Haunted Manor

Author's Note: I once did a poem on this song. It was about Stephano going after the Flying Dutchman. Ended up with a great rhyming story that ended with the Dutchman getting spooked.

Entering the Haunted Dutchman's Manor, Alfred was determined to find his way to the final boss: The Flying Dutchman himself. Bells strangely tolled, as if it was close to the next hour or if they were just haunted. The ghosts that watched on - sang an eerie tune. Alfred walked a bit faster as if a strange chill had just gone down his spine. Entering the next room, he was suddenly spooked by a ghost that wanted to jump at him.

Alfred proceeded to head into a sprint as if a gun had just gone off for a race. Mysteriously, many pairs of eyes had appeared - as if vampires and normal bats were secretly hiding in wait. Alfred's heart beat much faster than normal, making him breathe faster while running. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead. As soon as he thought there was a door up ahead - he quickly jumped back and landed on his bottom as another ghost flew out at him - causing him to scream once more before getting to his feet and continuing with this journey into the next room.

He walked quickly as if he needed to get out of there now. But it felt as if they were going to prevent him from all of the obstacles they kept throwing at him. Climbing over them - Alfred soon found himself in an area full of large food. But just as he thought he could have a rest and maybe have a nibble... the food suddenly sprang to life - scaring Alfred in the process as he screamed like a girl as he ran even faster.

And strangely the area felt like it was tilting, making him trip and tumble into the next area. He stumbled across, trying to find a way out. He no longer wanted to take on the Dutchman, as he was now a terrified mess. Screeches of the ghosts could still be heard as he clambered across the area before finding a ladder and emerging onto the deck.

Knowing that he must get out of there - Alfred used one of the ropes to abseil down the ship before running away. The Flying Dutchman watched on and laughed - knowing that NO ONE could ever survive his scary challenge, as most would turn into waterworks or scream too much by the very end.
