SOLVED. Short Story: Took ~2 hours for me to read, man has entity/creature living under his bed that haunted his father and then him. He gets arrested for the entity's actions, and it lives under his jail bed as well.

This guy is essentially living with this weird entity under his bed. Turns out when he was younger his dad was arrested for (ahem🔪⚰️) his mom but it was actually this entity.

Now this guy is older and he had a one night stand and this girl gets 🔪⚰️… he ends up going to a hardware store for supplies (that make him look 100% guilty btw) but they’re to capture and finally destroy this entity.

Anyway I think he ends up arrested anyway and this thing now lives under his jail bed.

This sounds like Ankle Snatcher It's a Amazon Originals Short. Creature Feature series.

Yeah, Maria's right. That's definitely Ankle Snatcher by Grady Hendrix.
