I have two that still bug me years after the fact. One involves pop
tarts and the other is a cabin out in Oregon. The pop tart one still
bugs me on a regular basis since it hits me every now and then when I
wake up in the middle of the night. Here...old repost of mine.

Was around 17 and had gotten home from work rather late. Went straight
to my room to change and found myself hungry. It was probably around 1am
by this time and I didn’t want to cook anything and make too much noise
as I was afraid I’d wake the parents. So when I ventured to my kitchen I
started shuffling through the cupboards looking for a quick fix of snack
food to tide me over until the morning.

Now our kitchen was positioned so that the kitchen door led to our back
yard. The door itself was an old wooden door but my dad had added one of
those metal security gates on the outside for good measure. It was one
of the security gates were the holes on the door were small enough so
that insects could not get through and therefore we could leave the
wooden door open in the summer to allow for a breeze to go through the
house. In addition to the security door, my dad had also installed one
of those auto security lights, you know the ones……they go on
automatically whenever their motion sensor is triggered. Usually the
light would only go on when I would let my dog outside to pee at night.
However, on this night he was already lounging in my room waiting for me
to come back with some snacks for him as well.

Anyways, getting ahead of myself. So, I was busy creeping through the
cupboards and finally hit the jackpot with some pop tarts. Knowing my
dog, I didn’t want to chance him snagging the tart from my hand as I ate
it so I busted those things open then and there and ate them raw(I am
hardcore like that). As I am standing there eating the first pop tart I
hear a faint whistling sound from outside(wood door was open). At first
I thought it was the wind but then I noticed that the whistling was a
distinct tune and not random whistling. I didn’t know the tune but I
could tell that it was from a song…sounded like a happy and sad song all
rolled into one(know that doesn’t make sense buts that’s the best way I
can describe it). After standing there for around 20 seconds I decided
that it must be one of my friends that’s lives down the block screwing
with me. Maybe they were on the other side of the fence and whistling
there to scare me. Right when I am thinking this thought I see the
security light suddenly turn on. I quickly looked around the surrounding
area but don’t see anyone or anything that could have set the light off.
The whistling is still going on……

Now I am in semi panic mode. Is it one my friends? If so, where are they
hiding? If it’s not one of them then who is it? I am stuck standing
there now and can’t move as I stare outside waiting for something to
happen. Nothing does….a minute or so goes by…with the whistling
continuing and the light remaining on. Suddenly the whistling gets
louder and I see the door knob to my metal door start to move up and
down and I can see through the metal door to see that there is no one
there. The whistling sounds like its right outside now and the door knob
keeps moving like someone is trying to get in. The security light is
still on so I have a clear view of the front of the door and know for
sure there is no one there. Fuck the pop tarts….I dropped the box and
jetted back to my room, slammed and locked the door and hid under my
blankets with my bat and dog.

I never went out to the kitchen at night after that.

a Short Film loosely based about the [Pop Tart incident, here it is-
