Sometime after moving to Oklahoma, my
niece (she and I are the same age) had a boyfriend that she wanted me to
meet, so one night I drove her over to his house. We knocked on the door and
the boy’s mother invited us in.
They had a large family, and apparently
all were home. The lady of the house invited us to have a seat on the divan,
which we did, and soon were enjoying a lively conversation.
When the room finally quieted to gentler
tones, we began hearing the strangest whistling that we had ever heard
before or since.
"Wooo-weeee -ooooohhh"
is the best I can describe the eerie sound.
"Someone is whistling
outside your door," I stated, glancing at my niece's new boyfriend.
"Well, open the door, if you
don't mind." he replied. I did, and no one was there. The uncanny noise
continued..."wooo-weeee-oooohhh." Never had we heard such a
haunting sound as this!
Finally, after the family had a good
laugh, they told us to put an ear close to their wall clock. We did, and
could easily tell that the strange noise emanated from the timepiece.
All I could say was: "If I lived
here, I would throw that clock in the trash can, after I smashed it into
little pieces!"
