Last night I had the most terrifying nightmare of my life. Never
had I thought such fear could exist. The fear I felt was worse than
anything I'd encountered in real life. Here is my dream:
I remembered standing by my bedroom window on the 8th storey of my
HDB flat. The sky was grey, and rain was falling. There were 2
other HDB flats near mine. One on the left and the other on the
right. I could see both of them clearly. A deafening shriek, and I
looked up, seeing a small black shape, like a crow in the distance.
It seemed to be circling in the sky. Then, the black shape flew in
my direction, and I realized that the black shape was huge, and not
the size of any crow I knew existed. It was the size of a human
male, black was its outfit, and bat's wings were spread as the bat
man (not Batman) came closer and closer. It landed on the roof of
the HDB flat on my left, and I remembered calling out to my father,
who came rushing to my side, and we started, stunned, at the sight
of the bat man, his mouth open, a wail escaping his lips. Lightning
streaked across the sky, and the humanoid reared back his head,
seemed to be calling.
Another black humanoid I saw, circling in the sky, that came
towards its companion on the roof. Both stood together, as my dad
and I tried to interpret this scene. The, with powerful flaps of
wings, the two humanoids took off, flew above our flat and
disappeared out of sight. I recalled in my nightmare that I was too
afraid to go back to bed, so I switched on the television, and a
news reporter was saying that 2 unidentified objects were seen
flying over the area. The screen flickered, and a picture came into
view. It was a picture of one of the bat men, flying in the sky, as
rain fell all around him. Then, one bat man crashed into my bedroom
window, it was trying desperately to claw its way through the metal
and glass into my room. I was so freaked out that I sat watching as
the creature howled and moaned, its hands reaching for me. I woke
up then...
This is a nightmare I will never forget, and I've already written
it down in my diary of the most horrifying dreams of my life. By
the way, the nightmare is not influenced by me watching too much
batman, but by a painting I saw a few weeks ago, named 'The
Spring-Heeled Jack'.
Here is Spring-Heeled Jack, a strange flying humanoid that
terrorized the people of England in the 19th century:
