I usually get here at around 5:30 am or so (just so I can watch Netflix and drink coffee on the roof). The basement runs the length of the entire block from Family Dollar to Bargain in the Box. During that cold snap in December, I got here early at work (I was the only person in the building as no one gets here until around 8:30 - 9:00 am. I was on the computer minding my own, when I heard a woman scream bloody murder. It was a shriek more than a scream and it was from inside of the building. Trust and believe that I looked EVERYWHERE. I walked the length of the basement, went in and out of all the offices here (there's maybe 5 occupied offices out of maybe 13) and no one was here. It didn't come from outside, on the street or anything. So I come back inside my office and just ignored it. About 30 minutes later, I hear a little boy/young man say 'HEY' loud enough for me to hear it. I look and look and no one could be found. I walk to the basement (where Bargain in the Box stores all their stuff) to look around and no one was there. I go into the creepy sub basement and it had to have been maybe 30 degrees colder than everywhere else (our building has a brand new furnace so it stays pretty toasty all the time here). Nothing is ever in the sub basement but the feeling that I got just from being there told me to get out.
