[DIARY ENTRIES] can anyone help me identify this figure? ;-;

13/2/2011

Hello future me, or anyone who is reading this. This is the start of my diary, I’ve been having some strange occurrences happen to me and I figured I would at least need to document this in some way. I, 24F live alone and have 2 dogs, Max and Scruffy (yeah I know, pretty basic names). This started a month ago, and day by day it’s getting more terrifying. This started from me binge watching those ghost hunting documentaries and getting too deep in researching stuff I don’t think I was meant to see, it was all fun and games for about a week. I used to tell myself this was a coincidence, the lights flickering, and things being misplaced, I mean, I’ve always had a bad memory, it must be that. My landlord is a sketchy guy, surely lights flicker every now and then too. But now, I feel a presence always watching me, and weird, weird things happen to me I don’t even want to explain. If I go missing, I hope someone may find this book. I’ll keep you updated for future events.

Today my dog vanished. Max, I don’t know where he went. I woke up to only Scruffy sitting on the edge of my queen sized bed. At first I figured Max was just thirsty or whatever, but when I got up I frantically searched the house because I had this deep gut feeling, it didn’t feel right. He wasn’t there. He’s no where, I fear they may have taken him.

I saw it today. I woke up paranoid at sunrise this morning. I had a weird feeling in my stomach, the feeling that I needed to get Scruffy outside because something bad might happen to him. So I did, I quickly grabbed the dog leash and scruffy and headed out to the local trail, probably not the best option for a slightly abandoned trail walk in the forest, but I was too focused on saving scruffy that time. About 15 minutes into the walk I heard rustling in the leaves, I looked around carefully for any people which would usually be uncommon and it was empty. Paranoia hit me hard but I kept walking until about the third time I looked back, I saw a figure. It wasn’t human, not at all. It was a tall, black figure with a top hat. Those kind of things you’d see in those horror creepy pasta stories. It hit me like a truck, I couldn’t even process what I was seeing, I jolted with my dog leash in my hand and Scruffy running for his dear life. I know scruffy saw it too, he’s been different ever since. What do I do guys? I’m terrified and I fear no one will even find me if I do go missing.
