23rd of October 1985
Oh god tonight was the worst night ever. When I woke up to check on the lighthouse again, I saw something. But not that thing I saw the other times. It was a woman. She didn’t look like a normal human. All of her limbs were broken and I saw the bones coming out. It was so disgusting. And her face looked so messed up. She was smiling. But it didn’t look normal. It looked like she was in pain. There were scratch marks all over her face and a lot of blood. She just stood there in my room. After some time that thing ran in and grabbed her just to leave again. She didn’t scream or try to fight it. She didn’t to anything other than stare at me with that smile. I have no idea who she was or what happened to her, but I think I really am going insane.
I just got a new call from a ship. It’s not a big ship and there are only two persons in it. They asked me if they could stay, because apparently a storm was approaching. I decided to let them stay and we checked the lighthouse again for any damages. Then one of them came to me and asked me about a cave that was near the lighthouse. I said that there is no cave here, but she said she wanted to show it to me, so I followed her. But when we arrived there was nothing. I jokingly said that maybe she is also going to be insane, but she didn’t respond and just left. Perhaps I shouldn’t have said that. After we checked the lighthouse, we got food from the cabin and went inside. I am sitting next to them now, while waiting for the storm to be over. It is really bad and I hope we’re safe here, but I am pretty sure the lighthouse is going to be fine.
