seems good. my only suggestion is to add indents

Don't know what's with the downvotes, however, this is a good story, shows how even the most brave of us get scared of the dark or a dream every now and again. Thumbed and Fav'd.

not bad not bad :applejackunsure:

This is a great story, really enjoyed it. thumbed up :pinkiehappy:

Omg! That was really good. I loled a lot

Listening to this while reading. Scary stuff.:pinkiecrazy:

Perfection.
...Well, it would be if you had remembered to indent your paragraphs XD
An irritating detail, but a finishing one.

Story: Oh I'm sorry. Did you want to sleep comfortably tonight?

Me: Kinda...

Story: Too Bad.

This isn't really that scary, to me at least.

Now, being five years old, accidentally seeing a monster movie in which the monster's eyes glow red, and then going to bed and seeing two red lights reflected in your window... THAT'S scary. Especially when your parents look multiple times and can't see it.

True story.

This story is actually based on a real-life condition a person can experience. It's called a "night terror". In short, basically someone experiences a nightmare so real and terrifying that that person wakes up immediately rather than gradually. Because the adrenaline and other chemicals the brain produces in response to being scared haven't had time to drain away yet, the person remains as afraid as they were in the dream. Because of how suddenly they wake up, the person often has no memory of what they were dreaming about or even that they were dreaming at all. All they know is that they are in their bed and for no particular reason are terrified out of their minds.

I feel I didn't explain it very well in the story, but it was for a writing challenge that had a deadline so I didn't have enough time to get out everything they way I wanted. But trust me. I speak from experience when I say it is one of the most terrifying experiences a person could have. At least you eventually found out that it was a pair of lights that was scaring you... I never found out what was terrifying me...:applejackunsure:

I understood what the story was about, I just don't think it's that scary. Of course, I've never experienced it, and my psychological state is firmly set to 'fight' over 'flight'.

It took a week to figure out what was causing the red dots: That whole time I was sleeping under the gaze of a monster. At five years old.

Then we found out it was a baby monitor. A baby monitor terrorized me as a child for a week.

I've experienced this, where I've wakened from sleep from a terrible dream and every. Little. Thing freaks me out. Two glowing eyes at the end of my bed, just my cat. A low moan outside my window, train passing by. Footsteps echoing outside my room, someone getting a drink. I even had one occurrence where I was in my room and looking around and all of a sudden saw something coming up to my face under my blankets. Turned out I was bringing my knees to my chest. XD When you are that scared, anything exists; monsters, killers, anything. XD I know how you feel Twi *Hugs her*
