El Monstruo Que Vive En Mi Armario Historias De Terror - Voces De La Noche · Niebla en el bosque con Evelith von

My childhood was pretty lonely. Today I know I have a certain degree of
0:10
autism, so I guess that' s why it took me to socialize as
0:15
a child, although I also consider that much of it was the abandonment of
0:19
my two parents at a very young age. In fact, the memory I
0:21
have of them is rather vague. I spent my childhood from one house to
0:26
another. I usually only had one or two years left before it was too
0:30
big a burden for family members who had agreed to take care of me.
0:36
It was in one of these many moves that I arrived at my Aunt Margarita
0:40
' s house. She had two other girls about my age, who were
0:45
my cousins. But since I stepped on that house, I knew they didn
0:50
' t agree with my arrival, as they made it clear to me that
0:55
I couldn' t touch their things and that none of them wanted me to
0:59
sleep in their room. So, my aunt decided to put a tent down
1:03
the hall for me to sleep there. This scared me a lot, since
1:10
right next to my store there was a door that was like a closet,
1:14
although my aunt used it as a cellar to keep all the things she thought
1:19
might serve her at some point. The reason I was so scared was because
1:23
my cousins told me that there was a monster in there who ate people.
1:30
It should be noted that at this moment I was barely eight years old,
1:34
so obviously I believed everything they told me, not to mention that at night
1:40
one was heard one of them creaking inside that closet. Although I know that
1:45
at least at the time he was not exactly a monster, there were so
1:49
many things that sometimes fell. I remember being bothered all the time with the
1:55
monster telling me he' d take me and all that stuff kids use to
2:00
scare others. I was very afraid, but I was also sick of being
2:04
the object of their jokes and jokes. On one occasion I decided to take
2:08
this whole thing on my behalf and when they frightened me again with that subject,
2:14
I replied that I was no longer afraid of him, since he had
2:17
spoken to me and he and I were great friends. At first, they
2:21
looked at me pretty confused. However, I decided to go on with all
2:25
that and I mentioned some more details. The truth is that they were things
2:30
that at the time I only made things up like I was very high,
2:36
but I could change shape if I wanted to, becoming any kind of animal,
2:40
person or object I wanted. I told them it could also turn into
2:45
smoke and pass under the slits of the door. Also, I told them
2:50
that if any of them ever bothered me again, the monster would go after
2:53
them, because now he was my friend and there was everything I told him
2:59
and as expected, they did not believe me or laugh at me, although
3:02
I was more than willing to convince them that it was real. Obviously,
3:07
I knew he wasn' t real, but I really wanted them to believe
3:13
it so they would at least stop bothering me or be a little nicer to
3:16
me. I remember I started to invent a lot more things about him I
3:23
told them that when he turned into smoke, he could own his stuffed animals,
3:28
that his teeth were very sharp and that he had the snout similar to
3:30
a dog. In addition, I told them that his eyes were very similar
3:35
to those of a cat, that he also had huge claws and that his
3:39
legs were like those of a big bear and his claws could be seen protruding
3:45
from each of his legs. But, in case this was soon after,
3:50
I started making evidence. I once told them I' d prove it real.
