The man in the top hat

Author: Quinn

this story happened to me when I was around 8 or 9. I was at my friend’s house. With my older brother and sister. We play this game I forget what it’s called but you chanted Red Door yellow door any other color door over and over. They would be one person who would lay down and close their eyes while everyone else chanted this. And there would be another person who would instruct them what to do. I was instructing my friend and he said in one of the rooms. He saw a black figure wearing a top hat. We played some other games until We all fell asleep in their game room. But At around 3 in the morning I woke up. I don’t know why but I decided to go in my friend’s room to get my stuffed animal out of my bag. And I ended up staying in there. I felt really uncomfortable and as if I couldn’t breathe properly. The light in the hallway was on and I looked out and froze. I could see a very clear black figure wearing top hat. The feeling of not being able to breathe properly intensified. I remember just looking away and crying while sitting on my friends bed. I don’t know when the figure left. But I do remember my friend’s mom coming in and calming me down. She asked me what was wrong and I told her about the figure. She laid me down and stayed with me until I fell asleep. The next morning my friend’s mom went and told my siblings and my friends not to play scary games like that anymore cuz I was too little and it was scaring me. But a few years later one of my friends told me that her friend that she didn’t tell about this instance. Said that she also saw a black figure wearing a top hat in my friends hallway. Both of my friends have said that they believe their house to be haunted. And knowing what I experienced there I think I believe it too.
