Fear is all around us

The Room

True Story

________________________

When I was seven (I'm 14 now) I had a big bedroom all to myself. The bedroom door was right next to my closet and on the other wall right next to the door, I had a very long dresser that took up half of the wall. In the center of my long dresser, I had a lamp. The lamp cord was right behind it because that is where the outlet is.

Well, one day when I walked into my room, the lamp came flying of the dresser into the hallway. I screamed really loud and my parents came running to see what was wrong.

They saw the lamp lying on the floor and assumed I did it. To this day they still don't believe me. I am still living in this house but I'm now sharing a room with my older sister. Whenever I go into that room I feel as if I am being watched and I get a very uneasy feeling. To this day, the door to my old room stays closed.
