Somewhere, alone in an overgrown field stands an old shed.

Almost a ruin, perhaps not even a shed at all.

Graffiti covering the outer walls, but that doesn't take as much of people's attention as the darkness seeping out of it.


A shed.

Possibly not even used as one at all.

The darkness behind the broken down entrance incites people in.

People of all sorts.

From curious teens to tired elders.


A shed.

It's beckoning me with quiet voices, whispers like wind, beckoning me, welcoming me to enter.


A shed.

Falling apart and yet so dark.

It's hiding many a secret.

It looks famished.

It looks hungry.


A shed.

One step too close I hear a shriek.

Was it the creaking of the boards or something else?


A shed.

Who's to tell the amount of soul that entered to never return.


A shed.

It hides the crimson, but not the smell.


A shed.

It pleads, oh it pleads.

It pleads for you to enter.

The shed knows you're here.
