"But here's the thing: it wasn't really there."
Prompt: Shadow Freddy inspired me to practice religion.
"Hello? Uh... Hey, I just... I just called to talk about, you know, what we were talking about earlier. I guess what I mean is that, well... It wasn't just you. It happened to me too... But it was a long time ago. Back when I was working at Freddy's."
"One night I was working the nightshift when I-I thought I saw a dark figure in the monitor. It looked like… Like an old Freddy's suit. I don't think I ever told you this, but we used to have a wearable Freddy costumes. They called them Springlock Suits because they had springs and locks and all that inside of them. It's not important, trust me."
"So, uh… Okay, so… There was a Freddy one… And it was involved in a lot of things. There was an accident, someone- there were a few things that happened in that suit. Long story short, it was put away so it wouldn't be used ever again. I actually thought they destroyed it, but I don't really know. It was probably in a warehouse somewhere."
"Anyway, that night I was filling in for the night guard. It was going alright. I mean, as alright as the nightshift gets at Freddy's. You know what I mean. So, I'm checking the cameras and I come across this… I don't know, it looked like a purple Freddy almost, in one of the rooms."
"But here's the thing: it wasn't really there."
"The thing disappeared almost as soon as I saw it. It just vanished right in front of me. This dark, shadowy Freddy… And I think it looked a lot more like that old golden suit than the Freddy's we had in the restaurant. I didn't think anything of it- I mean, I was scared at the time, but, you know, you try not to think about it. Sometimes you see things that aren't there."
"…And then I started seeing it outside my windows at night. I'd wake up on my couch or something and it would be looking in through the windows at me. These big, black, empty eyes staring through the glass… And it… It got to the point that it was every night. I still don't know how it kept opening my curtains from outside."
"It got worse after my accident. After I got out of the hospital, I was stuck home a lot, and I didn't really have much help. There was a nurse that came by during the day, but I was alone at night and I couldn't really move around much on my own. And it was… It was one of those nights when I saw it in my closet. It found a way inside the house."
"The next day I called the church in town and talked to the pastor there. I, uh, I don't think he believed me. I had to ask around a lot but eventually I found a priest who came to the house and blessed it. I honestly didn't think it would work, but… I never saw Shadow Freddy again… Not at my house at least."
"So, yeah. That's what I did to get rid of it. I know you're not really a religious person, but I still have the priest's number, and if you wanted you could come with me on Sunday and meet him in person. He's really a nice guy and it's really a great place. No pressure though. I know you're not really a religious person."
"Just… Think about it… Especially since you're seeing him so close. I never saw him closer than, like, eight feet… Just… Just don't let it get too close, okay? I'll talk to you later, Mike. Take care."
