A dark winter night with not a soul in sight,
Everyone fast asleep in their homes,
Safe and sound in their bed,
The clock strikes 3am
Two young girls are sleeping
A loud banging sound awakens the girl
A nine-year-old all alone
She tells herself it's her imagination
Wait!
There it is again,
Scared, she shakes her sister beside her
No response,
She pleased sister her to wake up
"Rose! Wake up!"
No response again
She realizes something is wrong
She draws back the blanket
Revealing her sister in a bloodread nightgown
The girl follows the blood dripping
Two large blood-red eyes lurking
She screams at the top of her voice
She rushes to her parents' room
"Mother! Father!"
No response
No need to check beneath the covers
She knows she is alone,
The next day a neighbour checks
The door is unlocked
A nine-year-old girl is found
Rope around the neck
Hanging from the ceiling fan
Body twitching
Out of the corner of their eyes,
Two large blood-red eyes lurk
Ever since that day,
Not a soul has entered
Those who have,
Never come out...
