I read Strieber's book back when it was published and was suitably terrified. I was much more of a believer in the mythology of UFOs/bigfoot/cryptozoology so I took the book at face value. But, in reading your summary, it stuck me that Strieber's experience feels like Bipolar 1 psychosis. Without going into detail, I can say that I've had far less intense versions of that manic paranoia. I'm gonna need to reread the book.
This was so creepy. Right when I read that the small being was closing his door, a creaking sound emanated from somewhere in my house!! I think it was my ice maker, but still! Great job portraying these events.
