In the shadows are many different things. Some are cute and funny, others horrid.
But in the night when many people are sleeping, something is always watching, waiting. Waiting to see if you wake, so it can strike it's unknowing prey. Have you ever been walking outside at night and feel the presence of someone watching you, but when you turn around no one is there? You tell yourself it's your imagination playing tricks on you, but then you hear the crunch of or something stepping on a dead leaf behind you. You turn quickly around to see if you can catch whatever it is behind you, but nothing is there? You look around, but nothing is there, and when you turn to go on your way you feel it right behind you. You can almost feel its breath on the back of your neck, then the hair on the back of your neck raises. You can tell it's right behind you.
Some might call out asking 'Who's there' , but what's the point? If something really was following you they wouldn't tell you. Others might ignore the feeling and be on their way. Others might know something is there but they want to get to their house and curl up under the covers in their bed, hiding from whatever was following them, paranoid that their imagination would take control and make their worst fear pop out and attack them. Others might be as lucky and have someone following them and have it end up as it being someone they know trying to scare them. Who knows for sure what is out there in the shadows of the night?
Welcome to the world of darkness,.... my world.
