Creepy Short Stories

Under the Bed

I felt my heart beating rapidly in my chest, beat echoing deep inside my ears. I was hidden under the bed. I saw a pair of feet patter along the ground onto the mattress above me. It squeaked as the person above me wriggled. I heard giggling. I pressed my hand against my lips as I knew that my was loud. What if they saw me? Oh God, oh no. A hand flew from the bed and pulled a cord, plunging the room to darkness. Maybe now's my chance to escape from under the bed. I slowly push myself from under the bed. Luckily, these floorboards seem not to creak. I stand up slowly, my hand still clamped tight over my mouth. I stand over the little girl's bed, pulling the blade from my side. I rock back and forth until a scream erupts from the girls mouth, but it's too late. The monster under her bed came to play.
