My name is Alex Warren.I was never that kind of person that believes in the supernatural phenomenons, or paranormal activity until now. here's how all of it started. I had finished another tiring day at work so I decided to take my usual stroll around the neighbourhood. I had been in a fantastic mood for the past four weeks because I just turned twenty-two last week which meant that I got fifty-five hundred dollars from my grandparents, and that's all I got for the rest of my life, But I was fine with it cause I had a job and i'm good at managing money. I was also passing all of my classes at film school . I had gotten a interview for a job with a film company and getting ready to start my career in film editing. I was also getting ready to get married to my Fiance Emma. Emma was blonde, she was 5 7', she had a great personality and sense of humor. and she is majoring in the field of biology and getting a degree in law. Now her and I usually would go on strolls together, But she had to work late tonight. so I went alone, But when I was on my stroll today I noticed an old abandoned house out of the corner of my eye. I then realized that it was the house of a family that I think moved away. I couldn't quite remember what happened to them. all I remember about the family was the son because he was really good at drawing and he would draw pretty awesome pictures for me and I would frame them and hang them on the walls in my room at my grandparents house. I then continued to look at the house and I still remember the house almost a little too well, But at the same time it seemed so vast and lost to me like an old book or artifact that you find in your house that you haven't seen in years. I couldn't remember anything about the house, But there had to be something that I remember about it if I knew the boy that lived there.  The house was breaking down and decaying, like a human body that has been deceased for many years. I then took another look at the house and noticed a face in the window at the top of the house. I sped up my walk into then a full sprint as if running away from something, But there was nothing that was chasing me. I finally reached my house and got inside as fast as I could to find Emma already home standing in the family room. "There's something really important I have to tell you Alex" she told me. "What is it honey?" I asked, while my hands and legs shook nervously to hear what she said because I was afraid that something bad would happen. She then told me that she was getting a promotion at work and got a five percent income increase. "Thats fantastic! That means we will have more income and more money to pay off stuff like the car and house payments. I'm proud, great job!" I told her, I then gave her a  hug and kiss to congratulate her on her achievement. I then walk upstairs to my room and got onto my computer to see if I had any emails from work or anything related to work, But there was only one email which seemed quite unusual because I usually get twenty to thirty emails a day. I then proceeded to opened up the email. It said "Go to the old abandoned house on a late Saturday night, there is something that needs to be seen, go inside it and look around," it read. This didn't make any sense. Why all of a sudden is this house becoming important. I then called Emma and showed her the email. "Well that seems a little odd since you usually get more than that?" she told me with a confused look on her face. We both then decided that we would listen to the email due to since the house seemed to have some kind of force pulling me back to it like two opposite facing magnets pulling together and I was really intrigued with the house and I was also hoping that I would remember the house and the family that lived there so Emma and I decided to eat dinner and then go and get some sleep and when I got into bed I immediately fell asleep, I was completely exhausted, But while I was sleeping I started having a rather strange dream about that house. I noticed myself standing in the front door of the house, I walked inside and notice a body that was tied to a chair then walking up to the body I realize in complete horror that it was the body of Emma She was tied up with rope, her mouth was taped with duct tape and her throat was slit with blood staining her shirt, pants and on the ground next to the chair . I jolted up in horror and looked over to Emma, only to see her fast asleep. I then nudged her so that she would wake up. I cracked a small smile in relief as she woke up . "What's the matter Alex?" she asked half asleep. I explained to her about my dream She looked shocked. "Alex, it was only a nightmare, go back to sleep." She said kissing me then she laid back down and fell asleep again. But there was something that kept me from falling back asleep just that image of her in my dream had scared me so much that I thought I wouldn't sleep ever again. It was about four in the morning. I sat in bed and stared at the ceiling the only noises I heard were from Emma moving in bed and the furnace turning on and off every half hour, But the only odd noise I heard was the sound of a voice, it sounded like it was saying "come to my place we can have fun, hehe." and I knew it wasn't Emma's voice because it sounded more distorted and low pitched, like a demon. I put my head under my pillow to block out the sound, But it wouldn't go away it was right in my ear and it was scream, my ear went numb and I couldn't feel anything. Then everything went silent, nothing happened for a few minutes. I didn't know if I was asleep or if I was awake. Am I dead? I had the feeling that someone was watching and studying me. I then realized that it was morning when I pulled the pillow off my head to see Emma looking at me, "Well good morning sleepyhead," she said hugging me. I didn't know what time it was or if I was even alive. I then looked over at the clock and it read twelve o'clock. it was the afternoon. I got out of bed and went to do all my morning tasked, But then I got really light headed and almost passed out while trying to get dressed in my. I managed to keep my balance and not fall over and hit the ground. I then went downstairs and I then walked downstairs to find Emma sitting at the table drinking some coffee. I then asked Emma if she was ready to go. "Alex, I have been ready to go for the past two hours," she said. I then got something to eat and put my running shoes on and got ready to go to the house that seemed to bring back memories of something, But I still didn't remember what was so unique about the house or why I remember it so well.
