What Not to Do

When working alone on a night shift at a personal care home, it's a terrible idea to spend your break reading the movie reviews in the newspaper. That's when you come across reviews for creepy movies you've seen previewed on TV, like Boogeyman and Hide & Seek. Then the music and all the creepy scenes come back to you, and suddenly the silence is eerie. Suddenly the resident groaning in her sleep is actually seeing dead people who are walking all over the house, plotting your untimely demise. Suddenly the hairs on the back of your neck stand up while you're doing dishes with your back vulnerably facing the rest of the suddenly ominous house. And if there were to be a crash or any sudden noise, you'd probably die of a heart attack.
