Well, it wasn't the light that shrieked. Not exactly.
I had to stay late to finish some paperwork, and the lights went out as i was leaving. Not so strange, but when I was going towards the stairs I kept thinking I could hear footsteps. Since its possible some of the officers were back on the floor, I just ignored it but it followed me down the stairs, no one answered when I called out.
When I got down to the landing, there's an emergency light and when I looked back up the stairs I could just make out the shape of a person. And before I could say anything, it started coming towards me, shrieking. Running away from something on stairs in the dark seemed like a bad idea, so I just pulled my gun, but the thing just vanished and then the lights came back on.
I'm okay physically, but I'm not above admitting that I'm freaked out mentally. Don't think I'll be sleeping much tonight.
