A Bit of Terror

When I was a child,_I used to play in front of the mirror that was in my mother’s bedroom. In those times days, it was very normal to found find me playing alone in that part of my house.

Then So, a certain one day, while I was playing as usual, I felt a chill in down my back/spine but instead of pay paid no attention to that I just and kept on playing. But However, that chill striked back again and in that occasion this time, something made me turned my head towards the mirror [or "... made me glanced into the mirror..."] and what I saw still haunts me today... until now:

There was a huge black shadow of blackness/darkness looming behind me, with its out stretched his long arms and trying to hold grab me…__I screamed and dropped my toys in terror.  and Even tough my strong and sturdy legs were shaking/quaking in  because of the fear.  Finally, somehow my legs found their strength to prop me I stood up and started to run away to escape from the spectre.

While all this was happening, my mother was cooking but when she heard the scream, she went rushed over me to see what was happening. I told her the story and I was still through my sobbing but obviously she didn’t believe a word I said. I’m still wondering whether what I saw was just a creation figment of my imagination.  Until now that is It is still the strangest /most bizzare/eeriest experience to date I’ve ever had….


Any feedback it will be is appreciated! Thanks in advance :)

Some are not wrong but corrected to show you how to write better :)  Yes, once on the beach, wading in shallow waters, a sunken black tyre became a giant coiled seasnake in my mind.

How old were you? It sounds pretty unrealistic, but I guess I just generally don't really believe in things like this:D
