Tthis happened to me and my younger cousin a few years ago. I was taking care of my aunt and I had just put my cousin to sleep. I turned and started walking down the hall to the living room. I had just sat down when I heard my cousin scream. I got up and went into the room where she was sleeping. I saw her crying. I asked her why she was crying. She said something that I thought was scary. “There is no boogeyman,” I said, “just go to sleep.” I left and twenty minutes later it happened again. I entered the room and saw her crying. Then I heard a crash. From inside the closet. My aunt's closet door started rattling. It was a enormous dressing room with doors and everything. The doorknob began to turn back and forth until the door finally opened. I grabbed my cousin and we ran to my older cousin's room. I never told my aunt what happened. Even if I wanted to tell her, I don't know if I would. They have since moved and currently live in New Mexico.
Has this happened to anyone else caring for a child? I know that working as a babysitter is the perfect place for something completely terrifying to happen, and I wondered if this had happened to anyone else. On a side note, my little cousin is 8 now and I told her what happened and she thinks I'm trying to scare her. She doesn't remember it.
