The Man With the Hat

My child asked me
"Have you seen the man with the hat"
i answered him "no i haven't" 
He told me about him he's very nice he's 
tall, have a hat and black
I asked him "Like a shadow"
"Yeah" he answered   
He said that when "I told anyone he would have to leave
but for 2 years I haven't told anyone but me,myself and I 
Haven't you heard him he broke the glass you blamed me for 
"Yeah" and he said he was the spawn of Satan and that he was evil 
but I didn't believe him and he got anyone and after he was more quiet 
After what has happened 
" Where does he come out?" I asked 
He responded "Right behind you" 
As i turned around the cold, Black darkness swept over me.
