You know what, though? My power and plumbing never went out. I was apparently on the White House grid. Aliens could have been the answer and I’d have been like, “My toilet flushes and I have a heater even in blizzards. Aliens aren’t my business.”

Having a shitty apartment that never lost power, water, or heat in a major city when I was 23 is probably the most unbelievable part of this story, to be honest. I didn’t care if it was haunted.

Ghosts can’t even touch you. I’m not paying $400 a month extra for no ghosts. Float on through. Give me the haunted place, a sleeping bag, and a 13 inch TV. I’ll negotiate with the ghosts.

Yo, this is the funniest shit ever! The thing I will never forget is how steep stairs felt going upwards because of the row houses. The owl head shape of the place too. Illuminati =P!
