The horizon was lit by the sun as it set, the sky a beautiful gradient of red to orange, orange to yellow, yellow to the scorching hot sun. Fog slowly rolled over the hills, creeping slowly towards the church, hanging over every cold, hard headstone like a shadow. As you walk towards the large gate that is standing tall and straight, you hear and feel the dead, crumbly leaves crunch under your feet. The leaves aren't the only thing that is dead in there, but you don't know that...... not yet.
A single yet bright gaslit lamp sat in the middle of the scary yard, sending a ghastly yellow glare through the whole place. You see the shadows, looming over the place, hanging around, the fog creating pretty but frightful patterns. The church stood tall, as a light drizzle fell. A rumble thunders through the sky, the once light drizzle became buckets and buckets of water pouring down. A cold shiver runs through your spine as a single rain droplet lands on your neck. You can't help but gasp. Very quickly you cover your mouth, the place silent except for the pitter patter of the rain. Bright forks if lightning jump from the colorful but dull sky, lighting up the church as if something from a horror movie was about to happen. Little did you know, something was going to happen to you........
You reach the church, the old wooden door standing tall, even though it looked as if it could collapse on you at any moment, crushing you flat under piles of wood. When you reached out and touched the door, it collapsed, taking you down with it. After you emerged from the mass cloud of dust and pile of wood, you couldn't stop coughing for a good five/ten minutes. Once you finally got up and stooped coughing, you slowly walked in, looking around. For a while you were fine, but after a minute or two, you wish you had brought a flashlight. Sudden realisation comes to you that there is a thing called a phone. Whilst you pull out your phone from your pocket, you hear the sound of the wind, running through the minute crack in the large window, creating a ghastly howling noise.
