365 Nights of Fear

Night # 72 X's and O's

This next chilling tale is about a teenager named Russell who begins to receive a little chill after getting little notes from a stranger.

Russell came home from school one day and discovered something in his backpack. He pulled a small piece of paper out of his backpack with XOXO written all over it. He could not figure out how they had gotten it in the backpack without him knowing. He threw it away thinking nothing further of it.

The next day when he got home from school his mother handed him a piece of paper saying that she found it in his bedroom. She did not want to invade his privacy thinking it may have been something from a girl that he liked. He opened the piece of paper up and once again it had the letters XOXO written all over it. The whole thing was starting to get a little frightening.

Later that night as he went to fall asleep he heard something rustling around in his closet. He slowly got up and opened the closet door. He turned the light on in the closet but nothing was there or at least that is what he thought until he looked down and seen a piece of paper on the floor of the closet. He slowly opened it up and noticed that it was not the same as the two previous ones. This time it read, " I have been watching you Russell and I want to take you home with me."

This really scared Russell. He did not even know who the person was let alone where they lived. He did not know what to do except turn off the closet light to go back to bed. When he went to throw the note away a cold hand reached out and grabbed him. He began to scream as she started dragging him down the hall. She quickly drug him out of the house before his parents could figure out what was going on. A neighbor called the police after hearing Russell scream outside the house but it was too late. The police along with neighbors searched desperately for him but they would never find him. He was six feet under with the young dead girl. She took him home with her for good.