3:54
So I spread a little talcum at the foot of the door of that
3:59
closet and told them that the next day there would be footsteps, since the
4:03
monster would go to see them at night and during the morning, when everyone
4:08
was asleep, I left my tent and started drawing those talcum footprints clearly were
4:13
made by a girl. Besides, my aunt was upset that she wasted so
4:20
much talcum and punished me. That day we were all going to a trampoline
4:27
park to celebrate the birthday of one of my cousins, but since I was
4:31
grounded, I had to stay home to clean up what I had done and
4:35
think about my actions, although I must point out that during all that time
4:42
I kept holding that it was not me, but the monster who had made
4:47
those footsteps and thrown all that talcum. But they still didn' t believe
4:50
me. I remember when they left I was really devastated because I really wanted
4:58
to go to that trampoline park. I cleaned everything up and went to my
5:01
store to cry. I think I cried until I fell asleep and didn'
5:05
t wake up until they arrived and as I looked out I saw my cousins
5:12
very happy with all the things they had bought them and I felt a huge
5:15
envy. At that point in my life I was a child and I didn
5:19
' t know how to deal with all those emotions I was feeling. So
5:24
the first thing that occurred to me was to make them think that a much
5:28
better day had passed than they did, even if I had to make it
5:30
up. So, as soon as they went to my store to brag about
5:35
everything they had bought from me, I replied that I didn' t care
5:40
about that at all, because the monster and I had spent a great day
5:44
together. I told them it didn' t matter where they went, because
5:48
the monster was much better and much more fun. I told them that I
5:53
could make the side of nothing and that, in addition to eating children,
5:57
I also fed mountains and mountains of ice cream of all the existing flavors,
6:02
some even created by him. Besides, I told them that I could move
6:06
things with his mind and that I could fly if I wanted to. I
6:11
told them that he and I had been playing board games and all kinds of
6:15
fun things while they were gone, although after that, for obvious reasons,
6:21
they didn' t believe me for some reason that I don' t know
6:27
to this day, I couldn' t stop. I needed everyone to know
6:30
that I had a magical friend who lived inside the closet and who, besides,
6:34
was a pretty cool monster who could defend me from existing evil. I
6:41
didn' t seem to care if the others weren' t believing me.
6:45
I guess a part of me was aware that they wouldn' t believe me,
6:49
but I still liked to talk about it. People were paying more attention
6:53
to me, even if it was for a few moments. I think I
6:57
was talking about him for a long time n n n maybe l orca of
7:00
a year, telling more and more fantastic things about his appearance, skills and
7:05
other things that only a child of that age could invent. But at the
7:11
same time, this also meant that, more rightly, the children in general
7:15
did not want to be my friends, so I became more and more lonely.
7:20
I remember one day in particular, when my cousins had been invited to
7:25
a birthday party, but I didn' t. I was sitting in my
7:29
tent thinking that if I had friends, everything would be so much better in
7:34
my life. I remember while I was thinking about it, I heard a
7:41
creak coming from that closet. Clearly a broom or something had fallen off,
7:45
but at the time I spoke to him. It wasn' t like other
7:49
times when I did it out loud to make sure anyone near me listened to
7:54
me to get a little attention or credibility. No, on this occasion I
8:01
only spoke to him, greeted him and recalled that I asked him if he
8:05
didn' t feel very lonely in there and although I didn' t have
8:09
any answers, I kept talking to him. I told him how unhappy I
8:13
was and how much I would like my real parents to take me home to
8:18
live with them. I told him a lot of things without getting any answers
8:22
from the other side of the door, but I still kept talking. At
8:26
some point I told him that it was very cool and that it would be
8:31
fantastic if I could do the things he did, like make the side or
8:35
be able to make people fly or move things with my Mind. I really
8:39
don' t remember everything I told him, but after about 15 minutes I
8:45
told him it would be great if he could be my friend. And after
8:48
that I had nothing more to say, so I was silent with my head
8:52
stuck to the wall and that' s when I heard a voice telling me
8:58
c or of course that I want to be your little friend. This surprised
9:03
me a lot, but at the same time it also scared me because literally,
9:09
the voice had come out of that closet, and not only that,
9:13
but that voice didn' t sound human at all. I don' t
9:16
know how to explain it, but it was like a dog' s.
9:18
I don' t mean it sounded like a dog was talking. It was
9:22
like those weird Internet videos when dogs try to imitate some human words, but
9:28
their vocal cords aren' t designed for that, so it sounds very strange.
