They told me that soon I would get better,but I never did. They gave me all kinds of fancy white pills to swallow,but they didn`t help.They did all kinds of fancy diagnosis.Paranio,Obsessive-compulsive disorder,schizophrenia,but they were all lies.

I knew the real reason why I had to go to all those doctors.I knew the real reason why I couldn`t sleep at night,why my hands never stopped shaking.And the real casue of all the other symptoms that the doctors fussed over.Just the name gives me the shivers

The Lurking man.

I can feel his evil prescence every day,following me everywhere I go,but always out of sight,waiting for the perfect moment to strike.He knows all my secrets and all my fears,and he uses them agaisnt me.He`s always there,watching me like a shadow.

When my boss fired me for "Odd and disturbing behavior,I knew right away that the Lurking man was controlling him like a puppet.And when that Blue Chevy went speeding down the street at 75 mph,nearly killing me and destroying my car.I knew that the Lurking Man was behind it.

All the doctors tried to cinvince me that he wasn`t real.That he was just part of a symptom of one of my ongoing list of disorders.But the lurking man is real.Becuase if he wan`t then that would mean I`m crazy.And I`m not crazy.

Right?

The Lurking man ruined my life.Even my own wife left me.Mr made my sickness worse.My hands shake harder,and I sleep less.

I decided that this was enough.That I wouldn`t let him control my life anymore.But there was only one way too break free from the chains that he has wrapped around me,only one was I could be free from this monster forever.

I had to kill the Lurking Man.
