Around midnight I was awakened by a noise I assumed was my father coming in from work. I never did see he pass my door and enter his room. Shortly after the noise awoke me, I saw a shadowed figure who was only lighted by the little night light in the bathroom between my sister and my rooms.
The figure remained motionless. I was absolutely petrified. I could move, I wanted to try calling out but was to afraid. I hid my head under the top covers a few times, only to peek out and see this figure in my doorway, unmoved, dark. We (apparently) stared each other down a good part of the night. I watched the little clock radio on my nightstand as it passed hours.
The next morning I asked my dad if he had been peering into my room last night. His reply was, "were you dreaming about your daddy". So I know it was not him and it didn't make any sense for him to stand for hours in my doorway anyhow.
