Nightmare On Elm Street

"My college try at 'You're in a Horror film " something has taken over his spirit I do think I'll be his next ... The land line rings , I answer Hello ? a response with crackling voice. " Do you remember me , I am an old friend ? " Who is this ? I respond noticing the rain falling hard .. a sketchy voice response.. I am here , can't you see me? "is this a sick Joke ? as I grab a knife for protection" I'm calling the police ! This is Harassment ! " The police are here ' ....'in a psychotic response The lights go out , the lightning from the storm has hit a tree, I am scarred now, looking for all candles to light my way A loud Knock ! Again a knock , I slam the phone down , fearfully lock the door fast, yet trembling. It's as if someone is breathing a cold breath with a long finger nail running down my back .. Knock Knock again , I look out the peep hole, it is the police ! Opening the door , The Policeman says " We are checking to see if you are Ok ? You need to let me in and stand behind me " The policeman calls for backup to Elm Street . " Someone said they saw a tall man with a mask and knife enter your basement , The storm has blown out the electricity, lines are down " Grabbing the cordless, I respond " someone just called , scarring me! " That is not possible , these lines have been down for hours , the person driving by called prescient on a cell. I try to get a line and the phone is dead .... The policeman is searching the home with a flashlight . As he goes into the Kitchen I see a large knife in his Back shirt , Now he is laughing ..the phone rings .. 'you're in a Horror movie contest '
