DANCING DOLLS
A few years ago,when I was about 9 or 10 my parents sent
my older brother and I to my grandparents house to stay
for the weekend.They had an old 2 storey,3 bedroom
house.The main bedroom was downstairs and the other 2 were
upstairs. I stayed in my mothers old bedroom which was full
of dolls she had collected when she was younger.
I went to bed early because I was tired of the 3 hour
trip. I drifted off to sleep but awoke hours later
restless.My brother was snoring loudly so I got up and
closed the door. That was scary for me because I was afraid
of the dark so I usually slept with the door open. I
decided to draw back the curtains so I could let a bit of
light come into the room.
I eventually fell asleep again but woke to what sounded
like classical music softly playing downstairs.I didn't
think much of it but out of the corner of my eye I could
see moving shadows. Dancing shadows. I looked over at the
shadows only to find 4 couples of formally dressed dolls
lying on the floor.
By now I was scared to death so I pulled the covers over
my head and I drifted back to sleep. When I woke in the
morning the dolls had moved even further and were now
about half a metre from my bed. I put them back and didn't
tell anyone about what had happened.
A few months ago my parents sent my brother and I to sleep
there again. This time(just to be sure) I insisted to sleep
in the other bedroom upstairs which was filled with
various ornaments. I felt safer there and I fell asleep only to wake up to the sounds of soft classical music...
