Last night I got the most ridiculous scare. It was way after midnight; the whole house was asleep except me, and I was already getting ready for bed. At 12.48am, the doorbell suddenly started to ring. Terrified me to bits – who was coming to the house this late at night? I sidled up to the window and peeped from behind the curtain - and there was no one there. The doorbell didn’t stop ringing though – and I concluded that the doorbell must be spoilt.

It stopped after a while, and then I went off to bed. The doors to the bedroom in my house are pretty sound-proof, but I could hear the doorbell faintly going off again incessantly.

I already knew the doorbell was faulty, but at the same time I didn’t dare check it out. It’s pretty spooky that late at night and when you’re up alone all by yourself.

Finally my maid woke up to use the washroom and she heard the bell go off, so the two of us went downstairs together where I tore off the batteries out the chimer.

Talk about ridiculous!
