When they say ignorance is bliss, they mean it. Life is much easier when you don't know all of the things that exist in this world. I was happy, well as happy as I could be without any friends, thinking that there was not life after death. I wish I still believed there was nothing.
I never believed in life after death, I never even gave any thought to it. When my older sister died in a car accident five years ago, I didn't think about where she went when her heart stopped beating. I was just sad she was gone, and in time it began to hurt less. And then the thought still evaded my mind. Death was never a matter of life for me, it was just happened at the end of life, and then there was nothing. No life after.
That's what life was for me, life was a prefect lie and death was the menacing truth. That was until my mother moved away from my alcohol and child abusing father to a creepy manor on the outside of town four states over. Until the shadows watched me every second of the day, and until I started seeing them in my sleep. Until I knew the truth behind what happened in the manor.
