Footsteps

Dad told me this story several times. I can never get enough of hearing it though. It's so creepy to me. I've heard things in that house too, but maybe I was just losing my mind.
One Sunday morning, my papaw needed to go to the basement of his house for one reason or another. Sam, my dad's dog, followed him down. According to dad, the part Bassett, part Beagle, followed papaw everywhere. That day was no different.
Once in the basement, papaw heard footsteps that lead from the back of the house, down the hall toward the front. Sam heard them too. Papaw noticed that he followed the sound as it passed over. Thinking that mamaw had come home from church early, there was no cause for concern. However, when he and Sam went back up to the house, mamaw had not returned from church and the house was empty.
