Creepy HALLOWEEN! Part 2
It was Halloween night. It was very windy and cold, so me and my sisters decide to return back home from trick or treating early that day. When we returned back home the time was 10.45 p.m. Me and my sisters planned to have a movie night. They said they'd change into their pyjamas and come down. I was too lazy to change my costume so I sat on the couch and waited for them.
As the movie began, me and my sisters started watching the movie. But after an hour I realised that I had been dozing off throughout the movie. I looked at the clock, it was 00:00! The entire living room was dark, the T.V was switched off and my sisters weren't there beside me. I shrugged it off thinking that the movie was finished and they had gone to bed. Because I was feeling very hungry, I thought of grabbing a midnight snack. I realised that the wind had stopped blowing all out of sudden! It seemed a very unusual night. A night that had completely sunken in darkness and silence.
I went to the kitchen and started digging the pantry cupboard for chips and took a glimpse at the window. From what I saw, my body became cold, suddenly my heart started beating so fast and I was dripping in sweat! I couldn't believe my eyes! The thing that I shouldn't see was there under a street light. It was in the form of a skeleton wearing a long black hooded cloak and carrying a scythe. I couldn't say whether that thing noticed me but all I can say it looked extremely sinister!
At that time I didn't have an idea of what that thing is but as soon as I came back to my senses I ran back to my bedroom, cuddled with my blanket and dozed off.
As soon as I woke up, I didn't utter a word about this incident to my family. I knew they would laugh it off and wouldnt believe me especially as a kid, they'd tell me that I'm making it up so I prefered to stay silent. As days passed, I forgot about the incident till it hit me in my twenties which I wished it hadn't! One day, when I was studying Greek and roman mythology, I came across a picture of a grim reaper.
When I started reading, it said a grim reaper is a skeletal figure, who is often shrouded in a dark, hooded robe and carrying a scythe to "reap" human souls. Suddenly it hit me! The grim reaper was the thing that I saw when I was a 11 year old! I was paralysed with fear. I kept on reading, it said that The Grim Reaper seems to have appeared in Europe during the 14th century. It was during this time that Europe was dealing with what was then the world's worst pandemic, the Black Death.
And lastly it said if you had seen the grim reaper either it's your time to face death or if you're alive even after you've seen it, you've been selected as a reaper. I was shaken at this! I had a lot questions going in mind! Was It the Grim Reaper that I saw that day? Why didn't I die? But the spine chilling question that came into my mind is...
If I'm alive to narrate this incident to you, is it because I'm selected as one of them!??
