I was ran around my house, shoving food down my throat and throwing things in my bag. I was running late as usual and I needed to leave right this instant or I’d get fired.

   I opened my front door and noticed that there was fresh snow on the ground, I smiled at the thought of winter when something strange caught me eye, there were footprints on the snow and they were leading up to my house. At first I just kinda sat there trying to process when I remembered…I lived alone. I haven’t been outside yet either…



   I decided I was gonna shrug it off and go to work anyways so that what I did, I shut and locked my door and headed to my car. I threw my bags down on the seat and started the engine when I saw in the corner of my eye a figure in my bedroom window. I blinked and it was gone… 



   “This is so weird” I say aloud before driving to work.



   The rest of the day was boring and long, by the end of the day I had totally forgotten about the footprints and random person and I went home like usual. 



   That night as I lay in bed I heard strange scratching noises and animal like growling. I began to shake remembering what I had seen earlier and I decided to check my house. 



   When I checked around my house I kept seeing a tall shadowy figure in the corner of my eye. 



   I decided to call the police because that sounds reasonable right??



   The police showed up and checked my house and when they got done they brought out a psychotic looking guy covered in blood. The police gave me a look before telling me they had something to show me.



   They lead me down to the basement and I saw a horrifying scene. There were chopped up guys in a pot and human heads on a shelf. The room was dimly lit with human remains covering the entire room. I looked over at the wall and it said “your next Arianna and I will come back for you, dear”



   I stared horrified as the police reassured me that I was safe…  I knew one thing though. I was not safe.
