My family had the computer in the living room but due to remodeling, we moved the computer to the back of the house. We have a room, it's called the family room, and it faces the backyard. One night, I was on the computer doing my homework. It was around 11 to 12 midnight because those are the hours I always do my homework. I was typing up an essay when I heard something. It sounded like a Native American song. If anyone has even seen those history videos they show at school where they show Native Americans singing in their language, that is exactly what I heard. I was so surprised that I stopped typing and just sat there on my computer chair listening. It was so loud and clear. I was right next to the sliding door which leads to the backyard. I got up and went into my parents room to see if it was their television or radio. It wasn't. It was coming from my backyard and it was so loud and clear that I felt that they or whoever it was, where right outside the sliding doors. The sliding doors had a curtain but I was too afraid to peek outside. I just turned off the computer and went straight to my room.
The next day, I performed a little experiment. I told my mom to go outside and into the middle of the yard. I told her to talk as loudly as she could (my mom has a very loud voice). I went inside and closed the sliding door. I did not hear a thing. I told my mom to get closer, and each time I could hear more clearly. It couldn't have been the neighbors because all of our yards are huge, so I wouldn't have been able to hear them. Also, my neighbors are all elderly people who don't make any noise at all. To this day, I believe that it was the ghosts of Native Americans I heard because that is what it sounded like but I could be wrong. What do you think?

Welcome to YGS. I thought since I had noticed you are reading some of the older experiences, that I should help you out with this. Most people get here and the first thing we do is look for stories from where we live or grew up and ones that match up to any experiences we have had ourselves. We all do this and in commenting on those we have a sense of commonality which is welcomed here at YGS. It adds to the story itself and future readers will appreciate that.
The only time commenting on older experiences ever becomes a problem is when it's obvious the poster doing the commenting is only doing so in an attempt to either re-light old flame wars and/or start new ones. Trolls use the tactic of pointing out old conflicts as their way of getting revenge.
What your comments have done is add to the original experience, and that's a good thing. No need to apologize for it.
And, by the way, thank you for sharing those. 😊
