It was a cold snowy December night.
I was putting up the Christmas tree, my dad was watching the news, and my mom was washing the dishes. Then suddenly I heard someone call my name.
“Susan!”I ran downstairs it was my dad he showed me what was on the news and I was shocked.
Two girls were murdered on the same night and both of them had a santa hats with sparkles all over them. They weren’t sure who did it and the police were searching for the killer. They were around my age as well. My dad told me to be careful and put me a curfew for nine o’clock.
One hour later my friend from high school called
“Hi, Susan did you see the news?”
“Yea I’m really scared though, I wouldn’t want to be in their shoes, my dad even put me on a curfew.”
“Maybe the evil elf is coming to get you. (smirks)”
“Don’t make jokes about this jack, this is a serious situation, you might get killed!”
“Okay bye.”
“Jack?” the phone closes. Well that was weird, I said to myself.
A week later we heard that a young man, around his twenties, has been murdered. And again there was a Santa hat and sparkles. I assumed it was the same guy from last week.
Who was this psycho and what did he or she want? As soon as my mum saw the news she quickly asked me to come home, so I did. Even the outside porch was unsafe now.
Two weeks later, just a few days left till the new year. We have presents under the tree, all the decorations are up and we were ready for the new year Right when we thought all the crimes were over it started again.
“Three teenagers were murdered on 27th December 2022 the three of them had Santa hats and golden sparkles on them, is the mysterious murderer back again?” the newsmen said.
I needed to risk it I had no choice, I couldn’t miss the new years eve.
There were seconds left to enter the new year, just at that moment I realized there were glitter pouring on me I could see a shadow coming towards me with a Santa hat. “BREAKING NEWS! the glitter man has been caught, he has officially confirmed that he killed all of the teenagers. And his reason was that when he was little his friends made fun of him all the time because his singing was bad, he was in the New Years Eve choir group but he was kicked out because of his terrible voice. One day he sweared to come back and give all those friends that bullied him a lesson.
