More Horrors Than Walls

Chapter 1

I wake up in darkness not knowing where I am or how the hell I got here. My head aches, like I just fell down a flight of stairs. I start to get up and the sudden crushing feeling of pure dread as I realize that there is only one crack of light as I go to see where the light is coming from and I realize its from a cellar hatch, that I'm under. I attempt to open the hatch and it swings open, as I climb out of this cellar and run for the door, while I'm running I realize that all the windows are boarded up but I do not care because whoever lives here is probably the one who put me here but I reach the door and realize that whoever put me here wanted me to stay here because the front door is locked from the outside. I sprint to the back door and all of the rest of the doors that lead outside are locked as well. I decide to attempt to get my bearings and look around for  a way to escape or a tool to break the doors or even a damn light so when night hits I can see something, while looking around I find a pantry with some food, "good ,so I won't die." I say. Suddenly I hear a creak in the floorboards in the living room, I grab a nearby knife and run into the room, though nothing is there but while I'm looking around to find whatever made the noise I find a lantern that wasn't there before I take a look through the cracks in the boards on the windows and see that night is falling.As I see the sun lower beneath the forest that surrounds this house I attempt to remember how I got here but can't seem too remember what happened the night before but before I can dwell to much into it I realize I should probably light the lantern. While I am lighting the lantern I hear a far away howl from a wolf and I realize that I'm better off in here, during the night at least, but before I can even finish the thought the howl gets interrupted abruptly than I hear barking in the distance each eventually getting cut short by yelps of pain, I run to grab my knife thinking that whoever owns this place has returned to finish me off and I sit there waiting until suddenly I see a swift movement out of the corner of my eye, one of inhuman speed. but for the rest of the night I don't see or hear another thing until I pass out. I awake the next morning seeing the light through the boards and for a moment I thought it was a bad dream but waking up that morning  was a reality check. I went to the pantry to see what there was to eat, though I wasn't particularly hungry, I then muster up the courage to go back into the cellar with my lantern to see what I can find. I go down there and look only to find a well and a locked door but while I was walking out I step on something that collapses under me and I fall near a rickety ladder the lantern still up the ladder was close to tipping over so I climb up, grab it and go back down only to see a single chamber with a large eye painted in the center made with  a crimson substance. I start the climb upstairs but I feel something graze my leg while climbing but when I get up the ladder and look down I see, nothing.
