Who's Afraid of The Dark?

Who's Afraid of The Dark?

A Story by KKlinger
"

short horror

"

     Mommy says there is no reason to be afraid of the dark because dark is only the absence of light. She says that everything is still the same around me only I can’t see it because there is no light to see it with. As well, she says there is no boogie-man, no monsters hiding under my bed, and no skeletons living in my closet. I suppose she is mostly right. But I’m not so sure about that one really dark spot right next to my dresser there towards the floor. I mean when my eyes get used to the darkness in my room I can still see some shapes and shadow of things, but not there. There it is like a nothing spot. So dark that nothing could be there at all. It seems more like a deep void where not even darkness can get into.

     I have heard that people when they die, they follow a bright light to heaven. Now I wonder… if following the light leads to Heaven, Where does darkness lead. And what horrible creatures might from there emerge?
