That night, i made sure to turn the mirror back and even cleaned it nicely, as well as took the tattered doll back into the house. I sighed at how the doll stares at me all the time, having that creepy smile hanging on its face.

It was ten at night and i had made sure to lock the gates properly. I was living in the woods, and i didnt want to take anymore risk. I could hear faint music playing in the house, those that could be used to put babies to sleep.

"This is crazy." I frowned as i got myself a bowl of cereal. If i had knew about all this, i would never had moved in. Judging by the amount of rules this house had, many had died staying here, and the only way to get out was to either survive all these, or to commit suicide.

Either way isn't pleasant.

I got up from the couch and decided to head to the garage. Mr Lim had told me it was a music room and his wife loved it there, so i figured i should go take a look.

"He didnt give me the key." I frowned as i fiddled with the keys, trying to find the one that leads to the garage. Thats strange. I stopped infront of the garage and fiddled with the door knob, only to realise it's not locked.

It was pretty simple. There were music instruments everywhere and a old sofa in the centre. Speakers were everywhere but the weird thing was that the walls were decorated with posters of dolls.

It had a strangely disgusting odour to the garage, and i thought it could be since the house was old. But as i walked to the old storage door at the back of the garage, i gagged at the sight of it.

Numerous dead bodies were stacked together, and there were bodies hanged on the walls, as if they were ornaments. There was a head hung on the wall and clock hands were drilled right smack in the middle of it.

Who did this horrible thing?

"This is going to be you princess. These people here are the ones who established the rules, and died because they messed with us." Jimin's voice could be heard as he snaked his arms around my waist. I shivered at his cold touch.

"And you would be next, if you dont start being careful enough." His cold breath could be felt at my neck, and i silently prayed that he would leave me alone.

He closed the storage door and carried my up before placing me on the sofa, hovering on top of me. His eyes were brown, just like how a human's eyes would be. He had a perfect face if i were to be honest. Its just those scars that masked away his perfect looks.

"So tell me, have you read the rules?" I nodded vigorously and he chuckled as he ran his fingers along my cheeks.

"You better follow it. I cant save you if you break it." He smiled before getting off me and i sat up straight away, moving further away from him.

"Scared?"

Who wouldn't be?

" N-nervous." I replied.

"Not really good to lie but I'll let it go. But aren't you a little dumb? Choosing to stay in the woods alone? Princess i would much rather be staying in the city."

"It's ni-nice here. I love how quiet this place is. And i have the place to myself." I said and he laughed.

"This place is never yours. Remember that. It belongs to thousands of people under this ground." He whispered as he pulled me close, playing with my hair. I hated how close we are and the fact that he is a spirit touching me is making me go crazy.

"W-who?"

"That princess, is for you to find out. Isnt internet a wonderful invention? Google it up." He smiled and disappeared, right in front of my face.  His old tattered doll was replaced and i stared at it before grabbing it and walking out.

This house sure holds many secrets, and im afraid I'll be dead even before i find out anything.
