What did I see this morning?

Good morning all. I want to clarify on what I saw this morning. After I woke up, about an hour ago, on the corner of my eye, I saw a short black figure right next to my bed, it took two steps south parallel to my bed, and disappeared. The figure was about 3.5 ft tall and its face and body were dark and black.

Night terrors. I dream with my eyes open and see giant mechanical spiders. This is common. Get more sleep and less stress.

Another possibility is a shadow that appeared to be moving to you as you had just woken up and were still adjusting.

it was probably this guy.... he's been haunting me as well. I suggest getting in contact with a priest. You must act quick if you want to rid this "demon" from you life before it does serious damage.
