This happened a few years ago in our hometown. Our house was next to a flat on the left side, which was being rented by a family. The second floor of that flat unit, right next to our garage, had two rooms: one was the master's bedroom, and the other was a bathroom.

My encounter with a Dark Creature In a nearby Flat

The maid's room was on the first floor. Obviously, the maid would only use it at night when the day was over and it was time to rest.

One time, I spoke with my sister, and she told me that when she woke up early, around 7 AM, and was having coffee on the porch, she would always hear a noise like something was crashing coming from the flat next door. This would happen three times, consistently each week.

Once, when my sister spoke to the maid, she mentioned that she often heard that noise too, and thought it was just some cats coming into the kitchen and the other room. But she dismissed the idea, saying it was impossible since there was no way for the cats—or even rats—to get in.

So my sister told the maid to let me know, so I could check it out. I was really busy back then, but I also wanted to understand what was going on at the other flat, just to put my sister’s curiosity to rest.

One night, I saw the maid hanging outside the flat, so I approached her and asked if I could personally see the two rooms on the second floor. She agreed right away.

We went up to the second floor, and I looked inside the two rooms. The bathroom was a bit hot and lacked proper ventilation. It was the same with the maid's bedroom, but at least she had an electric fan there at night.

The maid also added that sometimes, while lying in bed, she would feel the bed shaking, and she would just assume it was probably a small tremor.

We went back down to the first floor, and I told her to buy a white candle. Once we had the candle, I placed it on a coin to keep it from falling. That’s the purpose of the coin, to stabilize the candle.

We went to the maid's room on the first floor, turned off all the lights, and put our mobile phones on silent so that we would have no distractions. We sat on the tile floor, about a foot apart, and I guided her into a meditation pose facing me. I had her close her eyes and meditate for three minutes.

Then, I called out to the entity disturbing the flat to appear before me in the form of the maid. After about six seconds, I couldn’t see the maid’s face anymore. All I could see was a shape, glowing from the light of the candle.

Then, I noticed the figure seemed to be slightly hunched, facing me, cloaked in grey fabric. The body even shook, as if breathing.

It was then that I realized that I was face-to-face with the dark creature. It felt warm, a bit hot; I wasn't sure if it was an elemental, I couldn’t tell its exact nature.

First, I thanked the dark creature for revealing itself to me.

Second, I asked if it could just stay in the vacant lot beside the flat where it could stay without anybody disturbing it.

However, if it wanted to stay in the unit, it should avoid making noises so it wouldn’t disturb the family as well as the neighbors. Indeed, maintaining respect for all creatures, whether human or otherwise, was of great importance.

Lastly, I told it that if it made noises again, I wouldn't be so nice to it the next time around.

I said all this vocally, and then I blew out the candle to dismiss it.

Days and years passed, and up until today, there hasn’t been any noise from that flat.
