An <em>asyndeton</em> is a sentence that doesn't have a conjunction where you would expect it to be. A <em>conjunction </em>is a word that can put two independent clauses (or complete sentences) together. Some examples of conjunctions include the words <em>and, </em><em>yet</em>, <em>but, or for,</em> and <em>nor.</em>

Examples of asyndetons include:
- The sun was shining; it was a beautiful day.
- The stadium was packed; it was the biggest football game of the year.
As you can see, the easiest way to create an asyndeton is to use a <em>semicolon</em>, (;) which can be used to replace a conjunction by connecting two complete sentences.

Answer:
I woke up to the sound of a loud banging on my door. Weary from last night's party, I scrambled to find my glasses. The loud banging almost hurt my ears. I quickly opened the door, not knowing who or what was behind it. As I carefully pulled the door, a woman in black dress and a black veil stood before my eyes. She didn't say a word. I stood there frozen. I wanted to run, but I couldn't. Then, the woman lifted her veil and started screaming "What did you do to me?" Now, I realized, her face was covered with blood. I pushed her away and run as fast as I could. To my surprise, I fell down the stairs and I opened my eyes. I was back in my room, sweating with all my might. Thank God, it was all a dream!
