The House Of Eyes

A Nightmare?

By Mike Singleton πŸ’œ Mikeydred Published 9 months ago β€’ 1 min read
A Nightcafe Creation By The Author

The rain is pouring and there is thunder and lightning, I don't think I a going to get any sleep and then the lights went out in the street, power cut probably.

I don't like the dark.

I pick up my phone, and it is dead, so I can't use it as a torch.

I try to sleep, but the noise and fear are keeping me awake.

If I could sleep, I would be fine, but then I start thinking, "Am I asleep, and is this a nightmare?"

I start hearing noises, they sound wet. Have I got a leak? Is the rain coming in through the window or the ceiling? Then a light appears on the wall, or I think it's a light.

It's not a light.

It's an eye.

Then another eye, they keep opening on all the walls, the floor and the ceiling of my room, and there are mouths with horribly deformed teeth, bleeding and masticating.

What is happening?

If I want to leave, I will have to step on that floor of boody mouths and eyes in my bare feet.

This is a nightmare.

It can't be real, it is everything that scares and disgusts me.

I want to wake up, I want things to be normal, but I am still here.

The eyes and mouths are now opening on my bedsheets and bedhead, and I want to run, but I cannot move.

Now, eyes and mouths are appearing on my arms, I am becoming my own nightmare.

I want to wake before I am transformed into a monster of mouths and eyes in this House of Eyes.

I am awake in this nightmare.

Is it real?

It feels real.

I feel eyes on my cheeks and tongue.

If I do not wake soon, I know that I will die......

    Sounds fascinating to me. If I should awake from such a dream, I would probably try to go back to sleep as quickly as possible to find out what happens next, lol.
