Campfire Stories

The Curse of the Table

Welcome back boys and girls to another story by the campfire from your host with the most. I do love telling scary stories this time a year besides who doesn't like a good scare this time of the year. This story is entitled the curse of the table like the two stories before this one won't have a happy ending but only death so do enjoy this tale. There is a furniture story that sells all sorts of things from tables to chairs of all sorts even couches to end tables plus coffee tables as well. There is one table that sticks out from the rest because this table is made from redwood tree a very fine table that someone took the care to make it. It has been days since the table was brought to the furniture store to be sold. One day a young man came to the store wanting to buy his mother a new table besides Mike Ellis knew the table his mother had is very old and needs to be replaced. As Mike was walking around checking out the tables that were on display as he noticed the one that is made from redwood tree he walks up to that table he begins to look at the table. Mike knew his trees so he knew this table is made from redwood tree so he asked the employee of the shop how much does the table cost because he was thinking of buying it. The employee walked towards the table with Mike waiting for him as the employee told the price as he says the table costs 200 dollars as Mike agreed to take the table. After Mike brought the table for his mother as he brings the table to her house since she wasn't home he takes the table he was going to replace outside to break it down then he brings the table in that he got where the original table was. When his mother came home from shopping she notices Mike outside breaking a table up as she went inside. The first thing she noticed was the new table as she was putting the food away as Mike walked in to help his mother with the grocerys away. Jenna Ellis thanks her son for the new table guessing it was the old one he was breaking up as Mike agreed with his mom while welcoming her for the new gift. Since Mike still lives with his mother ever since his father has died so the two have their meals together at the table. One day Jenna's brother came over to see the table that Mike bought for his mother. Jenna's brother asked them both to sit at the table he wanted to take a picture of them two at the table as he viewed the picture he took he let out a scream that was so horrifying that Jenna herself went to look at the photo as she screamed herself seeing her and her son looking like someone came in and murdered them both at the table no one knew what this meant. Since the photo was taken since then whenever both Jenna and Mike now sat at the table to have a meal unexpected pain would hit them both as they begin to throw up since after they started eating their meal but soon after they would lay in bed they would start getting the worst nose bleeds going. That wasn't the only time they felt that way it was ever time the two sat at that table soon they begin to eat they begin to get unexpected pains and when they laid down the worst nose bleed would happen. It was a month that went by that Jenna's brother had heard from her he begins to worry so he hears to his sister's home to see if everything was alright. Soon as he got to the house he noticed the door wasn't locked so he went inside unlike Jenna to not have the door locked so he starts yelling her name but no answer. He hears for her bedroom and when he got inside it looked like someone came in and killed her then he raced in Mike's room the same way he got inside he to looked like someone came here and killed them both in their beds. A week later after discovering both Jenna and Mike both dead in bed the funeral took place with family and friends attended the funeral for both. After the funeral the brother bought back the table where Mike got it no point keeping it and besides nothing wrong with the table so why not allow someone else to have this fine table so now it is back at the store while the family and store owner knows the table is cursed is why both Jenna and Mike are dead. Now the table back at the store exactly were it was in the first place waiting to be sold again as the curse lives on waiting to take more lives. That concludes this story boys and girls as I really do hope you like this story as much as I enjoyed telling you it. I do hope you come back again for another take by your host with the most Deirdre Stephenson and do bring your friends this is still plenty of room by our lovely campfire. Until we meet again and don't forget to leave the light on before going to sleep never know what lurks in the dark that want to eat you up.
