Childhood Fear

I havent seen something like this in quite awhile. When I was a kid I always got paranoid about someone being behind me. I would scream if anyone snuck up on me and at some points I would cry. I never remembered why.

I had just finished playing the new expansion pack for skyrim, I fricken loved playing, so much so that I played until well a few minutes ago. And its 12:50 in the morning. Yes I have school in the morning, but I really wanted to finish it tonight.

After I was done, I went to the kitchen looking for something to drink. Well I didnt find much, I walked around there for a few minutes then went to the bathroom. I brushed my teeth and walked out calmly. And then it happened.

I caught a glimps of something in the bathroom and I saw a face, a white face, a wrinkled white face, Dulled out eyes and clothes that were ripped. It glared at me as I screamed running into my room and shutting the door as quickly as I could.

I locked the door and I began to cry. And I still dont know why..... That man, or thing, I always thought I was just paranoid but I see now that this thing. Is in my house. I dont know what to do. I feel like Im just crazy, I've been too stressed out lately thats it. I told myself as I heared feet stomp move accross my hall ways.

I needed to talk to someone anyone. I turned on my phone and texted my friend Justin. "I just saw something strange." I told him. "Okay," He said. I was slightly annoyed he didnt react. "Justin I think Im crazy." "Arent we all." He said. I sighed and said nevermind.

I was about to put my phone away and then he told me how crazy he is. " I AM certifiably insane. And my mom IS certified.We're all crazy in our own way." He said. "I just saw a fricken thing in my living room. I dont think Im well... Either that or my house is being robbed." I wrote.

And then the thought occured to me, what if the house was being robbed. I thought to go look part of me was screaming dont! The other part wanted to prove to me that it was all in my mind. I walked through the hall way and into the kitchen, and then I saw him just staring at me from the corner of my eye. I looked where I thought I saw him. Nothing.

I checked to make sure nothing was stolen and then something happened that almost proved to myself I am crazy. I thought I saw this thing from 3 different directions. I saw him behind me, then I check he wasnt there I turned around again thinking he was there and to the left and right until I ran into my room feeling like a child.

After that night I didnt see anything. But, the next day I went to visit my younger cousin. I had asked her if she wanted to come over. I had even asked her if she wanted me to drive her. She said no. She didnt exactly have the choice her being 5 but, I wasnt going to make her come. I asked her why and she said,"I saw a man looking at me while I was sleeping, it wasnt you because he was too tall." My eyes were wide open and I hugged her tightly. "When did that happen?" I screamed. She started to cry. "Last week."
