Have
you ever woken up in the dead of night for no reason at all? You might have just lain back down and fell
right to sleep again, telling yourself that maybe the air vents came on waking you up. That’s one reason. Some people think when you’re awake at night;
it is because you’re awake in someone else’s dream. The unspoken truth is that you may be being
watch by someone… or something.
You
never know what is lurking by your window, hiding under your bed, or peering
from a dark corner.
What
you are about to read is based on true events.
I
woke up at precisely 2:48 according to the digital clock on my bedside
table, casting only a small amount of light. My room was abnormally cold so I picked
up the extra blankets from the foot of my bed and spread them over myself. As I lay in my bed I found it hard to get
back to sleep. I tossed and turned
trying to get comfortable, but my eyes would not stay closed. I flipped onto my back and stared at the
ceiling for a few minutes seeing shapes in the darkness.
I imagined sleeping cats, and running
horses. The shapes started to shift into
things like snakes, skeletons, and monsters.
I quickly shut my eyes so I could stop scaring myself. It was then I decided I could not get to
sleep and sat up in my bed and looked straight ahead, and at the foot of my bed
was a man. I couldn’t see his face; he
was dressed all in black and was facing right at me. I sat there paralyzed in my bed, we stared at
each other for a moment, when he walked closer to me and quietly whispered “goodnight,”
and slowly walked out of my room. I must
have sat still in my bed too scared to move until I fell asleep because the
next thing I knew it was morning and the shadow man was gone.Some times when I wake up in the middle of the night I still see shadows move, hear soft voices calling my name, and feel eyes on my back. Although it has been many years since I have seen Shadow Man, I still know he is there, always watching.
