Shadow
Honestly, there is nothing to see in this town. At least, not anything scary or even mildly unsettling.
You clean your teeth and change to sleep as usual, and go to bed with the disappointment still heavy in your heart. You are so upset about missing Halloween that you remain awake for a while.
Despite that, in the total darkness you are unable to see the shadow that comes to sit behind the bed as it has done every night. A little further, another silhouette tries to open the thick, dark curtains that cover the double window.
You have no way to know about the despair and frustration of the second one, but something on the other presence soothes you, even if you don't know it's there. You finally fall sleep, as the shadows lurk in their house while they can.
Before you wake up with the sound of your alarm, they will have to hide under the shadow of objects and walls, that's the only way to avoid the threats hiding in the daylight.
The End.
