(TRIGGER WARNING, HORROR AND SUICIDE READ AT YOUR OWN RISK)
KNOCK
KNOCK
KNOCK.....
The continuous knocking echos throughout the night. It only happens for a couple of minutes but those minutes feel like hours.
It's like a ringing in your head, thumping so loudly against your skull. A ringing that wont subside. This would send anyone mad.
I've tried to stop this knocking from the attic, but I never can because whatever lurks in the shadows doesn't want me up there.
It's an invisible force that I can't see, that causes me this madness. So every night I lie awake unable to sleep. And I listen to the knocking. The loud thumping that won't ever subside. I listen so very closely, and everytime I get the courage to go and confront the invisible force, i can't.
I lie awake in bed, staring at the ceiling listening to that same knocking again like every other night. I call out, to the unknown force.
"Can you please stop?" I yelled, becoming slightly irritated. The thumping abruptly stopped. Tonight's the night, i finally had the courage.
I smiled, so very brightly probably looking like a madman. Finally, I thought. I can sleep.
Unfortunately my thoughts were short lived as the thumping resumed, getting louder and faster. Its driving me insane.
Eventually. I got out of bed. I let down the attic ladder. And decided to go up there.
Next thing I did, was something I knew would completely end that awful knocking, a way to sleep forever.
I grabbed the rope, and tied it around my neck, eventually tying it around the banister and hung myself.
My body swinging back and forth, making that same sickening knocking noise as it hit against the wall.
