It was a unique and bewildering experience for me, one that I had never encountered before. The incident was entirely real, and its perplexing nature has stayed with me ever since. It happened on an extremely hot summer evening, a day that felt more like mid-May despite it being only March 5th. I used to work at a factory as a manager, though my position was relatively low, which meant my shifts were unpredictable and exhausting. After finishing my shift, I returned home drained and tired, eager for a refreshing shower and some cold water. As I stepped out of the shower, I hurried toward the fridge for a glass of water when suddenly, the lights went out. It was incredibly frustrating, especially after a long shift and facing the heat once again. I accepted my situation and entered my room, which was stifling due to the absence of a fan. I opened the windows to let in some air. Allow me to describe my house and surroundings. My house is a single-story structure, with my room located at the farthest point from the other rooms. Adjacent to my room is a small jungle-like area, beyond which lies a pond, followed by a newly constructed building. As I opened the window, a gust of cold wind struck me, providing a refreshing yet chilling sensation. While drinking cold water, my mind wandered into darkness outside the window. I felt the urge for a cigarette, so I lit one and began smoking. Suddenly, my sister called me for dinner, and I followed her. After completing my routine, I returned to my room, moving like a robot following orders. The room felt unnaturally cold, unlike the outside temperature, which was hot. An eerie feeling crept inside me as I prepared to light another cigarette. After a few puffs, I heard an unearthly scream coming through the window. The sound was unclear but persistent. I moved closer to the window to listen carefully. It appeared to be a female voice, crying for help. Unsure of the source, I stepped onto the terrace and followed the direction of the sound. I noticed it was emanating from near the building and the pond. I couldn’t see any figures or discern any conversation; it was just repeated screams pleading for help. At one point, I thought I heard her saying, “Help! Help! He will kill me. Please, someone help me.” After about five minutes, I decided to stay on the roof and record the voice. The screams eventually stopped, only to resume more intensely and loudly. Surprisingly, no one in the building or passing by seemed to wake up or notice. I started recording, but everything was pitch black. The screams continued repeatedly. I called my friend to share what I was experiencing. He dismissed it, suggesting I was hallucinating. I even considered calling the police, but doubt crept in—was it even real? I was more confused than I had ever been in my life. After approximately forty minutes, the screaming ceased entirely. Suddenly, one of the building’s lights flickered on for a few seconds before turning off again. I heard a dog barking from the building, though I didn’t know whose dog it was or what it looked like. I had only heard it barking at night before. That night, after the chaos subsided, the dog barked again, but it sounded different—more subdued, almost silent. I then descended and sent the recording to my friend. Exhausted, I went to sleep, closing my windows for safety. The next morning, I took a stick and ventured into the jungle toward the building and pond. The area was littered with broken branches, empty liquor bottles, plastic waste, and garbage, but nothing unusual or suspicious. I looked around aimlessly for a while but found nothing. As I was returning home, I heard a faint flapping sound from a distance, coming from the right side where I was standing. It was a crow, and as I approached, I noticed the rattling of its wings and the sound of dead leaves. Near the bird, I saw a white dog lying lifeless on the ground, with no movement. The crow was sitting on its belly, as if preparing to start a meal. The dog had a clean, precise wound on its belly, resembling a cut made intentionally. I searched for a weapon but found none. I dug a grave and buried the dog at that spot. After that, I never heard any strange screams or noises. This remains one of the most confusing and terrifying incidents I have ever experienced. An additional perplexing detail is that, upon reviewing the recording later, I found that it contained no voices—no sound at all, not even my own voice, which I had intentionally omitted to prevent my friend from thinking it was fake. This entire experience continues to haunt me, leaving me with more questions than answers.
