Dont Go There

Post by Johnston316 »

Frank had always been warned by his parents and teachers not to go into the old abandoned house. Tales of the old house had been passed down the generations, tales of powerful magic that lurked in the darkness. But curiosity was too strong for him, and he decided to ignore all warnings and venture into the forbidden house.

He slowly opened the door, and a musty scent filled his nose. He took a few steps forward, and his eyes slowly adjusted to the darkness. He moved further in, and the walls seemed to come alive with strange symbols and paintings. Suddenly, a chill ran down his spine and he felt an unseen force pushing him back. He immediately ran out, vowing never to go back there again.

That night, he had a nightmare about the house. He dreamt of a figure cloaked in shadows that chased him through the darkness. The figure seemed to be calling his name, saying something in an ancient, forgotten language. When he woke up, he was trembling and soaked in a cold sweat.

From that day on, he was determined to never go back to that old house. He never told anyone else about the nightmare or the strange occurrences at the house. He was certain that if he ever dared return to the cursed place, something terrible would happen.

Young ones are always wanting to go inside spooky shut down buildings, but sometimes the parents are right!
