I live with my Granddad in Central London. He went on holiday and left me in the house alone for 2 weeks.

　　The house is over 200 years old; he has owned it since 1982. Nothing unusual has happened since he has been living there, until Monday night.

　　I was just about to go to sleep. It was about 12am. The house is creaky as its old but what happened next was not a normal occurrence and I know it wasn't my imagination, I thought it might have been at first but I soon found out it wasn't.

　　All the houses in The Mews are connected. As I was just dropping off, I heard a loud banging noise. I told myself it was just the neighbors and to stop making myself paranoid. I heard a man shouting, it sounded as if it was coming from the basement (the door to my basement is underneath my bedroom). It went quiet for a few minutes until I heard it again. This time it was much louder, it sounded like someone was kicking the basement door (which was locked). This went on for about 3 minutes.

　　我和我爷爷一块住在伦敦市中心。他出去度假了，把我留在家里，我得一个人待两个星期。

　　我所住的房子有两百多年的历史了，1982年爷爷成了这儿的主人。自打住这以后，一切都很正常，直到那个周一的晚上。

　　那时已经快要凌晨0点了，我正要睡着，因为房子很旧了，所以吱吱作响也很正常。但是接下来发生的一切就不太正常了，而且我知道那不是我的臆想。我开始也以为是我自己幻觉，可是很快我发现并不是。

　　这儿所有屋子的地下室都是相连的。我刚要睡着，突然听到砰砰的巨响，我心想可能是邻居，告诉自己不要乱想。我听到一个男人在大叫，听上去好像由地下室传来的(地下室的门就要我卧室下面)。接下来安静了几分钟，然后我又听见了叫声。这次声音又大了不少，听上去好像是有人在踏地下室的门(地下室的门是锁上的).这次又持续了三分钟左右。
