One night when I was 12, my dad and I were coming home from a dance competition. It was about 11:00, and we passed this really old house that gave me the creeps when we were approaching it. I noticed that there was a hitch-hiker standing in the break-down lane. He had no head, yet a head was under his arm, and the eyes were blinking. There was a little blood on the coller of his shirt, and I thought that it was two kids playing a joke on us. When we passed this creep, there was no body behind the head. I started to get a little scared, and my dad sped up the car until we got home. We talked about it for a little while when we got home, and I said that I wanted to do some reasearch.

The next morning, I went online and started looking for answers. When I was looking up 'a boy with no head', a news article came up that was written yesterday afternoon, about a 12-year-old boy. He was beheaded in that house that we drove by. Ever since that day, I feel the presence of that boy lurking around, and watching me. Strange things happen when I am home. My things disappear, and I hear a voice talking about how he need someone. I recently tried to contact him with one of my friends. He got mad at us and my lamp fell on the floor and broke. I haven't made contact with him since. Yet, every year on that night up to now (4 years)I find 2 knives on the counter whenever I come downstairs, and no one is around.
