Dark Cloaked Figure

I was laying in bed playing a video game when I heard 3 loud knocks on my door. I could have sworn everyone had left my house already to go to my brothers 4th grade graduation. But I said "Go away please".

About 5 minutes later, the sound of someone walking around upstairs. (I was in my basement) I called my dad and he said he wouldnt be home until later. So I crept upstairs with my 45 and yelled "I am armed and I will fire if you do not leave!" No answer just more steps. So I gained all my bravery and cut the corner ready to fire, but no one was there. Just my empty house.

So I went to bed. But ever since then I've had dreams of a dark cloaked figure, similar to the grim reaper, but without bones or the sickle. Twice now I've seen him or her at the foot of my bed. If you have the same problems, put salt in all four corners of your room and burn a black candle to absorb negative energy. I don't know if this entity is evil but he just watches me.
