When animal bones began appearing on our doorstep, my husband brushed it off as a prank. But as they kept coming, I grew uneasy. After setting up hidden cameras, we discovered our neighbor Hilton was behind it, trying to scare us away in search of a rumored treasure hidden in our house.
Police arrested Hilton, and we found a chest of family heirlooms, not treasure, in the basement. With Hilton gone, peace returned. The eerie noises? Just a neighbor’s cat sneaking in. Our house, once feared, finally felt like home.
