A teenage babysitter put the kids she was watching in their beds and went downstairs. The late night news was on the tv. The reporter said that a psychopath from the local mental institution was on the loose and police thought he might be in the area. He cautioned residents to lock all their doors and windows because the man was very, very dangerous. Well, the teenager checked the locks on all the doors and windows, but forgot the door the the cellar bulkhead. Later that night, the children heard some noises downstairs, but thought it was the babysitter moving some furniture around. Then it got real quiet. All they heard for the remainder of the night was this noise: "Thump, thump, dra-aag. Thump, thump, dra-aag. Evidently, they were too afraid to get up and see what it was. In the morning, the parents came home and were horrified to find the babysitter at the top of the stairs, dead with both arms hacked off at the elbows. She had been climbing the stairs on the bloody stumps of her arms, pulling her badly injured body along.
