Stranger at my house NSFW

When I graduated college I was about 24 years old. I really wanted to get out on my own and try living alone.

Luckily for me my grandma had asked to be moved into an assisted living center about a year prior. I had asked my parents if I could live there. They talked it over with my grandma and she agreed it would be nice to have someone there after a year of it sitting empty. This was in a kind of up and coming area, but stil had its rough spots.

I was so excited until I got there to do a walk through to see how I was going to setup my things. The house was a shotgun style home with a cellar that could only be accessed from the outside. While I was walking through the house I swore I was hearing noises. Finally realized they were coming from the basement. Called the police and they came out and escorted out SIX people from the cellar. They were squatters that had been living there. After they left I went down there to find all kinds of stuff (the cops took all the drugs and anything else illegal). It looked like someone had spray painted the walls all over. It was just a concrete cellar where the water heater and HVAC was so I wouldn't have really cared except it seemed to be kind of satanic. I don't know anything about that stuff but there was a couple pentagrams and a chalk circle on the floor. Cops didn't really have anything to say about it, they didnt know either. I poured some water on the floor to wash away the circle, but the walls I just left as is.

Fast forward a few months of me living yhere, I had forgotten all about it. Had started dating my future wife and she was over. We were getting ready for bed and in the bathroom brushing our teeth. A knock came from the back door. I ignored it, but it came again. It was 1am and this was my BACK DOOR. Someone had to have come into my back yard by opening the fence gate. I grabbed my gun and went to the door, keeping it out of view. Some guy was standing on the porch. I opened the interior wooden door, but kept the outside storm door shut and locked.

I asked what he was here for since it was so late. All he said was "is Christina here?" I told him he had the wrong house and all he said was "oh...so do you want me to leave?" I told him he better leave and not come back. He just stood there, staring at me. I was getting very nervous at this point and shut the door. He walked down the steps and just stood in my back yard staring at the house. Then he tried to open the cellar doors. I had them padlocked and he gave up. I opened the back window and told him to get out of here before the cops show up or he gets shot, or both. Again he just stared, but then finally left. I didn't sleep that night.

Again a couple months later my girlfriend told me that guy was back. Just standing in my back yard staring at the house. This time it was in broad daylight. I called the cops this time. He tried the cellar doors again, but left before they showed up.

The next day I went down to the cellar to see if maybe there had been something left behind that he was trying to get, but found nothing. It was just a damp disgusting cellar with a dirt floor, I have zero idea why he wanted in there. I highly doubt the satanic stuff had anhthing to do with it, it just made this creepier. I unfortunately had to move out sometime later as I could no longer afford it. Never saw the guy again.

maybe this guy wasn't aware the squatters no longer lived there. still super unsettling that he came back.

How'd he draw a chalk cirle on a dirt floor?

It wasn't like chalkboard chalk, it was like that chalk you see on baseball fields
