[00:30.69]Our Attic 1
[00:36.91]我家的阁楼
[00:49.13]Now surely I could not disappoint the only person
[00:52.78]who considered me afraid of nothing?
[00:56.02]I edged into the space and fired up the flashlight...
[01:01.14]I was completely taken aback
[01:03.71]by the sight that met my eyes...
[01:06.56]And quickly exited.
[01:10.51]I had noticed three things...
[01:12.73]a baby's rattle,
[01:14.35]an old-fashioned teddy bear
[01:16.73]and what looked to be a baby...
[01:22.03]As I re-entered the attic,
[01:23.97]with a more rational mind,
[01:25.66]and discovered what had appeared to be a baby
[01:28.02]was only in fact a doll.
[01:30.86]I sent Jonathan to get my camera
[01:32.85]and we took this photograph.
[01:35.75]I chuckled 2 to myself
[01:37.02]at how my mind had twisted the situation...
[01:41.57]We left the door unnailed,
[01:43.59]just resting against the gaping 3 hole,
[01:46.86]and continued on with the day.
[01:49.65]We did not think much more of it
[01:51.67]until that evening whilst
[01:53.10]we were watching television;
[01:55.58]we once more heard the noise.
[01:57.58]But this time it was significantly louder.
[02:01.38]That morning,
[02:02.27]I once again stuck my head in to the attic,
[02:05.65]and this time I almost screamed...
[02:09.48]Not from what I saw,
[02:11.06]but from what I did not see.
[02:14.05]The doll had vanished.
[02:17.02]I quickly nailed up the panel again...
[02:19.50]And to this day
[02:20.77]I have never again ventured inside our attic...
[02:25.07]And yes, on occasion,
[02:27.43]we still do hear strange noises
[02:30.05]coming from that space.
[02:33.34]Was it really just his imagination?
[02:36.12]I am not so very sure...
[02:39.82]I suspect that my attic might hold a sordid 4 past...
