This story happened when I was still in High school. I was living alone at our provincial residence in Tarlac, my parents left me there because they needed to work in Manila and they know that I can take care of myself. I have a dog and a cat that's why I'm not afraid of being alone even though our house is notoriously haunted by beings not visible to the naked eye (I will post it on my next story) until one night after our school foundation day.
Our foundation day is one of the most festive event in our school it is celebrated the whole day with parade of the King and Queen, school competition, games and programs that are very fun to watch. Since I'm a COCC officer, we are in charge in cleaning up the area after the event and leave the venue late.
I was a third year high school student at the time. I left the school together with my fellow officer and our cadets during a bright full moon. Even though we are tired you can see the smiles on our faces because we enjoyed the event. I went home first because our house is the nearest from our school and this is when my frightening experience happened.
I was welcomed by my pets with joy. I'm so tired that when I came home I turned-off the light, went to my room together with my pets and lay-down on my bed. I heard a noise on our roof after I turned off the light but I was too tired to even entertain the thought.
While lying down, it was so quiet that I can hear our wall clock ticking, this is when I noticed the sound of throwing sand on our metal roof, my tiredness went away and was changed to fear. I immediately covered myself with blanket and closed my eyes. Then I heard heavy footstep running on our roof just right above me as if they are playing tag. I heard our antenna wire snapped and I heard the wires whiplash sound on our roof (Our antenna is fixed on our roof supported by wire). The noise stopped after 30 seconds or so but it feels like forever. I thought the haunting already stopped until my dog under the bed barked so hard as if he is seeing something or someone in the room with us. I was scared to death and hugged my cat so tightly who is growling and her hair was raising. I was so scared that I almost peed my pants, I plan of running outside but I'm afraid of what I'll see standing in the room with me until I felt someone poked my back 3 times that is when I believe I past out in fear and fell asleep.
During my slumber I heard my electric fan being played with; someone or something turned it on and off. I'm too sleepy to check it but what I'm sure of is the my fan is at full blast before I went to bed only to wake up sweating and my fan is turned-off. I was so scared with the whole ordeal that's why I went to my grandmother's house and she told me what I need to do like throw salt on the roof and onion on the window.
The following night I invited my fellow officer to sleep at my place and the sound of throwing sand on our roof started again but this time I'm not that scared since I have company. They asked me what they are hearing I told them that's the reason why I invited them to sleep at my place that night and they were scared to death but the haunting that night stopped after the throwing of sand.

Also, it's been a year and I'm curious if you followed your grandmother's advice and if the hauntings have stopped. Your story was quite a nice read, though, and my father had a similar experience when he was sick.
