Something shadowy in the doorway

I pored myself a cup of cocoa, and settled back in the armchair by the fire, waiting for a sound that heralded my fathers' return - from wherever he had disappeared to. It wasn't long before the flickering fire, the sweet coco and the mowning wind began to have a lulling effect on me. I must have drifted off - because suddenly I started, eyes wide open, and very, very aware that something was wrong.

The fire had died, and now only a few embers glinted in the dark room. The wind had stopped it's sinister howling - silence greeted me. My sudden awakening had coursed me to slosh the dregs of my cocoa down my jean's. As I rose, however, my eye caught sight of something by the door-way to the kitchen. I froze like a statue. Because what I saw seemed impossible... incredible... inhuman.

My mind raced through the ancient books and manuscripts that my father and I had poured over these last few months - and now - unbelievably - I was facing the sauce of are fascination. A low growling began to fill the room... and the hair's on my neck prickled. I wanted to move - but I new that if I so much as breathd, the consequences could be abominable...

Goodness - what is the thing she has spotted by the doorway? It sound terrifying - even scarier than the hideous mistakes that litter that passage!
Do your detective work and email me your answers by Friday 20th November. The best answer wins web exposure.
