Once, late in the night, I was walking in the park to catch some fresh air before going to bed, there was nobody around…then, suddenly I noticed that SOMETHING was following me – when I walked faster, it speeded up, when I slowed down, it slowed down…fear gripped my faint heart.

 When I walked up to the park lamp post IT disappeared, then I ralised that it was my own shadow cast by the park lantern.

  • Creepy shadow! Thanks for joining. You used some clever punctuation to try to keep this to two lines. I challenge you to try to rewrite your story in two lines without ... / – /... . Will you accept this challenge?

  • Caramba Rys! Probably the shadow was scared as well... thinking: 'Why that guy is walking so weird? He's freaking me out!!'

  • Ha...ha....Mr. rysperski. I hope you'll not be deceived by your shadow anymore. :)

  • I've also experienced this situation, but at the end I understood that it was not my shadow... it was his shadow... well done rysperski...

  • What would be more unnerving is if you saw two shadows following you! :0

  • We always afraid of our own shadows. :D :D :D :D
