Bathrooms- Descriptive Writing
Its frosty air makes warm breath turn to a slight translucent haze; continuos sound echo's around the glossy polished tiling covering the whole bathroom.

Being night only reflections from the window lightens the room, making silhouettes. Broken mirror shattered sharp like knives over the floor, picks up rays which dance along the window sill, moist air made it seem like a shower had been taken, letting off a putrid smell, as though something was withering away in the corner and had been forgotten about.

The shower curtain lay half hanging on the shower hook, plastic and slashed as though someone grabbed it to support themselves which they were falling.
It reminds me of the movie psycho the scene of the bathroom, the door pushed slowly open, a hand reaching up and the grasp of the shower curtain, the pure horror on her face, knife slashing.

The tap dripping is an outburst of sound stabbing the silence in the atmosphere creating a mind- driving insane sound, bringing peace when the drips stop.

My hands where sweaty, deep down inside I was afraid, the way the door, continued to stare at me, its dark, driven insanity laughing at me, like it was going to lead me into a dreaded place that I dared not to enter.

Night is so horrifying, it makes everything you question uncertain, it unravels until you think it's something more, and believe it, fear it.

So this is how I feel about bathrooms at night. People are scared of all kinds of things, but I choose to believe there is something more behind the door, a hair lifting, cruel and frightening

    Thirsty I made my way towards the kitchen to pour myself a glass of Cranberry Pomegranate juice. Sitting around what’s left of the dining room table one of its hinges obliterated merely three table legs left as a support. A branch from the oak tree near the kitchen window kept tapping against the walls and windows as the wind blows. This branch at night when the murky moonlight blooms against the massive tree meticulously resemble an oversized man with a knife trying to break into the house. I often dreaded coming down the stairs for a cup of water or juice late at night when the lights were off. The terrified image and screeches sound on the window always send me scurrying right back to my room and ducking under the covers trembling for dear…

    My room was dark, like a dark hole. I wasn’t sure about opening the closet. I was thrilled to know what was behind, but scared about finding something I might regret. I put my hand on the doorknob and slowly opened it. The closet door made a worse sound than the one that was coming from it.…

    He had crossed the lot in a beeline towards the edge of the stores, turning the corner and clinging to the walls of the building as a drizzle of rain begun. The air was humid and produced a metallic aroma. He was nearing the large cubes of air conditioning units behind the buildings, and they drowned the small noises of the swaying trees and crunching leaves. Living as he was, he had begun to pick up the noises they made.…

    As I walked closer to the entrance, my heart began pounding harder and harder. I could feel the sweat in my hands, as the time closer. Walking into the first room, I was grabbing my dad’s hand. I could feel my hands sweating almost like Niagara Falls. I tried to keep my eyes closed, but it would just make it worst. I slowly began to open them, and the creepy actors were everywhere. They yelled, and ran, all over the place. My fear just got worst.…

    If light represents goodness, than logically darkness symbolises evil, the audience feels this as a dark spot is revealed on the curtain, which slowly grows larger and larger, showing that the danger is increasing as does the size of the darkness, this is what builds the suspense as consciously the audience is seeing a dark figure approach while their subconscious minds register the symbolism causing twice the tension as would be caused without the rest of the scene. The bathroom light is also visible from this angle and causes the shadow to appear that it is approaching the light.…

    Throughout the course of our childhood, we have all been told frightening stories. Whether those stories were about “The Boogey Man” or “Bloody Mary” or even an original story, they all served one purpose, to frighten us into behaving. I really wish I had listened to my mother, I really wish I hadn’t tried to be the moron I was, if only I had experienced the slightest ounce of fear to prevent me from entering the woods, especially at night, when evil is said to be at its strongest.…

    All I could see were slow paced bodies walking pass me on the long everlasting hallway, unclear faces, and strange voices echoing in my head. My headed was bottled by all the blurriness and I was waiting to finally wake up. From the little knowledge I had left, I knew if I could find a bathroom I would be to splash water on my face to help snap me out of the large fog that I was trapped in.…

    My thoughts are invaded by the sound of heels coming down the hallway and I begin to panic and think to myself “Is she coming for me?” or “Is she coming for someone else” but I try and calm myself and show that I am not afraid, when inside I am terrified. The heels continue down the hall and I harden myself then they stop, I think they are outside my door. “Open this one” boomed the voice softly; I’d recognise the voice anywhere, it’s the Madame.…

    Locking the door behind me, I shuffle to the couch. It’s torn up quite a bit and smells like urine, but I don’t care that much. It’s better than nothing. As I flopped down I heard Rachel scurry off to the other side of the room. After a few seconds she came back with a bandage and rubbing alcohol.…

    There’s an overwhelming sense of fear. It is as if there were eyes watching me. I begin to get out of the bed. I’m going to open the closet but I don’t want to. I know something bad is going to happen. But I open the door and there’s nothing, but it’s too dark to actually see anything. I lean further into the closet. It’s colder in the closet than in the room. I feel a hand pull my hand off the knob and drag me further in. I fall and I keep falling. I don’t stop falling till I wake up, and it gets colder as I fall. I feel my blood freeze in my veins. It's like the dream’s…

    A loud pounding on the door woke me. I rolled out of my bed and crashed into the floor. It sounded as if the hinges were just about to fly off of the door. Afraid of what could be at the door, I knew that I had to open the door, because whatever was at the door was not leaving anytime soon. I bolted to the door, and slowly started to turn the door nob.…
