Would you:
a) Decide not to mention it to them and instead call the police officer who is investigating the accident?

If people behaved sensibly in stories they (the stories) would be an awful lot shorter and less interesting. You're in a creepy old house and hear noises from the cellar. Of course you're going to split up and get picked off one by one.
