Understanding the Unreliable Narrator

It was odd how everyone seemed to agree on one thing about the old house: it was haunted. I, however, knew better. I had been inside that house, and I was certain there was nothing supernatural about it. Only shadows, creaky floors, and the wind playing tricks on my mind. Yet, as I told my friends, I saw nothing unusual. Sometimes, I wondered if I was losing my grip on reality or simply trying to hide the truth from myself.
