Once upon a time I read that all evil spirits feed on human fear. And if he doesn't feel it, then he lags behind the person. After a long history that happened to me, I advise you never to intimidate young children with witches or devil. You look, and fearlessness will help them at the right moment.
In 1973, I was 20 years old, I worked in the regional financial department as an inspector of state revenues. It so happened that one winter I had to go on a business trip to the village of Ozerki, Taborinsky district, Sverdlovsk region.
This village council was not part of my site, but circumstances developed in such a way that it was me who had to go. The bus did not go there, so they took me to the village in a Raifo car, and back I had to look for a ride.
In the village council I worked all day with receipts and was in a hurry to finish everything in one day, as I learned that in the morning a car would go from the village to the regional center.
I did not have time to complete the check in a day, so I decided to spend the night at the village council. Council workers persuaded me to go to their house for the night. They said that it was dangerous to stay indoors at night, that it was a bad place.
- Here's more news! I laughed. - I'll close on the hook and won't let anyone in, why be afraid?
Everyone left, and I plunged headlong into checking the receipts. Almost at midnight I finished everything, drew up the act, in the morning the chairman and secretary of the council will sign it - and you can go home. She locked the door on a large thick hook and lay down on the sofa in the secretary's office.

The entire village council - an entrance hall and two offices. Before I had time to close my eyes, settling under my coat, I suddenly heard footsteps on the stairs. Someone comes up to me. I must say that the village council was located in a former church. The building is two-story, on the ground floor they made a club, and at the top of the village council, a staircase led directly from the street to it.
I heard the creak of steps, voices, then began to knock on the door. I thought: who did this difficult thing bring at night? She got up, went out into the hallway, went to the door - silence. She turned off the light again and lay down on the sofa. And then there was a banging on the door, I even jumped.
I run to the door, shout:
- Who's there?
They are silent. And again it is quiet outside the door.
Just in case, she removed the documents from the table in the safe, put a bunch of keys under her head. She lay down - knock again. I got angry, put on my coat, opened the door to the street, and it’s empty. Who knocked? What nonsense? I think: maybe this movie is in the club? She went down, went to the door - there was a lock on the club. And what a movie at one in the morning!
I don't understand anything at all! Maybe I think the boys are fooling around, scaring me. I looked around - and the area around the former church was all clean, evenly covered with snow, not a single trace.
She returned, turned off the light everywhere, lay down. I remembered: they told me that the place was not good. And suddenly I hear the front door slamming, people coming in, talking loudly, stamping their feet, shaking off the snow from their shoes.
I heard that they entered the chairman's office, they knocked on the door. I thought: will they get to the safe? I jumped, flew into the hallway, flicked the switch, and the hallway was empty. Not a soul.
I, being a non-rude girl, allowed myself only one curse, but I said it loudly, clearly and with all my heart! And she went to sleep completely and irrevocably. Of course, they immediately entered, flooded, but I took it absolutely calmly.
As I fell asleep, I felt someone walk past me, a wave of cold washed over me, even as if it touched me with something.
- Yes ugh on you! - I muttered and fell asleep.
I slept peacefully until the very morning, however, early in the morning again someone knocked and shouted, but I did not react. By nine o'clock in the morning, the workers of the village council came, with them a cleaner, she is a stoker. The cleaning lady immediately to me:
- Why didn't she open, why didn't she let her in? I had to heat the stoves! How will people work in the cold now?
I told how the devils would not let me sleep all night, and in the morning I thought it was them again. Everyone was surprised:
- How did you not die of fear?
And I explained: apparently, because in childhood I was not intimidated by any devilry. But I still cannot explain what happened in the village council that night.
