灵异故事:Was It Jack The Ripper?1(那是杀人狂杰克吗？1)
It was in the middle of winter and I was staying after school to rehearse for a dance production I was in. When it had ended, I asked for my mum to come and pick me up but she was at her Bridge Club. My friends offered me lifts home but I said I would walk, being in the active mood. I walked outside and it was already really dark. I looked at my watch and the time was 7.30.
I walked for about 20 minutes until I came to the alleyway that lead to my house. This alleyway is known to be quite dangerous. Many people have been mugged down in broad daylight, including me. Anyway, I started walking down the alleyway, and luckily the street lamps were still on. As I was about a quarter of the way down it, I had a sudden urge to look behind me, being kinda paranoid about things. When I looked behind, I thought I saw the figure of a man. He looked strangely familiar. His silhouette showed a top hat, a coat which fanned out at the top and bottom and he appeared rather tall. I looked closer and fear swept over me as I saw what looked like a long knife in his hand. I turned around and started walking faster, being careful not to run as he might chase after. It wasn't long before I had another urge to turn around, and when I did, he wasn't there.
那是隆冬的一天，放学后我仍然留在学校，因为要参加舞蹈演出的一次排练。排练结束后，我打电话给母亲问她是否来接我回家，但是她说她正在桥牌俱乐部玩牌。朋友们说可以载我回家，但我刚排完舞，心情特别好，想自己走走，所以就没坐同学的车。我走出学校，天已经完全黑了，看了眼手表，现在是七点半钟。
走了将近二十分钟，前面是一条小巷，通往我家。大家都知道这条小巷非常危险。这里即便是大白天也会有抢劫发生，很多人都遭遇过了，其中也包括我在内。但是我还是沿着这条路走下去了，不过很幸运此时路灯亮着。走了将近四分之一的距离，总是感觉在身后有什么东西在跟着我，所以我忍不住想回头看个究竟。我向后望去，看见了仿佛是一个人影，而且看起来是那么的熟悉。他看上去身材高大，戴着一顶尖尖的帽子，身上的大衣从领口到下摆像一个扇面一样伸展开来。我定睛观看，随即发现他手里好像拿着一把长长的匕首，当时我被吓得魂飞魄散。我转过身，大踏步地向前走，但是恐怕他会追我所以不敢跑起来。不久，我又想回头看，但是当我再回过头去的时候，他已经不在那了。
