Scary story

I lay staring at the ceiling in my practically dark bedroom. The only light in the room is from my alarm clock reading 2:59 am. I turn on my side facing the clock and I watch as it turns to three. As soon as the clock reads 3:00 am, it shuts off as if it was unplugged. I reach out to touch it and my hand makes contact with it. I quickly pull my hand back with a burning sensation shooting throughout my hand. I blow on my hand trying to make the pain cease. I hear my closet doors slowly creak open. I look in the direction of the closet but it’s useless because of the thick darkness that fills the room. I reach over and turn on my lamp. I see a hand with bony fingers on both of the doors, pushing them apart. My eyes widen as I feel my body filling with fear. The light in the lamp shatters making me flinch but not take my eyes off the closet that I now isn’t visible. I hear them begin to creak open again and my breathing rapidly increases with each second the creaking echos through my room. After what felt like an eternity, the creaking stopped. But the creaking was followed by a much worse sound. The creature let out a wail that shook my whole body . I hear footsteps walking to the end of my bed. I scream as i feel

the thing’s hand grab my foot and slowly pull me towards the end of the bed. The clock and the lamp turn back on and the clock says its 4:00 am. I look at the foot of my bed and there is nothing. I stare in shock to see my closet doors were closed. I crawl back up to the headboard and and keep the lamp on as I wait for the sun to rise because I don’t trust the darkness anymore.
