They wonder why I'm afraid of the dark

So, when I was 11, I lived in a trailer with my gram and my mom. We also had a dog, who's name was Bubba. One night, I took bubba outside. It was a normal night; very chill, not too hot. We have a motion sensor light on the entrance of our porch. One night, while I was taking bubba outside, I turned on the motion light. I was waiting for Bubba to do something, the motion light turned off. I was going to turn it back on, but that's when Bubba started acting strange. He had his body pointed right towards the woods barking. I finally made my way to the light to turn it back on. When I did, I couldn't believe my eyes.

It was a tall, skinny figure standing between two trees. The creature had two bright eyes, with small/no pupils. I quickly ran up the stairs of my porch and locked the door. I looked out the window and saw that the creature was gone. I've never seen the creature again, and hopefully never will.
