Knockin Good Time

I was having my 14th birthday party at my house, and six of my closest were there, sleeping over. All seven of us were in my family room, with our sleeping bags spread on the ground. Our family room isnt very big, not small, either, but one entire wall is a window facing the street.

Anyway, me and my friends decided to have a seance, just to prove to ourselves that there are no ghosts and that we shouldnt be getting scared over nothing. So we closed the curtains over the huge window, lit some candles, and sat in a big circle on the sleepings bags on the floor. We closed our eyes, joined hands, and chanted for spirits to appear. After about 5 minutes of this, we started opening our eyes and giggling at how stupid we were being, fearing something that wont happen. Then, my friend Marie said, "Guys, wouldnt it be creepy if there were spirits in this room right now?" Just as she said this, we heard a LOUD banging on the window, accompanied by several lights. We all started screaming our heads off, thinking we were going to die, and we started half running half crawling out of the room. Seven people trying to pack through a single door didnt work. Still screaming, we found ourselves trampling each other, trying to get the hell away!!! Finally out of the family room, we stood in the hall, and saw my dad come in through the front door with a huge smile on his face and a flashlight in his hands. We realized that it was just him playing a mean trick on us, and we started laughing, not even realizing the pee-stains on our pants from the fright! LOL!

That was the last time I had a seance...
