Everything that i'm about to tell you is true, i swear, just because you may not believe it, doesn't mean that it's not real. the first time i saw my stalker was at my friend's house, all the lights were out and we were lying in our sleeping bags waiting for her mom to go down the hallway so that we could turn the lights back on. it was really quiet and all we could see was to night sky through the window. my friend decided that the coast was clear,so she got up to turn the light back on, but just as she reached the light switch, i saw a dark figure next to me in the darkness, it was reaching toward me. i immediatly panicked, and when my friend came back across the room, having turned the light on, it was gone.

the second time i saw this strange shadow was at my neighbour's house. it was about 9:00pm, and my mom was late picking me up. my neighbour and i decided to go upstairs to watch tv while we waited. we opened the door to the game room and stepped into the darkness, trying not to trip over the stuff on the floor as we felt the wall for the light switch. then i heard a crash over by one of the couches, and i heard my neighbour yell "im ok!" about 10 feet from where i stood. but this was no comfort to me, because i heard breathing right behind me. i turned around slowly, only to find the same shadow thing standing in front of the closed door, reaching towards me. i screamed and ran across the room. again, when the light went on, no dark figure.

about 6 months later, i was lying in bed (with my bathroom light on) and only half my room was dark. i felt very uncomfortable for some reason, so i turned over onto my right side, and it was there again, its hand stretched out in my direction, kneeling at the edge of my bed. i screamed, and when my dad came in to ask what was wrong, i was sitting bolt upright in bed, shaking from a cold sweat.

by this time, all my friends thought i was mad, they didn't believe me when i told them about my stalker. i had even started to think that, myself, until the night of my birthday party. my friends and i were playing a game that requires two people to go into seperate rooms while everyone else hid. before we could call out "ready!", my friend who had been standing in the dark hallway burst in and screamed that someone was standing on the balcony outside my room, trying to see in through the windows. sinse the hallway is also connected to the balcony, she had seen it through the big glass door. when i threw open my shutters (the ones that faced out onto the balcony) there was the dark figue, looking over the edge of the balcony. when i turned the balcony lights on (the switch is inside, right next to me window) it was gone. you can choose not to believe me, i don't really care. i just wanted to share these experiences with you. hopefully they scare you as much as they scared me.
