I’m sorry if this seems rushed but I am running out of time. I have been happily married for the last 16 years and have two beautiful children. I fell in love with my wife as soon as I met her, and not long after we moved in together, I did not suspect anything back then, even though the signs were there, for instance when she slept, she talked I mean a lot. The first night she stayed I woke to hear her describe what she was going to do to me with a knife. Yes, she used my name, I am not going to go into detail, but it was not pretty, I’ll admit after the first 10 minutes I begin to worry. I confronted her the following morning, but she just laughed it off, I put it down to night terror and after a while I got used to it.

She was always very good to me, and we had very few arguments but when we did, things started to go wrong for me, nothing big, just little things like a door slamming on my face as I walked through it, or the handle of my cup of hot coffee may suddenly fall off. I am not a spiteful person and would never wish harm on anyone, but everyone I seem to argue with gets hurt some more than others. One of our Neighbours complained about our dog digging in his garden the next day there’s a sinkhole that destroys his whole garden. Another used to walk through our land and leave the gate open, now he is in a wheelchair.

I know what you are thinking, it’s all just one big coincidence, well that’s what I thought until last week things began to change. I started getting sleep paralysis, which is not unusual, and seeing a dark figure standing at the end of my room. Every night it got a little bit closer until last night it was standing over me, I was so terrified, I tried calling my wife, but nothing came out. This is when things got strange, I heard my wife’s voice and suddenly able to move I hugged my wife in relief. She smiled and said, “he won’t be bothering you again honey” I never told her about my sleep paralysis or the dark figure.

This morning at breakfast when I confronted her, she did not deny anything, only said, “say the word and he will come for them.” before walking out and the kids following like emotionless zombies.

I didn’t know what to do so, I went to work, now I got a message from her demanding me come home with the words, “OR ELSE” at the end of it. I have no idea what any of this means, and I am too scared I’ll find out.
