Man Goes To Old House To Get Cat, Realizes There’s Something Else Hiding There

Hiding In The Corner

Paul never expected to walk right into a scene straight out of the movies when he went to check on an elderly relative’s home. Paul recalled that the encounter felt like something from the movie Alien.

He felt his heart pound in his chest as he shone the flashlight onto the massive creature huddled in the corner of the darkened room. Before he could determine exactly what it was, it crawled down the stairs with a deep growl.

Best Interests

Paul Russell’s distant relative had recently moved out of his home in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, at the age of 82. Before a mysterious illness left the man incapable of looking after himself, he had been living alone.

To keep a closer eye on him, his family had found a place for him in a nursing home closer to their place. Although it was obviously in the man’s best interests, his family was unaware of the strange chain of events that this decision would trigger.

A Sad Situation

The nursing home controversially did not allow animals on the premises. Sadly this meant that the man’s cherished 17-year-old Siamese had to remain behind. Paul realized that this was his opportunity to come to the rescue.

Paul and his wife were self-proclaimed animal lovers and already owned several cats. Would one more really matter? That said, Paul would soon learn that Siam wasn’t the only “animal” residing there.

Wasting Away

The man lived alone on the edge of Pittsburg, and because of this, his condition gradually deteriorated over some time. His poor cat’s condition had taken a turn for the worst due to the lack of proper care.

As most people would, Paul had predicted that some chaos littered the home. But he could have never known just how much of an understatement that would be.

Dark House

After Paul had made his way up the driveway and through the door, he flicked the light switch on and off with no success. First things first, though. He would have to go down to the basement and find the breaker.

He walked back to his car and grabbed his emergency flashlight. But then, as he shone the light down the corridor, he almost let it fall from his grasp.
