Happened when I was kid, mid teens. I was playing Diablo at night, and remember being kinda on edge, since I wasn't supposed to - so I was keeping an eye and an ear on the house.
So, I'm slaying it in Baal Runs, and see something move across the doorway of the study, and just feel caught. It must have been mom, and I'm caught - since it was this average-height white figure, wearing a night gown. And no-one else is at home.
I leave the room and look left to moms bedroom and hear her snoring. There's no-one up inside the house, and no-one has crossed the doorway back into my mums bedroom.
This wasn't the only weird, spooky thing to have happened in that house, but it is the only one where I was strictly awake.
