The Entity
Mirrors! I cower in fear at the very sight of them. Why you ask! Why would a teenage girl be scared of mirrors? It's funny because I wasn't always like that. It all started one night, it was very late at night and I had to get up for school in the morning but I couldn't sleep. Tossing and turning I tried my best to fall asleep but to not avail. It's weird because I've had nights were I couldn't sleep but not like this. After a couple failed attempts, I grabbed my phone and start browsing through my Instagram. I start to get an unusual feeling and as I look up at my wall mirror, I see a figure standing in my doorway. I thought it was my mom so I called out to her... but no answer. I look back into my doorway but there was nothing. I turned my head back to my mirror and the figure was still standing in my doorway. I glance back and forth, seeing the figure in the mirror but watching it disappear as I look at my doorway again. I sink back into my covers still watching the figure through the mirror. After that, the worst thing happened to me. The figure starts slowly creeping towards my bed. The terror I felt was unbearable, my whole body was trembling uncontrollably. The figure crossed paths with the moonlight shining through my window and I caught a glimpse of its features. But I wish I hadn't. This figure looked like me but it wasn't me. Its skin was a pale and grey, its body looked all mangled. Its eyes were pitch black and tiny. What really freaked me was that disturbing, menacing smile on its face. It looked painful as it was smiling from cheek to cheek. In its mouth were a ton of razor sharp teeth! Almost too many to fit in its mouth! I pulled the covers over my head in total fear. Am I going to die? I kept asking myself. I just closed my eyes and hope this thing would go away.
