I was forced to watch about 45 minutes of the movie before my momma came upstairs and saw what my brothers were doing to me. They were scolded and I was told to go get ready for bed. I went to change into my PJs, brush my teeth, etc. when I decided to go downstairs to talk to my momma and thank her for the great Halloween.
After giving my goodnights and “I love you” to my parents, I wandered, back upstairs ready for bed. The lights were still out in the game room so I thought my brothers were still watching the horrifying movie.
I stepped into my room to turn off my light and stopped mid-action thinking about the terrifying clowns I had just seen in the movie. What if they were in my room? Nah, I thought to myself. So I turned off my light (night light still on though). As I crept towards my bed, I felt something grab me from underneath the bed. It was a hand with a big white glove on it. Along with the grab was a screeching laugh… a clown laugh!
I tried to pull myself loose from the clown’s grip, screaming all the while. After about thirty seconds of trying to squeeze loose, I was finally able to wiggle my way out of the evil clown’s grip. I immediately ran into my closet, slamming the door and locking it. I tried to stay quiet, terrified the evil clown might find me. I pushed to the back of the, shoving my shoes and toys in front of me. I wanted the evil clown to trip trying to get me; maybe that would give me some time to scream.
When I finally reached the back of the closet, I noticed I wasn’t leaning against the wall. I was leaning against something that was breathing. I tried to turn around, but the person grabbed my shoulders and started screeching the same screech I’d heard before… another clown!
I fell to my knees. The other clown had gotten into the closet and was making his way closer to me, while the one holding me squeezed my shoulders and pushed his floppy nose in my face. I was terrified to death. I screamed for my parents, but figured they were already in bed and wouldn’t hear me. This was the end, I thought. I was going to die just like the innocent people in the movie died.

Remember, Amanda..
"We all float, down here.."
I noticed you referred to the book, one of Kings best!
But it's odd, I can't seem to remember..
I'm starting to forget.
Well - I suppose it couldn't have been anything important.
