For your sleepless nights (Scary short stories)

nightmare circle...

It's 3 am in the morning, my wife woke up screaming from a bad dream. I instantly hug her to calm her down, tears of fear going down her cheek, and I ask her -what's wrong?-

-do you want to tell me about it?-

-No! I mean, I dont know... It's just, in my dream, I wake up screaming, you hold me and ask me "whats wrong?" and as I tell you, the beast from the closet comes out and devours you in front of me..."

As she tells me her dream, I can hear the closet door slowly open behind me...
