He went to the bathroom because he thought the noise was coming from there. He saw the light on and he entered. He saw a shadow in the bath and he pulled the curtain aside. He found Greg, who seemed to be dead. He was really nervous so he washed his face. Suddenly, he felt a cold hand touching his back. When the sun rose, the main news in all the newspapers was the death of two teenagers. Nobody knows what happened that horrible night.

It was a cold night in 1970. I was reading a novel in the cabin where I live in the woods. While I was taking a shower, I heard some strange noises outside. I decided to look out from the window to see what it was and I only saw some enormous footsteps. The next day, I went to the village and I found a group of people screaming. Then, I saw an army shooting at an enormous gorilla. The bullets didn’t hurt it because they ricocheted. Finally, it got annoyed and started eating part of the town. Before it could eat everybody, it got its fill, so some people like me survived and the monster exploded. The villagers celebrated Halloween having its organs for dinner.

Dear diary… Finally, the night had fallen. The sky was dark as coal and the moon was nowhere to be found. Such an amazing view of the midnight sky made me delighted. But why was I awake at that hour? Oh, I remember now. I was making my way to the bathroom since I had heard a weird screeching sound while I was sleeping. There, unsurprisingly, I found nothing. The only thing I could see in the dark was my own reflection in the mildly cracked mirror. Afterwards, I returned to bed. In the morning, after breakfast, I decided to brush my teeth. I entered the bathroom and there, to my horror, I found nothing but a shattered window.
