Want to know how to safely sneak out of the house? This article describes the surefire tips to leave the house secretly without being caught. First of all, make a plan by determining the route to be taken and preparing an excuse if someone sees you. Before leaving, wait until the whole house is asleep, then walk sneakily on tiptoe. To ensure you manage to sneak out of the house safely, don't make the slightest sound when walking, opening, and closing doors or windows.
Step
Method 1 of 3: Preparing the Necessary Things
Step 1. Determine the safest route a few days in advance
Take time to figure out the risky route from the bedroom to the door or window. Keep in mind the location of objects that creak or creak when stepped on or passed so that they can be avoided when you sneak out of the house.
- For example, if you hear a creaking sound when you step on one of the steps, don't step on it when you walk down the stairs while sneaking.
- Another example, if the door of the house or bedroom door creaks, grease the door hinges with a lubricant, such as grease (for auto parts), engine oil, or olive oil.
Step 2. Hide a change of clothes on the terrace or near the door of the house
If conditions do not allow to change clothes on the terrace, hide the change of clothes as close as possible to the door of the house, for example behind a closet or under a sofa. It's best not to wear clothes to travel when you want to leave the house.
When walking to the door, put on your pajamas just in case someone sees you
Step 3. Prepare yourself by putting the required equipment in a backpack or bag
In addition to a change of clothes, don't forget to bring your wallet, house keys, and cell phone. Put everything you want to carry in a backpack or bag so you don't have to rush to collect them one by one when it's time to leave the house.
You can go unnoticed if all the things you want to carry are already in your backpack or bag
Step 4. Prepare excuses in case anyone sees
Set up scenarios in case plans don't go well. If you meet someone in your household, give them a reason not to suspect why you haven't slept.
For example, tell him that you want to get a drink in the kitchen, but hear a noise in the living room and want to check on it
Step 5. Watch out for alarms on doors or windows
Many homeowners install alarms on doors and windows to keep them awake if an intruder wants to enter the house (or leave the house as you plan). If your parents set the house alarm on before bed, find out how to turn it off or take a different route.
Step 6. Make sure you can get into the house when you get home
If you want to go through the window, make sure you can get back into the house through the window when you get home. If you go through the door, have a spare key ready to open the door when you return home.
Place a spare key under a doormat or flower pot if needed
Method 2 of 3: Executing the Plan
Step 1. Put on the pajamas
In order for the plan to run smoothly, do not change clothes in the house in case someone sees it. He doesn't suspect that you're still in your pajamas. In addition, you can give a reasonable reason.
If you usually wear loose pajamas to bed at night, wear travel clothes under your pajamas so you don't have to change
Step 2. Do your usual bedtime activities as if you wanted to sleep at night
Say goodnight to family members before entering the room, then close the door a little loudly to make it sound. Then, play a song or turn on the television so your parents think you're busy and aren't looking for you in your room.
If you always play a song at bedtime, do this as usual before leaving
Step 3. Wait until everyone in the house seems to have fallen asleep
You have to be patient to wait until the whole house can be sure is asleep. If your parents fall asleep quickly, you don't have to worry. If they usually sleep late at night, try listening to their breathing or snoring to make sure you don't get caught.
If you have to wait a bit longer, turn on your phone's alarm so you don't fall asleep
Step 4. Place a head pillow under the blanket as if you were fast asleep
This step aims to anticipate the possibility of your parents looking for you in your room while you are away. Arrange some pillows according to your body shape and cover them with a blanket so that it looks like you are sleeping soundly.
If needed, place a wig that looks like your hair on a head pillow so people who see it think you're fast asleep
Step 5. Walk on tiptoe to the door of the house
Step slowly as you walk through the room in the house or down the stairs to the door. Don't be in a hurry and try to walk as quietly as possible so that no one wakes up.
If you want to go through the window, make sure there is no sound when you open the window and leave the house
Step 6. Change clothes as soon as you reach the door or in front of the house
Take the clothes that have been hidden and wear them quietly. You should change clothes outside the house so that you don't get caught because you are already well dressed, but if you have to, you can change clothes near the door.
Hide your pajamas or put them in your bag so you can change when you get home
Step 7. Close the door or window, but make sure you can log in again
When opening and closing doors or windows, do it slowly because this step often makes a sound. Bring a spare key after locking the door so you can get into the house when you get home.
- Put the keys in your pocket or bag. If you want to hide it, place the key under a doormat or flower pot on the patio.
- If your parents lock the door every night, don't forget to lock the door when you get home.
Method 3 of 3: Keeping the Silence
Step 1. Try to walk on the carpet
Don't step on the wood to prevent it from creaking if you can walk on a carpet or foot mat. Soft fabrics or materials don't creak and can muffle the sound of footprints so no one will know when you're gone.
- Step slowly when walking so as not to make noise.
- Wear socks if you need to step on stairs or wooden floors.
Step 2. Stay alert so you know when someone is coming
When you want to leave, focus on the sounds around you. That way, you can hear if someone moves or walks closer.
Step 3. Open the door slowly so it doesn't make a sound
Take time to practice by following the plan that has been drawn up to find out which doors are creaking or creaking. To keep it from beeping, turn the doorknob, open the door, then slowly close it again.
If you leave the house through the window, don't push the window too hard so it doesn't make a sound
Step 4. Place your feet on the edge of the wooden steps so they don't rattle
The center of the wooden steps is usually the easiest to creak. Keep your feet as close to the edge of the stairs as possible when walking down on tiptoe.
- Use the banister to lean on so the footprints don't sound.
- The edge of the steps is the most solid part so it doesn't creak or creak.
Step 5. Put on your shoes as soon as you get outside
In addition to saving time, you don't have to sit in a dark place to tie your shoelaces or walk sneakily in high heels to the door. Wear shoes if you are outside and no one is looking.
Put your shoes in your bag so you don't bother carrying them when you sneak out of the house
Step 6. Make sure the key is ready to use to open and lock the door
If the door must be opened and closed using a key, separate the key so you are not confused looking for it. In addition to saving time, this step prevents the tinkling sound that keeps people in the house awake.
Make sure you have the key in your hand when you get home
