The sight of Bloody Mary terrifies me. I quickly drop to the floor and start crawling towards the bathtub. I get in the bathtub and peek around the shower curtain and watch. The bathroom is glowing red and Bloody Mary just stares into the mirror. She seems to have dark frizzy hair that cover her face completely. She wears a ripped up white robe and her skin is slightly light green in color. She gazes around the room trying to find me. Failing at their attempt she disappears from the mirror and the bathroom is dark again. I hop out of the bathtub and head towards the door. I open it and walk out into the hall. The hall seems to be undisturbed. I look at all of the doors to my right. When I look to my left I see my parent's room door has opened. I walk over into their room and I look around. The TV remains silent, there is no activity going on in the room at all. I look all around the room and I notice a rectangular shaped black thing on the floor. I pick it up and it is a tape. The tape is labeled "our new house." I put the tape in my parents VCR and I turn on the TV and watch. The tape shows my parents moving into the house that I live in now. The tape consists of them walking inside and unpacking and stuff like that. While I'm watching I keep listening to my parents mentioning something like a sound in the basement. They go down in the basement and everything seems fine so they decide to put some storage down there. I see them putting in the old clock that I checked the time with, and they also kept experiencing the clanging and the lights going on and off. They decide to leave the basement and for the rest of the tape they just sit in the living room and watch TV. As I have watched this tape I have seen a few things that I have recognized from tonight. Then the tape stops and a face appears on the screen. The man doesn't look normal though. He has a pale face and black eyes, he is short and bald and he looks to be wearing black clothing. I hear a noise in the doorway. I look over and the man on the tape is standing there.
