The light grew brighter as she walked towards the door,the door was closed and the light was coming from the weird runes on the door. She had woken up that night to get something to eat like she always did,this habit started when she was 14 and she had continued it for the next two years and the midnight snack was always coconut.

She was almost done with a piece of coconut when she heard a weird buzzing sound coming from the basement,"Don't go Ellie,you should know that its dangerous to go towards the sound,it never ends well",but despite thinking that she was still curious and so she decided that she would check it out. But she was torn between choosing to finish her coconut before checking out the sound or checking it out first,for some reason she chose the latter,"well this is a first,I don't know what's down there but you better be worth leaving my coconut alone and begging to be eaten".


As Ellie walked down the stairs to the basement different thoughts clouded her mind,"This feels just like those horror movies where everyone dies,maybe I shouldn't do this,Mom and my brothers are asleep upstairs,what if after I get killed,the killer goes for my family too",Ellie thought."Then why are you still climbing down STUPID!!!",said a voice in her head which she was used to hearing,She always thought it was her conscience speaking but recently it had started to feel like the voice was a completely separate person that seemed to enjoy insulting her.

she was almost at the bottom of the stairs when she saw a light,she was scared and wanted to go in the opposite direction but she didn't,instead she followed the light and it led her to the door with the runes."why is there a door in the basement?",Ellie thought while still moving towards the door. She was about to open it when the voice in her head startled her by saying,"I'm saying this for the last time go in the opposite direction", ,"Oh shut up and just let me do what I'm going to do",she shouted,starting to realize that the voice was not her mind's but she decided to deal with it later. It felt like something was pulling her towards the door handle.
"Are you going to open it or not?,stop standing there like some statue and do something",the voice said,this really irritated Ellie,she opened the door to shut the voice up.

What she saw at the back of the door was scary enough to make her shiver."what are you doing,STOP IT!!!!"....
