3. The Preacher at 3AM

While you're trying to sleep, he's binding demons and casting out "spirit of failure." Bro, the only spirit here is hunger.

Your bed no even scatter finish before he don arrange am. Your shoes dey line up like soldiers. You fear to enter room sometimes.

5. The Party Animal

Every weekend na club inside room. Speakers blasting, friends full ground. You just want to read... or sleep.

6. The Invisible Ghost
