Up All Night

My Office is Haunted

My company moved into a different office space in town in January of 2019. During our first week in the new building, employees from the office across the hall came out to greet us. One of the first things they did was tell us about the man they have seen out in the hallway.

Several employees started reporting strange occurrences not long after settling in. Several employees reported hearing things when they were alone in the office. Footsteps around them. Papers shuffling in neighboring cubicles. I myself am only one of the individuals who experienced this.

One day, I was having a one-on-one meeting with a co-worker in a conference room and was discussing a routine work issue. I was sitting at the end of a long, rectangular conference cable. My co-worker was sitting next to me along one of the two longer sides of the table.

While talking, something flies between us at a very high speed. It was about eye-level with us.We both noticed it and when I got up to pick up the item, I discovered that it was a small bead. The area of the room that the bead came from had no one or anything there, it was an empty corner. We both saw the bead fly between us and had I not had a witness in there, I may have never told anyone about it.

Another incident that occurred in the office involved two of my co-workers. They were the last two in the office one evening and were on opposite ends of the office space. One of them approached the other and asked if they were playing music. They told them that they were not and said they thought the other person was playing music. They both walked around the office and went into a large conference room. While standing in there they both heard faint music that was coming from this room. There were no devices in the room that music could be playing from. They couldn't identify what the music was, as it sounded muffled and distant.

The most recent time I had forgotten to submit a report and my boss sent me a text message reminding me that it was due. At around 9 PM that night I drove to my office to complete this report and get it submitted. Not long after completing the report I went back out to my car to drive home. I started driving down the hill by the office. Suddenly, a white figure is RUNNING from the side of the road and is going out into the road in front of my car.

I don't know if you've ever had the unfortunate experience of an animal running out in front of your car. If you have then you know the feeling of clenching up and preparing to hear a thud when you come in contact with it. I slammed my brakes and clinched up, preparing to hit it and when it reached my hood it disappeared.

I have had a handful of paranormal experiences in my life. This was the single most vivid and terrifying experience I've ever had. I have no doubt in my mind that there was an adult, human-like figure running towards the road that night. I had to drive to a nearby store parking lot to sit and collect myself before driving home.

The building that our office is in is only about 20 years old. It's near a shopping complex that was built in my small town only 30 or so years ago. Prior to this plaza existing, this area was almost only uninhabited forests. I am unsure if at some point in the more distant past there were people who may have lived on the land.
