One of my best friends growing up was my next store neighbor, Sheridan, and we would spend all the time we could together. In her backyard was were we spent most of our time. She had a pool with a diving board- the pool went about 9 feet deep. So what we normally do is throw in a torpedo and dive in and get it in the deep end. At the center of the deep end was a drain were everything was sucked up. One day she threw the torpedo in and it landed right next to the drain. I was always the brave one so i jumped in first. I swam down trying to save my breath when i reach the bottom and got the torpedo .When i was about 3 feet from the top i felt something pull me under, like something holding my ankles. I was almost out of breath and the grip was just kept getting tighter and tighter. My friend was screaming at me yet i couldn?t under stand what she was saying. Finally after bout 2 minutes I became weak- I passed out.... next thing i know Sheridan-my friend-was standing above me yelling my name . when i came to she said that when i was under my face was filled with terror and she had never seen something as scary. She ran to get her mom but she was running arrons. Later that night I didn?t want to be alone so I asked if I could spend the night. As usual I could and when I was about to dose off I felt something around me, it felt strong but not like a humans presents. I was wayyyy to scared to open my eyes so i just sat there. i was tossing and turning to get the thing off of me, but to make it seem as I was still asleep. Then the grip got even tighter almost tighter 80?s spandex. After all my tossing and turning Sheridan finally woke up. After about 5 minutes and the grip was almost effortless I decided to open my eyes. I opened my eyes to see her staring me in the eyes. she finally says after a long silence whose was just on top of you my worst dream had come true. I wasn?t dreaming. everything that i thought was happening was real. I couldn?t believe it, I was strucken with horror that it wasn?t just a dream. we both knew without saying a word, something un humanly was in that room. we dashed out of the room and into her parents room we woke them up accidentally and we told them we had a bad dream. after that night i never went near there house or their pool, I saw it my friend saw it IT WAS REAL! Sheridan nor I had ever told anyone up until now, when we sit here typing our forever haunting story.
