I'm home alone on valentine's day. My parents are out eating and my brother is at a friends house. So it just turned dark and I'm watching tv in the living room.
I then hear a loud banging noise from around the back door, and the dogs start barking, at first I briefly take note of it and think nothing of it. It happens again, and then, a third time. At this point I am extremely unnerved. I go to my room to retrieve my shotgun, knife and flashlight.
While loading my shotgun I hear it again. I then go and let the dogs out and I go around back with them to investigate.
The wind had caught the screen door and was slamming it against the wind. But at that point the thought enters my head that someone entered from the back door while I was in the front.
I proceed to go in the front door and do a room-by-room clearing of the house, nothing.
My question is did I do the right thing or am I paranoid?
