I used to enjoy reading horror stories until I
realized how much they affected me. I had to study late into the
night to prepare for my
examination. Alone
in the hall when everyone else was
asleep, a very
slight noise
frightened me. I imagined that there was
someone behind
me while I was
memorizing mathematical formulae. Every
time the
curtains fluttered in
the wind, my heart missed a
beat. When my neighbour's dog barked, I
broke out in goose bumps because dogs are supposed
to be able
to see spirits that are invisible to the human
eye. Finally, I decided to
read aloud so that at least I had the company of my
voice.
Unfortunately, I soon felt thirsty from it. Still I
dared
not go to the kitchen to get a drink in
case a
werewolf was waiting there to pounce
on me.
After the examination, I had plenty of time on my
hands. What do you
think I did? I read everything
from comics to
science-fiction,
but I did not read a single horror story this time. |
