靈異故事:Was It Jack The Ripper?1(那是殺人狂杰克嗎？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，放學(xué)后我仍然留在學(xué)校，因?yàn)橐獏⒓游璧秆莩龅囊淮闻啪?。排練結(jié)束后，我打電話給母親問(wèn)她是否來(lái)接我回家，但是她說(shuō)她正在橋牌俱樂(lè)部玩牌。朋友們說(shuō)可以載我回家，但我剛排完舞，心情特別好，想自己走走，所以就沒(méi)坐同學(xué)的車(chē)。我走出學(xué)校，天已經(jīng)完全黑了，看了眼手表，現(xiàn)在是七點(diǎn)半鐘。
走了將近二十分鐘，前面是一條小巷，通往我家。大家都知道這條小巷非常危險(xiǎn)。這里即便是大白天也會(huì)有搶劫發(fā)生，很多人都遭遇過(guò)了，其中也包括我在內(nèi)。但是我還是沿著這條路走下去了，不過(guò)很幸運(yùn)此時(shí)路燈亮著。走了將近四分之一的距離，總是感覺(jué)在身后有什么東西在跟著我，所以我忍不住想回頭看個(gè)究竟。我向后望去，看見(jiàn)了仿佛是一個(gè)人影，而且看起來(lái)是那么的熟悉。他看上去身材高大，戴著一頂尖尖的帽子，身上的大衣從領(lǐng)口到下擺像一個(gè)扇面一樣伸展開(kāi)來(lái)。我定睛觀看，隨即發(fā)現(xiàn)他手里好像拿著一把長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)的匕首，當(dāng)時(shí)我被嚇得魂飛魄散。我轉(zhuǎn)過(guò)身，大踏步地向前走，但是恐怕他會(huì)追我所以不敢跑起來(lái)。不久，我又想回頭看，但是當(dāng)我再回過(guò)頭去的時(shí)候，他已經(jīng)不在那了。
