Introduction
Halloween is coming soon. With this thought in mind, as you walk home alone, you are ready for all the ghouls and goblins coming to your door, right? Why, of course you are! You’re not afraid of anything!
So you’re not scared of the footsteps you hear behind you, right? No one is there, you know, but that sound still reaches your ears. Thud-Thud. Thud-Thud. Thud-Thud. Now you can’t tell whether or not it’s steps, or your own heartbeat. Do you dare turn around?
Home. You finally made it. Strange, the door was locked when you left this morning… Locking it behind you, call out. See if you get an answer. When you don’t get one, will you stop thinking about it?
Perhaps, perhaps not. So, what happens when you hear- thud-thud. Thud-Thud. THUD-THUD. Your heart doesn’t beat that loudly. But there isn’t anybody with you… There can’t be. You did lock the door didn’t you?
When you see it’s unlocked, what will you do then? Thud-Thud. Thud-THUD. Silence. Even as you feel that hot breath on the back of your neck, there can’t be anyone there…. Right?

- To TheKhamaseen- A hack? I know my writing isn't great, but that's just a bit harsh. Besides, the actual definition of a hack is 'Someone who is a professional at doing some sort of service with bad work'. I am in no way professional, I wrote this for fun. The story isn't really meant to be scary or to make someone feel paranoid, so if you thought it was goofy and gave you a couple giggles, than that's fine. Thank you for the 2nd person comment, it's helpful in increasing my skill since I'm not

NO!!! I repeat NO rhetorical questions you hack.
Also, I know what footsteps sound like, it doesn't build tension it is really just goofy. OH! and 2nd person doesn't automatically involve your reader in the writing. - Report As Spam
