15. When I was a kid, I saw a witch under my bed.
“When I was a kid, I saw a witch under my bed.
I was pretty young, and I remember waking up in the middle of the night because something was poking the underside of my mattress and causing it to raise up slightly. I got up, went to use the restroom, and came back and remembered why I woke up. The room I had at the time was slightly illuminated by a night light, so I slowly bent down to look under the bed to see what was poking me, and there was a fucking witch or something under my bed. It was a small person/thing with ragged clothes on, and long straggly hair. I remember she hissed at me when I made eye contact, and I ran to my parents’ room, and promptly asked to sleep with them.
Now I remember why I loved sleeping on the pullout couch so much as a child.”
