came down here.’”
