One night, a young woman came home after going out for a nice dinner with her family. She plopped on the couch, and turned on the TV. After a while, she heard the sound of snow coming down on her roof. She looked out the sliding glass door, into her backyard. However, she saw a strange figure moving. He came closer, and what she saw sent her under the covers. She had seen a man holding up a butcher knife. While she was under there, she pulled out her phone and called the police. The police showed up, and she went outside to watch the two detectives. However, they didn't find any footprints. They went through the house, and one detective looked behind the couch where she had been sitting. He walked over to her.
"Ma'am, you are incredibly lucky to be alive right now."
"Why?" She asked, baffled.
"The man you saw was not outside. What you saw was his reflection. He was standing right behind you the whole time." He said, gesturing to the wet footprints on the carpet.
