Carl and his girlfriend went to the movies on Saturday. As they watched the movie on the screen, Carl noticed in his left peripheral vision that a strange-looking man had entered the theater, walked down the aisle, and was now standing at the end of their row of seats. 

The man was wearing a coat and hat that hid his features. His eyes were clearly visible, but they were still strangely ambiguous. It seemed to add to his alienness and menace. Instead of sitting down, the man just stood there and looked at them. Both Carl and his girlfriend felt a strong sense of fear associated with this stranger, and his anxious gaze. 

As Carl tried to bring his attention back to the screen, his girlfriend felt more and more nervous. finally hiding his face in Carl's hand. 

For a few more moments, they tried to ignore the stranger. But in the end, at her insistence, Karl turned his attention to the place where the man was standing, but now the man was gone. 

Karl stood up and looked around, but there was no sign of the man. He ran to the lobby, but it was empty.

Carl and his girlfriend had gone to see a movie on a Saturday. While they watched the movie playing on the screen, Carl noticed in his left peripheral vision that a strange looking man had entered the theater, walked down the aisle, and was now standing at the end of their row of seats. The man wore an overcoat and a hat that in such a way as to largely conceal his features. Clearly visible, but still strangely ambiguous, were his eyes. These seemed to add to the air of strangeness and menace about him. Rather than sitting down, the man simply stood there and stared at them. Both Carl and his girlfriend felt a powerful sense of fear associated with this stranger, and his unsettling stare. While Carl attempted to return his attention to the movie screen, his girlfriend felt herself becoming more and more unnerved, eventually hiding her face in Carl’s arm. For a few moments longer they tried to ignore the stranger. But finally, at her urging, Carl turned his attention to the location where the man had stood—but now the man was gone. Carl stood up and looked around but the man was nowhere in sight. He ran to the lobby but it was empty.
