A few years ago, i was babysitting a friend's daughter. They lived in an apartment with a big patio window. She walk up to the glass door leading out to the patio and stared motionless into the night for several minutes. Shortly after, she runs into my arms saying "scary. Too scary." She wouldn't let me put her down and demanded that i hold her and rock her for the next half hour. Eventually she started repeating over and over. "The dark coming inside now. The dark coming inside now."
