It was a cold, sleepless night. The wind seemed to howl your name. Shadows danced across your curtain as you laid in bed staring at the ceiling. Another shadow joined the others in front of your window, darker and colder than the rest. Soft red halations glowed like eyes.

Tap...Tap...Tap

Did you imagine it?

Tap...Tap....Tap

You sat up to see you hadn't imagined it... The shadow lurked outside.

You swear you can hear quiet laughter and the clicking of a crows beak.
