Spooky shower time.....

This will be a long one so sorry about that.

I had a dream last night, which was like a memory type dream. Where you remember something that happened to you years ago that you had nearly forgotten.

So, when I was about 15 and living with my parents, our hot water and heating was heated by a gas boiler. Sometimes it ran out and we had to manually change the dial to switch to the full gas bottles and buy full ones.

This one time the dial was stuck, it wouldn't move at all. It was the middle of December in rural Devon in the UK. We had no fire at that time so no hot water or heating at all, not sure what to do we ended up packing our bags and going to a friends house.

The friend lived in an old farmhouse and ran the holiday place that had been built there in the 80s. Self catered holiday homes, built from the old farm buildings and converted. They let us use the shower in one of the holiday lets as they were closed during December. So we had free reign of the whole holiday house.

Mum and dad were in the main house with our friends, while I was left to shower and head on inside when I was ready to before sleeping in the big house. I'm getting undressed in the bathroom and forgot all my towels, so as I was alone I stayed naked and went into the front room to find the towels I had left behind. Grabbed them, brought them into the bathroom with me and put them on the closed toilet lid. Got in the shower and began washing myself.

After about five minutes or so I could feel a cold breeze blowing in from somewhere. Figuring it was a window left open or a door not quite closed properly I poked my head out from behind the shower door, and my towels were on the floor in the doorway. I know that no one had been in there, as I would have heard the very big solid oak creaking front door open. I thought they must have slid off on their own so I threw them over the towel rack and made sure they wouldn't fall off and got back in the shower.

Everything was fine, until I began to wash my genitals. When i heard a VERY loud growl and snarls from the bathroom. I stood stock still not sure what the heck to do in this situation. I'm naked, alone, and there's a thing growling at me. As i stand terrified, i notice that I cant SEE anything in the bathroom with me, but I can HEAR it. Something inside me made me shout out "IM NOT AFRAID OF YOU!" for some reason. And flung the shower door open and there was nothing. No dog, no human playing a prank on me, bathroom door was still closed and locked.

But my towels were on the floor again.

Feeling so scared and freaked out I just ran out of the bathroom, out of the holiday let, across the courtyard and into the big house pounding on the door. Totally naked banging on the door crying and hyperventilating our friend let me in. Saw me in such a mess and grabbed me inside and shit the door.

She brought me into the front room and stood my in front of the fire while my Dad ran and got me some towels. I turned around and my mother, and our friends entire family were sitting in the front room looking at me. Their two daughters were white as sheets and looked about as terrified as I was.

I explained what I had just experienced to everyone in the room, trying my best not to collapse in tears. When I finished telling them, the Grandma of our friends family looked at me and said "Did it only growl when you were washing or touching your genitals?" And i was like yeah more or less.

Everyone in our friends family looked at each other in a way that told me, they had ALL either had that same experience at one point or other, or been told by guests that it happened.

Turns out both daughters had the same thing happen in that same shower when they were having hot water issues. The mother had the same thing, as did one of the daughters boyfriends only the day before. Eventually I was calm and sat back on the sofa, still naked under my towels. NO ONE was willing to go get my clothes from the holiday let shower room, so Grandma went and got me some PJs they usually give to guests when they come to stay. I put them on while my parents held the towels up for me and joined them back on the sofa.

I didn't sleep that night at all, and was so scared of it happening again I spent the whole night with my hands deathgripping the headboard of the bed as to not touch myself anywhere.

ANY idea what the hell it was? Some kind of demon that's against self hygiene or something? I have spent the last ten years trying to think what it could have been. Turns out that at least 20 guests have experienced the same thing while showering in that holiday let. Rumor has it, that there's a well of some kind underneath the floor of that particular building and that might have something to do with its potent activity?
