It was just a big black shape between me and the stars.
They could see this by the change of the black shape he made against the stars.
Suddenly a black shape moved, the first time they had seen a sign of life out there.
A small black shape was coming toward them along the ground.
There was nothing they could see, only the black shapes of the night.
It had seemed to be a black shape, about the size of a child.
The black shape moved back along the wall and stopped outside the window of Room 1108.
The man moved, nodded, but would not look up at the black shape before him.
But all I could remember was a black shape larger than a human being.
I heard, rather than saw, the black shape from the right, almost on top of me.
