THE SEASONAL DEMON

Ever since I had moved to this house a year ago i had felt uneasy ,cold and as if there was always someone watching me ...The dog used to sit on the stairs and bark at this one corner ,the light would flicker and books would be knocked off the shelf ,I didn't like it all.

I woke up for school feeling very tired ,I had slept much the night before as I was creeped out.at about 12 am I had heard the tap running downstairs but,everyone was in bed ,it was strange .

I had tried to forget about it and just fall asleep but my mind was set on what was going on downstairs.I thought that maybe it was just next door running the tap in their bathroom .as we quite often heard it ,but it was much louder ,I then thought that maybe the tap had been left on by whoever was last upstairs ,then I remembered that i was the last person upstairs,yet again I tried to ignore it but I couldn't .

I rolled around to grab my phone ,quickly checking to see what time it was .it was 12:26 and now the 25th of November ,my mums birthday .I checked my notifications and switched on my torch as i stumbled out of bed .I feel over my school back falling to the ground with a loud bang ,luckily i didn't wake anyone up .After i had picked myself up I opened up my wardrobe taking out a fluffy jumper and my slipper socks ,i slipped them on and walked into the hall ,i saw a faint light beaming through the banister ,making me anxious in case there was someone in my house as they would know that someone was awake and walking about .As i passed my cat who was lying on the washing basket i saw that her eyes were wide open and she looked startled ,it bothered me that she wasn't lying with her young kittens ,she never left them alone ...I picked her up and cuddled her for a couple of minutes,she started purring and seemed much calmer ,i kept a hold of her and headed towards the stairs ,i turned of my torch and placed my foot on the first step very gently ,to make sure the wood panels didn't creak ,as i put my other foot on the step my cat freaked out and leaped off of my shoulder ,this wasn't like her at all. I slowly made my way down the rest of the stairs making my steps lighter each time ,missing out the steps that i knew were bound to make a noise .As i approached the last step i noticed that the kitchen door was open , the light was on and that the sink was over flowing .I stepped off the stair and walked into the kitchen to clean up all the water.

I turned off the tap and wiped up the water. I began to fix myself a drink ,I turned the tap back on now that the water in the sink had drained a little,i twisted the tap and nothing ,no water came out it was dry ,everything was going wrong ,what was happening and why ?

I looked through opening that was built into the wall ,looking to see if kittens were awake .The dog was asleep on the couch and i couldn't see any small little fluff balls roaming around on the carpet ,nor could i see Tabitha our other cat sleeping in the living room .I got out the cat treats and shook them to get the older 2 cats attention ,neither of them came running ,how strange they usually went mad for these treats .I climbed over the opening into the living room as the kitchen floor was still wet and i didn't really want to get my socks wet .All nine kittens were snuggling into each other sleeping, behind the sofa .I was quite ,as to not wake them up .

i walked back into the hall when i heard a really loud roar ,i quickly ran back into the living room,all the kittens were meowing and and the dog was sat up looking terrified,the clothing rack flung across room ,knocking of all the damp clothes off,then my wooden box of paints fell down and they were all over the floor ,i freaked out .

i placed all the kittens in to their basket and moved out in to the hall as fast i could,the light on the middle landing was flickering ,and the rats were awake and looking excited ,i heard the kitchen door slam shut and i ran up the stairs i turned on all the lights waking up my sister ,she seemed very confused and took the basket of kittens of me ,i ran into my room and lay on my bed with the covers over my head .

since that night i haven't experienced anything else like this ,small things have happened ,like lights turning on ,keys falling of the hook and pictures falling off the walls .The dog has stopped barking at that one corner and the landing light has stopped flickering ,no one else in my family has really experienced anything ,but I am positive that there is a presence in hour house and its attached to me as its only ever my photos that fall of the wall ...