9:33
It was kind of like that, but you could understand it a little
9:37
better. I remember at the time I got so scared that I came out
9:43
of the store and looked straight at the door. My heart was beating very
9:46
hard and for a moment I thought it might have been my imagination, as
9:52
everything seemed quite quiet. However, seconds after I left the store, I
9:56
saw clearly how the handle on that door was starting to spin. At that
10:01
moment I couldn' t take it anymore and went down the stairs. I
10:05
found my aunt preparing the food and although I tried to tell her what was
10:11
going on, she didn' t believe the truth. I can' t
10:15
blame her after all the lies she had told during that year about a monster
10:20
who lived in the closet. And even though I begged my aunt to sleep
10:24
somewhere else and even asked my cousins to let me sleep in her room,
10:28
nobody let me do it and I had to go back to the store that
10:33
night. I was very frightened, but finally I was able to sleep,
10:37
although at some point in the morning I was awakened by a characteristic smell.
10:41
It wasn' t a bad smell, it was quite the opposite. It
10:46
smelled like ice cream. It was like I literally had ice cream all around
10:48
me. It was a pretty unmistakable smell. I remember missing I opened the
10:54
shop close a little bit to look at, but I couldn' t see
10:58
anything. It was very dark, pure everything, but that sweet scent kept
11:03
flooding my lungs. I think I kept thinking about this for about a minute
11:07
until I heard his voice again. That gave me the creeps, although she
11:13
only asked me if I liked ice cream I was really scared. I covered
11:18
myself with all the blankets wishing that he would leave once and for all,
11:22
that he would just disappear and leave me alone. But that didn' t
11:26
happen. I heard clearly how the door to that closet opened and after that
11:31
I began to hear footsteps around my shop, but they were not common footprints,
11:37
they were not shoes, it was like cicadas. They bump into the
11:41
floor every step of the way. I was just surrounding myself and listening to
11:46
how he touched the fabric of the store, making it sound a little bit
11:50
with each touch. He asked me again if I liked ice cream. I
11:54
was close to the crying for the despair that caused me and suddenly, or
11:58
just or remained silent. He knew that he had not left, for he
12:03
felt his presence in the place, but he remained silent. After about three
12:09
minutes he told me that I didn' t have to be afraid of him,
12:13
that I wanted to be my friend and that I had asked him if
12:18
he wanted us to be friends and his answer was that yes the truth.
12:20
I didn' t know what to say at the time. I just kept
12:24
quiet and asked if I liked ice cream and what my favorite flavor was.
12:30
At that time I don' t know why, but the most logical idea
12:33
I came up with was to answer him and without discovering my face, I
12:39
told him that my favorite ice cream was chocolate flavor. He told me that
12:43
he could create all the chocolate- flavored ice cream I wanted, that he
12:48
could eat so much that he would want to throw up, and I guess
12:54
that was enough to convince a nine- year- old girl that she was
12:56
someone reliable. I remember then I took off my blankets and gave him up.
13:00
I said I' d like that. At that point he told me
13:03
to open the store for him and when I finished running completely. The closure
13:09
was out there. The first thing I noticed was his eyes shining in the
13:15
dark. They were green and, as I had described before, they were
13:18
identical to data. As soon as my eyes got used to the darkness,
13:24
I could also see that all the descriptions I had said were real for nothing.
13:30
He looked adorable. It was pretty scary. He was a demonic being.
13:35
I asked him what he was and he replied that he had come out
13:39
of my imagination that I had created him. He also told me that only
13:43
really special children could create what they imagined and told me that I was very
13:48
special. I asked him about ice cream, but he told me he would
13:56
prepare it later, although I couldn' t help but notice that it smelled
14:01
of ice cream, it literally smelled of all the flavors on the side of
14:03
the world. And as the night progressed, the truth was that I was
14:07
more accustomed to his appearance. At least it wasn' t that important anymore.
