Sometimes, weird things just happen. They're unexplained, supernatural or just weird until you understand what actually took place. I figured I'd start a thread for all things creepy and unexplained. This doesn't necessarily have to involve the paranormal but anything that just didn't make sense and scared you at the time.

Here's mine:

Last night, I'm in the hot tub. It's late and pitch black outside as it was nearing midnight. I hadn't done this yet but everybody was in bed so I got brave and yanked off my bathing suit. Not 30 seconds into enjoying the freedom of being nude in hot bubbling water, I heard the most God-awful screeching sound come from the woods behind the house. I heard three or four warbling high-pitched screeches and then nothing but silence. Now my rational mind knew it had to be an animal but instinct took over and I jumped out of the hot tub, wrapped myself up in a towel and booked it inside.

I went on You Tube and listened to a few animal sounds and from what I hear, it was probably an owl but I'd never heard one make that kind of sound before. Just the "Hoot Hoot" you expect to hear, not a screech. And especially since I had just gotten brave enough to take off my suit and it's right at that moment I hear it. lol! Not cool. Mystery solved but it still scared the heck out of me.

Anybody else have a creepy or odd story to share?
