Chills



Estimated reading time — 2 minutes

These. Damn. Chills! I don’t remember when they started, I just remember having them…always having them. They’re the reason why I always wear layers, even in summer. Why I sleep with so many blankets. Why when I’m told to turn the heating down because the temperature of my room rivals a sauna, I never can. I tried to figure out a pattern to them, to see if they were triggered, but I soon gave up. They didn’t come in intervals, they didn’t come on certain days or hours, they just came. It didn’t matter what I was doing either, even in my sleep the chills came and woke me. Oh yes, my parents pulled the usual “Maybe the doctor can help.” Well, at least he tried. Everyone could tell when they happened, I’d shiver, maybe twitch, sometimes I’ll jolt, kind of like a spasm, but it’s only ever brief. But ever so obvious, that I just had a chill.

The most annoying thing about these chills, is that they don’t feel like chills. O, I’ve been cold before, I’ve felt the need to cross my arms around my chest and hold on to whatever warmth was available as the cold seeped in to my core. They don’t feel like that. No, if anything, they feel like stroking. One, long, bony, smooth, icy cold and almost metallic-like finger, stroking down my spine in a mocking show of affection. That’s what they feel like. And sometimes, they feel like more. Like something is breathing down my neck, or a chest pressed against my back and I’ll quickly turn to look-
But there’s never anything there…but the chills…

The chills are there.

Tauntingly gentle.

Driving me insane.

Because it’s as if the chill is always there.

Out of sight but always near.

  1. This had an okay body, but the intro was kinda bad. The end was anticlimactic. It was a good idea, but you could have pulled it off better.

      It describes you because you are being stalked and you only know it subconciously, and the author of this piece is writing this from your imagined perspective. Just a guess.

  2. That gave me the goosebumps…….they always come when i read something creepy and very scary like something was putting something cold down my spine in some kind of line. i guess that the goosebumps that you’ve been having all your life is that someone has been haunting you all your life now im no expert but you should put some kind of electronic voice phenomena (EVP) and see what they say………..Record it and ask questions and if a ghost replies to your questions then you’ll know that you’d had the goosebumps

    1. If a living creature gets close to my back it tingles I’m not lieing its weird only a living creature it doesn’t work if you touch it
