The Clown In My Cupboard!
One night, my parents had to leave me alone because they had to work for the night shift at Mc Donalds. I was a 10-year old girl and my sister was a 5 year old. It was my first time to stay alone and I was very nervous. But I quickly let it slide away once I thought how much fun it could be. My parents said they'd be around at 6.00 A.M in the morning. After, my parents left, me and my sister played video games, watched netflix and ate snacks. It was nearly 9.00 P.M. It was my sister's bedtime. I led her to her bedroom and tucked her in the blankets. As soon as she was asleep, I went downstairs and continued watching Netflix. I started feeling drowsy so I looked up at the clock. It was 12.30 A.M.
I decided not to stay up so late and I got up from the sofa. That is when, I saw my sister running towards me. "Why Madonna? I thought you were askeep. Why didn't you sleep?" I asked her. "I can't. There's a clown peeping out from the closet. He's telling me to play with him." She said. "Nonsense Madonna! Now, if you don't go to bed, I will complain to Dad." "If you don't believe me, I'll show you." And Madonna took hold of my hand and led me to the bedroom. I switched on the lights. "Madonna, there's nothing in here. You must've been dreaming. Go back to sleep." I said but she was so stubborn and refused. "Open the closet." she said.
I went towards the closet and opened the door, indeed to my horror, there was a clown sitting inside the closet. He had a wide grin which sent me a shiver through my spine. He had a knife on his hand and those evil eyes kept staring at me. He stood up and he stepped out of the closet, slowly walking towards to us. "Kids, Do you wanna play? If you say "No" you would make Mr Clown angry." I started panicking but a baseball bat caught my attention. I yelled "What do you want?" Then he ran towards me but I was ready for the attack, I gave a heavy blow on his head. He passed out to the floor. Soon, I grabbed my sister's hand and ran out of the house. The rest of the night was spent in my aunt's home two blocks away. She informed the police and the police arrived within less than ten minutes. But however the clown had escaped. We moved out and now I am attending middle school. But whenever I pass that place, to this day whenever I think about that experience, it sends me a shiver down my spine.
