You wake up in the middle of the night. You keep your eyes closed, not wanting to wake up fully. Suddenly, you hear a creak on the floorboard next to your bed.

"Hello. You left your door open. Thank you for letting me in. I've been waiting." The thing whispers in your ear, his cold breath tickling your cheek.

"Y'know.. I've been so lonely nowadays. No one to talk to. To speak face to face with." He says slowly. "I know you're awake."
