I felt something cold touch my shoulder and slowly started to turn around… The sight was enough to make me faint. Let alone the sound it was making. A horrific growl like sound escaped the creature's mouth. I don’t know whether it is human or monster. I realise it’s both…

I was walking back from school late one day. I had to stay back longer because I got detention. It was probably about 8pm. I decided to take a shortcut home so I cut through the alley. This was mistake number one.

Mistake number two was worse than number one. There was a light off in the alley. I walked towards the light that was off. I was really confused, I walked this alley most days and all the light glow. I walked towards the only light in the alley that was off. I Then the light flickered. I saw a shadow of something then it was gone. I froze with fear. Then I made mistake number three.

I ran over to where I saw the shadow. Only nothing was there. I begin to shake all over and a chill runs down my spine. I saw something. I know I did. I’m not crazy… I think…

After the dark thoughts left my mind a cold hand drifted past on my shoulder. I slowly turned around, Behind me was a mix of human and monster. It had big read eyes that bulged out of their sockets and a green slime covered its body. It let out a low moan that sounded like a zombie gone wrong. I screamed and ran. I ran and ran and ran.

I have never gone down that alley again. I don’t think I ever will. Since then I have never seen anything like it, sometimes I think it is a dream. But then the image of the zombie like creature returns and I know it’s not… It’s out there somewhere. And I know I will see it again.
