twelve o'clock
I hearn some more noise , and I felt so strange like , that I shut de door to , and went to bed . Well , I seed dat , and heard it for two or three nights . I was gettin scared I tell you ; for , Phillis , there 's somethin awful in thinkin of people walking out of their graves , and ca n't get rest even thar . I could n't help comin , every night , out here , ` bout twelve o'clock , for that 's time sperrits , I mean ghosts , is so uneasy . One night , de very night Miss Alice got better , I hearn de screech an de fuss , and I seed de curtain go up , and pretty soon what do you think I saw . I 'm tellin ' you no lie , Phillis . I seed two great , red eyes , a glarin out de winder ; a glarin right at me .
