I started a new job about a month ago. It was okay at first, being kept fairly busy with customers in the restaurant and guests at weddings. There were a few times that I felt as though I wasn't alone in the room or I was being watched. A few times I saw shadows from the corner of my eyes, but I generally just passed it off as the light.
One day, I was doing a continental breakfast, and I was alone, just me, the staff at the front desk, and one of the managers wandering around. I was sitting at the hostess stand, because there was nobody there and I didn't really have anything to do. I was looking down at the floor, and I saw someone walking towards me. It was clearly black pants, and black shoes, what waitresses typically wore at that point in time for our uniform. I looked up, thinking it was one of the other girls in to help or something, but there was nobody there, and I was the only one wearing that uniform at the time.
Later on in the other room I heard a crash, went to check it out, and there was nothing that could have made that noise. Once or twice I thought I heard someone calling out, but that may have just been the music.
Then tonight, June of 2012, we were dead. We have all of five people come to the restaurant, but they all went to the bar for drinks, so the bartender was helping them. At one point there was nobody there, so me, the bartender and the cook were chilling at one of the tables, talking and folding linens. All the sudden, a guest came to the door, and the bartender and I started walking towards her because we didn't hear what she was saying. Then she asked where the front desk was. We told her, and then she asked if the place was haunted. We replied that we didn't know, and I piped in that I felt something sometimes. Well, she looked a little freaked because the bartender said the same thing. She then walked to the front desk.
After a few minutes she came walking back, and looking even more freaked out, informed us that there had been a paranormal investigating group that came to check it out. She walked back to her room. I felt a little freaked out after that. We ended up closing early since we had really no customers. I drove the cook home, since he usually rides his bike, and didn't particularly want to tonight. On the way to his house, I listened to a different radio station, since the one I usually listen to was breaking up. I figured it was just where I was. However, on the way to my house, I switched it back to my normal station. It was still breaking in and out, but not as bad. Suddenly, it switched to the station I had been listening to earlier. It just broke in, steady, no crackling or anything. In a spot where when I drive I usually have no problems. It kept doing that for the few minutes I had left.
I don't know if that was paranormal, if something followed me from work, or if it was just a solar flare or something. I just hope it was a solar flare.
