It started at exactly 3:07 AM.

I woke up suddenly, not knowing why.

The room was completely dark, and everything was silent.

Then I noticed something strange.

My phone screen was on.

I was sure I hadn’t touched it before sleeping.

In fact, I always turn it off or leave it face down.

But this time… it was facing me.

And the camera was active.

I sat up slowly, my heart beating faster.

The front camera was recording.

Recording me.

I grabbed the phone quickly and stopped the video.

My hands were shaking.

I checked the recording.

At first, it looked normal.

Just me… sleeping.

But after a few seconds…

Something moved.

Behind me.

I paused the video.

Replayed it again.

There was a shadow.

A tall, dark figure standing near my bed.

I turned around instantly.

Nothing.

The room was empty.

I told myself it was just my imagination.

Maybe a trick of the light.

But deep inside… I knew it wasn’t.

I kept watching the video.

The shadow slowly moved closer.

Closer to my bed.

Then it stopped.

Right next to me.

I couldn’t breathe.

And then…

The figure leaned forward.

As if it was looking directly at me.

Not the sleeping me…

But me watching the video.

I dropped the phone.

The screen went black.

For a moment, everything was silent again.

Then suddenly…

My phone buzzed.

A new notification appeared.

I picked it up slowly.

It was a message.

From an unknown number.

It said:

“You look better when you’re asleep.”

I froze.

My entire body went cold.

I tried to call the number…

But it didn’t exist.

I checked the recording again.

But this time…

The video was gone.

Deleted.

Like it was never there.

I sat in the dark, trying to understand what just happened.

Trying to convince myself it wasn’t real.

But then…

I heard it.

A whisper.

Very close to my ear.

“Don’t worry… I’m still here.”
