I used to work in a daycare. When I first started there, the teachers in the classroom I was training in [the main 3&4's room] told me that she saw a huge black mass that was wide enough to fill the entire doorway in the upstairs classroom. She told me that at one time she was standing next to a row of cubbies and the thing went right through her.
They also told me that the trash cans they had at the time [the lids snapped on, the kids couldn't get the lids off even if they tried] the lids flew off and across the room. At the time no one was by the trash cans and everyone was at the table eating.
Water turned on by itself when no one was by the sinks and at nap time they could hear footsteps walking around the floor where the children slept. At nap they turned a cd on and at the end the room was silent. Music didn't play the whole nap time.
My experiences there were as follows, In the upstairs 3&4's room [main building], during nap as I was doing lesson plans I heard whispering in the bathroom, I checked and it was empty. I couldn't make out what was being said, but I could tell it was whispering as the bathroom was really quiet once I stepped inside.
I heard my name said.. it was low enough felt like the person was standing right next to me leaning over and whispering in my ear. Right after that as I was washing the table I saw a black shadow move from one side of the doorway to the other. I went into the hall to talk to my boss only to find out she wasn't in her office or the copy room. From the direction the shadow was moving it went from the copy room into the office.
A child I had at the time[David] was laying on his mat, all of the other kids in the room were asleep, he came to me and said someone was kicking his mat. No one else was awake but he and I, so I told who ever it was to please stop kicking the mat and that when the kids woke up they would be more than glad to play with him/her. David laid down and told me the kicking stopped and he fell asleep.
A few days before 9/11 the ceiling was being redone so I had the 4's down in the school age room. Nap had just ended and I turned the cd player completely off and set about getting the kids up and moving. The cd player turned itself back on. Myself and all of the kids were at the opposite end of the classroom putting blnkets and mats away. On 9/11 during nap there was constant walking around upstairs. It was so loud that I thought the kids were going to wake up. I asked the asst. director to have the guys
