Last night I had a dream, I was being attacked by somebody. I asked them not to hurt me and was talking so loudly in my sleep that my flatmate came in to see what was happening and woke me.

That is not the spooky part - sleep paralysis. The spooky part was what my flatmate told me this morning. He said after he had went to see me and I drifted back to sleep there was noises around the outer of the house.

It was female heavy-heeled footsteps, the kind one hears from female boots with about a 2 inch heel walking around the outer of the house and not being able to get in.
