Today, less than a day after my cranky downstairs neighbor passed away, I woke up to banging sounds against his apartment ceiling, like the ones he used to make whenever I walked around during the night. I'm shitting myself in fear. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was woken at 4 a.m. by the sounds of someone crashing down the stairs. I scrambled out, still half-asleep, to find out that nobody was in an agonized heap at the bottom. The walls are so thin in my house that I could hear the neighbour falling down HIS stairs. FML
Today, my downstairs neighbor died. I knew because the smell wafted up to my apartment. FML
Today, my neighbors in the apartment above me yet again had a loud fight, well past midnight while I was trying to sleep. I stood on my bed and pounded on the ceiling to shut them up. And now I'll have to explain the two fist-shaped holes in the ceiling to my landlord. FML
Today, I found out my upstairs neighbors filed a noise complaint against me for banging on the ceiling every night. They conveniently left out the part where they constantly stomp, shout, and do stuff that sounds like they're dropping bricks to the floor every night. FML
Today, after months of peace and quiet since January, a new family moved into the apartment below me ten minutes before I was about to go to sleep. They've been here for 30 minutes and already they're stomping and banging doors all over the place. FML
Today, I noticed that the walls of my apartment are ridiculously thin, when I heard my neighbor slowly walk up the stairs, slam the bathroom door, lift the toilet cover, take a pee and end with a nice "AAHH." FML
Today, the walls in my house are so thin that I heard my roommate yell from the bathroom upstairs, "Hear my butthole roar." Now I’m scared to use the bathroom after him. FML
Today, after my old downstairs neighbor, who would come upstairs to bang on my door and yell at me every time she heard a sound from me at all times of the day, had finally moved out, it became clear that my new downstairs neighbor gets drunk and yells at the TV in the early hours of the morning. FML
Today, I'm spending $1,400 on rent each month to hear my upstairs neighbor walk from one end of their apartment to the other, and then back again. This occurs pretty much all day and all night. Yesterday I woke up at 3:30 a.m. from the banging of steps. My other neighbor played his music so loud, I felt it through the wall. FML
Today, I woke up to noises from downstairs. I practically pissed my pants and called the cops. Turned out it was just my cat being a dickhead in the living room. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Maybe someone else lived with him, or possibly the landlord? If its someone else besides the landlord, go report it. That's some freaky shit..

where do you live OP? I am just curious to know since I am also Lebanese and we definitely need a follow up to see if it was someone who moved in without you noticing

For those who don't know, sage is burned as a Native American ritual to rid places of spirits

Don't forget Cas. And get the salt!
fadingaway 17
Somehow I'm not sure it would be a good idea to call Dean at this point.

Its better to use white sage. Its properties are more pure. Just saying. :D

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you.

See if someone else lives there and if no one does, run. Run every far.
onealmxwilson 18
When very far isn't enough. Run EVERY far.
RedPillSucks 33
obviously, its e-very. That's when you run so far that your body enters the internet, like when Timmy had to foil Mr. Crockers plans
nlm92 15
Not just some of the fars... all of the fars! Better safe than sorry op

Rule number 1: never provoke a ghost.

ksks1234 33
I usually do stuff in the night because I work late, it is cooler, I am a night owl. Maybe the family is the same.

Maybe you are mistaken, it sounds like this person is still alive.
