CloggedDonkey said:don't worry to much. I do think that ghost exist a little(house I lived in caught fie and the town photographer that lived there was burned alive in the fire, I had plenty of "ghost like things happen" to me there) and I think that if it is some kind of entity, that it is only minor and won't do to much. in the morning, do some research on the house and learn about it. if the house is fine and dandy, it was a cat, if it has had a death, get a proton pack.
You want something thats actually real.....watch the haunting in conncticuit. it is a true story but dont always think that the way they potryed it in the movie is real...... the texas chainsaw massacure was REAL but it had noting to do with a chainsaw.need proof that the haunting in conneticuit was real? watch the credits.they show real photos of the house and they all show some ghost in the picture..
sorry about the rant.
OT:good thing you found your dog so at least if it attacks you, you will have backup and do barricade yourself in the room if you dont want to go out there and fight it yourself.
