Cat Stares at Oven, Cop Can't Believe What's Inside

Old houses come with their own quirks, bringing some unexpected occurrences to the families shifting in. Yet, the charm and elegance of living in a grand structure are usually enough to compensate for little things like a few leaky pipes. It's all part of the package and experience when you dwell in such a unique abode. When the Baxter family packed up and settled into their old family estate, they understood that a period of adjustment was inevitable. However, what they didn't anticipate was the wave of inexplicable events that were about to cast a shadow over the allure of their new abode, spinning their everyday lives into an unexpected whirlwind of mystery.

For nearly 20 years, Andrew and Olivia Baxter have been bound by the joyous ties of marriage. Their delightful family includes their 14-year-old little girl, Maisie, and their pet cat, affectionately named Benji. Their residence for the majority of their marriage, a span of 15 years, has been England. However, it has been decided that now is the time for Andrew to journey back to the place of his birth, Charlotte, North Carolina.

They landed in their new residence in Charlotte during the cool but sunny January. Having come all the way from their previous home across the sea in England, they now welcomed the task of unwrapping and settling in with all the items they transported from the English home turf.

While getting to know their new dwelling, the Baxters were taken aback to see that much of Evangeline's belongings were left untouched, even the old, wood-burning range was still there. Andrew recalled the lavish, scrumptious meals she used to prepare in that enormous oven, and it almost felt as if the delightful aroma of her previous cooking was still lingering in the air.

In the initial days after moving into her new home, Maisie found drifting off to sleep in her new upstairs room nearly impossible. The house was hardly quiet, with the sounds of creaking, rustling, and thumping echoing through the halls. More chillingly, on occasion, she thought she even heard the eerie sound of low growling resonating from somewhere within the house.
