The 10th-Floor Phantom
When I was with my family in South Africa we lived in two rooms. I had to live in the same room as my mother, and my brother with my dad, since we didn´t get along very well. Anyway, one night my mother woke me in the middle of the night and said “There´s someone in here”. My heart rate goes through the roof, and we turn on the light (maybe not the smartest idea, I mean, what would we do?) and there is no one there. I then remembered that we live on the 10th floor so there couldn´t be anyone in the room. So we go back to sleep after some time. In the morning our money, cellphones and things like watches were gone.
