Monster Story

Bumps in the Night

          Screeeeeetch!  Is the sound the door is making as Keegan is opening it.  He was awaken from his slumbers by sounds coming from the other side of this door.  Therefore, he tiptoed over and slowly, very slowly, very quietly reached out his hand and open the door.  However, now he is standing in front a sight that he just cannot quit believe. 

            It was not a person no that was certain. It was not an animal. Could it be, could it really be a monster? He stood at least seven feet tall, and had a fury purple body. One of his arms had a hand and the other was this claw looking hand. He did not have regular legs like I have, but instead it just looked like his fury hair dangling and I mean there was a lot of hair. It was a darker shade of purple on the bottom. He had one really big eye in the center on his; well I guess you could say head, except it was more like he just one round body. It was the shape of packman villains. He had 6 large and I mean large white teeth peering out his big mouth. He had drool perfuming from the sides of his mouth. The funny thing is it almost looked like he was smiling. He was making this slight growling noise like a dog can do when they are about to attack. On top of his body, he had a few wild strains of hair. He also had these turquoise blue bumps that looked like if you popped them they would squirt a large amount of puss at you.        

            As, I looked at him I was sure he could eat me in one small bite.  Therefore, as I was standing there I see my closet monster move his hand as if he is going to grab me.  Instead, he reached out his claw and said, “Hello, I am Hairy nice to meet you”.  I screamed slammed the door and flew back to my bed.  I never heard anymore bumping around in my closet after that night.  Now, I am not sure if he was going to eat me or if he really was a nice monster, but I was not going to take my chances.
