The events that happened in this story are true...

Alright this is really hard for me to talk about because it gets me very depressed...

When I was about 9 or so, I was having a sleepover with 4 of my friends, we were all in my room telling ghosts stories around a lit candle, although we were young, they were pretty scary at the time, so we all got tired and went to sleep. Late at night i woke up to the sound of something at my window.. the shades were down so i couldnt see anything, i got out of bed cautiously and very slowly peeked out of the corner of my window and saw a man, just standing outside, he was wearing a black trenchcoat and smoking a cigar, althogh i couldnt see his face i knew he was looking at me.. the firey orange flames burned deep into my eyes as i stared out the window into the darkness at this man.. "BOO!" my friend said as he gave me a shock by grabing my shoulders, I gave a loud shout and said "WTF! Dont scare me like that!" "what are you looking at" he replied and i looked out the window to see the dark night, that was it.. i said nothing but i wanted to get a little bit of air and go outside, although what i really wanted to do was investigate the scene more closly, my friend agreed with the idea and joined me with a fresh air brake.. we soon went outside and i rushed to the spot where the man was standing, my friend asked me waht i was doing and i said i want to be here, for some reason it was like a forcefull thing, i couldnt help it i just stood there and stared into my window where the man was standing, i looked into my window to find one of my friends staring at me, in his watchfull eyes i could see a orange flame, my friend said lets go in, but i couldnt look away, my eyes were glued into the the orange flame burning bright in my friends eyes, i then passed out on the lawn, i woke up in my room the next morning, my friends were all gone.. my mom then came into my room and asked me if i was alright, yea i replied why? she said "i found u in the lawn this morning, do you remember anything?, no i repiled what happned" she said that a someone had kidnaped my friend i was with in the lawn, he left a note, and it said this "in this world there are people who take actions and people who recieve them" and at the end there was a chark burn from a cigar, i sat there in shock with the note in my hands, she then said, im so sorry, but thats not all we found, i asked her what else happned last night, she said she came into my room this morning and found my friend dead cold on the floor by the window, he had been scared to death, i sat there crying and said and josh? (he was my friend that stayed asleep during this whole thing) she said he went home early this morning, we called the police as soon as we could and the parents have been notified..

And to this day, i still have reacurring dreams of the man in the darkness outside my window, i have been diagnosed with insomnia and i have had problems sleeping for the past 8 months

i would rather not have people email me with questions on this story because again, it makes me depressed but i am happy to get this off my chest
