A Chilling Reminder: The Haunting Note on the Baby Monitor

At 4 a.m., I woke up to a singing voice on my baby monitor. It repeatedly said, “Hush now, baby, I came for you.” We were alone. I ran to my baby’s room, and she was asleep. I tried to calm myself, saying it was a bad dream.

But as I adjusted her blanket, I noticed something behind her arm. My blood ran cold when I found a note that said, “Make sure to take care of your child more!” I felt sick to my stomach and froze with the note in my hand.

Hours later, I fell asleep in that position. When I woke up, the note was gone. I searched everywhere; it had vanished. I still wonder if it was all a bad dream, but I know for certain it was not—everything felt so real.
