It happened last Friday. It was raining and I was walking home from the cinema alone.

No one answered, but I could feel someone or something watching me. I was very scared. Then I heard a voice.

‘I am going to kill you,’ it said. Suddenly, my heart started beating faster and faster.

I had been to see the film Psycho.

I reached the crossroads and was waiting for the traffic lights to change when suddenly I heard a noise beside me.

I woke up in hospital with a broken leg. They told me that the traffic lights had malfunctioned and had caused the accident.

I don’t believe it was a malfunction. I know those traffic lights tried to kill me and I know they’ll do it again.

The next thing I knew, a car was speeding towards me and I was flying through the air.

‘Who’s there?’ I called.
