My parents died a few days ago so I had to move with my grandma across the country.I was going through a few books that I found from the attic of my parents. The first box was about law and presidents. Every time I looked at a book I said,"boring". As I turned to  the second box I saw books about dolls and how to keep them from coming alive. I was so confused. For the rest of the ride I was confused. Finally I got there. From the start I could tell my grandma was not very interested by the fact that I had to stay here but she did her best to be nice and take me in.And i did my part to act like I wanted her in my life. As soon as I got a drink from the hot water from the pantry I asked my grandma if she knew anything about the old books. Before she could answer her eyes got really big and she started shaking. She said,"don't go by Daryl, I don't want to loose you to." When I went to bed I acted like I understood her so she wouldn't get upset because I know that she had anxiety problems in the past. For the next couple of days we hadn't said anything about the night that I moved in because my grandma was very quiet. She often stared into the corner for hours at a time. A few days later when I was sleeping someone knocked at my window. "Who can be up this late,it's impossible," I said to my self. I looked at my alarm clock, 3:50 am on the dot. "It's my first day at school tomorrow I have to get some sleep at least." I kept talking to my self until someone knocked again. A little creeped out I go to the window to see who it is, "no one." I get really upset and kick my bed. "Ouch!" I say. Another knock, then another. I run outside to see what's going on. I hear a rumble in the leaves. I quickly grab a stick. Then I moved the bush with my foot,nothing. "Uhhh I said to myself." Then I quietly went inside so I wouldn't wake the neighbors. As soon as I hit the bed I fell asleep. I then woke up in my dream running as fast as I could, I wanted to stop and take a breath but something behind me with glowing eyes and dark hair just kept chasing me. My heart was about to pop out of my chest. I ran to a house but it was not my grandmas. It had vines and mold all over it. I didn't care I started banging on the door. I heard footsteps slowly walking to the door. Finally someone answered, but right when the door opened it all was just a blur.
