"Dark defender"

People fake a lot of human interactions, but I feel like I fake them all, and I fake them very well. That's my burden, I guess.

I have this wooden lifesize Buddha head that i got at an old thrift store in New Braunfels, Tx. Its nice, all painted gold and has a bunch of fake gems all around it. Its pretty heavy about the weight I would say an actual head weighs. I put it up high on a nightstand in my living room next to the t.v.. Ever since i put it up my dogs kinda look at the space just above the head, in between the head and the ceiling, and they just bark. They bark and growl at it really aggressively as if theres something there fucking with them. I had to take the head down and hide it.

I have this app i downloaded onto my phone, its called the ghost radar app. It shows a radar and different color auras pop up on the radar showing you where a ghost is supposed to be. Sometimes a random word will pop up as the spirits try and communicate. One night I was in my living room and I had my ghost radar on. All of a sudden i hear my phone say, "Buddha", and at the same time a purple orb shows up on the radar, marking exactly where the Buddha head was at. I thought this was a little strange, and I was a little bit creeped out, but before I had any time to process what had just happened, the ghost radar says the word, "dark". And in just a second, all the lights in my house went out.
