I was outside at night, with my dad and sister. All of a sudden I saw in the corner of my eye a black shadow zip across my road. I ignore it though, but then like 15 seconds later I turn over in that direction again and see a shadow with a mask attached to its head. It just sat there looking at me for a second before crab walking away. I’m point it out this time and me and we all stare at the road if it comes back. My sister starts inching towards the road to get a close look, I yell to come back but she doesn’t listen. Suddenly the shadow thing appears again and begins choking my sister. Out of adrenaline I run over and roundhouse the thing in the jaw. It puts down my sister and makes a strange noise before leaving my road. This happened like a year ago though so take it with a grain of salt.
