SELFIE- By Zainab Sameen XI A
It was around 11:30pm. The weather was dark. I was a collage girl who lived in Illinois, US. One night, I was alone at home waiting for my friends to go to the party. But unfortunately they were late to pick me up because of the traffic jam. My friend Anna called me and said “We will reach your home by 12:30”.
I was bored, so I thought to take a selfie. I began to take selfies and when I got the picture in the gallery, suddenly I noticed a weird, scary and creepy face right behind my shoulder. I shivered of fear. I turned back only to be met with silence. So I just chilled and thought it might be my imagination and took a selfie again. The same face appeared again. It shook me up, I looked around and asked “whose there” but only silence was the reply.
So suddenly I got a thought that whenever I take a selfie, the face appeared and when I tried to look back, there was nothing -like its normal. It was not seen by my naked eyes but can be seen with the help of a camera. So I decided to clear the doubt whether something is there or not.
I turned on the front camera and moved towards the hall, but nothing was seen and then I moved towards the kitchen and then to the restroom but nothing was seen. Everything was normal. So I turned off my camera.
Later I felt some negative pressure in the house and again I turned on my camera to check on whether anything is there or not.
This time when I was about to take a selfie, I screamed in horror and suddenly something grabs my head.