14:11
I had a great deal with him and told him how much my cousins
14:16
bothered me and that I no longer liked living in that house. He listened
14:18
to me very carefully and at some point he said yes, he wanted to
14:24
help me with my cousins. I told him that would be fine, but
14:28
he didn' t want me to eat them, because if everything I had
14:31
invented was real, he would eat human flesh. He looked at me a
14:37
little upset, but he told me that he was fine and that he would
14:41
only give them a very good scare. When the first rays of the sun
14:45
began to rise, he rose from the floor and went back into the closet,
14:48
not before reminding me that he would return. Then I told him I
14:52
was fine. I remember that was the first time in a long time that
14:58
all day long I didn' t laugh about that monster. No one questioned
15:03
me about it either. I suppose it was a great relief to my aunt
15:07
that I had already left that subject for peace while my cousins were enrolled in
15:13
a school with Morning Schedule. The school I was going to was in the
15:16
afternoon, so I practically went into school at the time they were going out,
15:22
and that day was no different. My aunt was after me after school,
15:28
because it was already dark. By that time everything seemed too normal until
15:33
we arrived at the house. As soon as my aunt parked the car,
15:39
we could see that the door of the house was open and that it looked
15:41
empty. Only at the foot of the stairs could you see some stuffed animals.
15:46
This alarmed my aunt, who ran to the neighbors' house to find
15:50
out where her daughters were, although to the relief of all my cousins were
15:54
in the house across the street, but that was not a reassuring answer.
16:02
They claimed that the monster attacked them. They mentioned everything I had said about
16:07
him, but my aunt only bothered me and told me that I had scared
16:11
them to believe those things. Almost immediately. My cousin, who was one
16:17
year older than me, showed him her arm and told her that it was
16:21
not true, that it was real, because she had scratched it on her
16:25
arm. It clearly looked like something with sharp claws scratched it. At first,
16:33
everyone thought it was a wild animal that, for some reason, had
16:37
been in the vicinity, but no one saw anything and when they looked carefully
16:42
at the house they found nothing either. My aunt took my cousin to the
16:48
doctor and they told her that it seemed like a very big animal, that
16:52
it was not something that could have caused a simple cat or a dog.
16:56
Anyone. I remember that night, while I was trying to sleep that smell,
17:03
ice cream came back to me. I was very scared and at that
17:07
moment I heard the door open and that voice told me to open the store.
17:11
I obeyed and asked him why he had caused them so much harm.
17:15
He replied that he had kept his word and that he had not eaten them.
17:21
I was pretty scared about all that. I just told him I didn
17:25
' t want him to do anything to them anymore, but at that point
17:30
he told me he hadn' t seen the best part yet and then he
17:36
started to evaporate, becoming a lot of smoke. After that he left and
17:38
I saw him slip through one of my cousins' bedroom doors. They had
17:45
decided to sleep together that day because they were so afraid that that thing would
17:51
come back and soon afterwards I heard them scream terrified. At that moment,
17:56
my aunt left her room to help her daughters. I also ran to see
18:00
what was happening and when we opened the door, we saw that all the
18:06
stuffed animals and toys my cousins had were moving on their own and laughing in
18:11
a demonic way that frozen our blood. All this while they screamed and cried
18:17
crouched in the bed, as the dolls began to surround them. At the
18:22
time, my aunt was brave enough to come in and get her daughters out.
18:26
From there. After that I could see how that demon monster materialized.
18:32
We went to a neighbor' s house and the next morning my aunt started
18:37
looking for another place to live and although they found a place, I no
18:41
longer fit with them, so I went to live with my grandmother, who
18:45
accepted me for a while and after that day I never saw him again For
18:49
a long time I thought this story was the product of my imagination, something
18:56
that convinced me that had happened, because everyone abandoned me. However, now
19:00
that I am an adult with my own children, I remembered the story because
19:07
my six- year- old son drew a picture and showed it to me.
19:10
He told me there was a monster living under his bed, but he
19:14
was a good monster. At first I followed his current and encouraged him positively
19:18
to tell me more about that monster. But what iced my blood was when
19:23
he told me that the monster smelled like ice cream and as soon as I
19:29
looked closely at the drawing, I realized that it had the characteristics of what
19:33
I had created years ago. The truth. I don' t know what
19:37
I' m going to do right now. I don' t know how
19:38
bad or good that thing is. Maybe I' ll go with some witch
19:42
or maybe a priest. I haven' t decided yet, but if there
19:47
' s any more news, I' ll send another story. Story written
