Tales from the Dark

2.

In the heart of a rural town there lay an old house. Its exterior bore witness to decades of neglect. Legend had it that the house was haunted by spirits of those who had met tragic ends in its walls. Despite the warnings of the townsfolk, a young couple tried to spend a night within it. The two guys stayed in the little living room. In the air was a strange silence, broken only by an occasional creak. When the clock struck midnight, strange things began to happen. Whispers through the halls, and shadowy danced in their vision. Doors slammed of their own accord, and all looked like whispering secrets of the past. Terrified, the couple, tried to run away, but the house seemed to twist and turn and its corridors leading them in circles. Panic set in when they realized they were trapped in. In a last try to escape, they stumbled upon a hidden staircase leading down into the cellar. With trembling hands, they descended into the darkness, praying for salvation. But what awaited them in the depths of the cellar was beyond their worst nightmares. For there, among the cobwebs and dust, they discovered the decaying remains of those who had dared to enter before them, their eyes wide with terror. And as the young couple screams echoed through the cellar, the house seemed to sigh with satisfaction, claiming another pair of souls to add to its cursed collection.
