The New House

Epilogue

HAILEY'S NEIGHBORS POV

As the house next to us goes completely dark and silent, I become suspicious.

"Honey, I'm going to the house next door to see if every thing is ok"

"Ok be back soon!"

As I walk across the sidewalk and knock on the door, nobody answers.

I walk around and no lights are on.

I pick up the nearest rock and throw it at the window to break it.

I climb through and flick the light switch.

However, nothing happends.

And I hear footsteps upstairs.

And screams, yells, and glass breaking.

Completely freaked out, i sprint upstairs and look around.

Everything looks normal except that the furniture and artwork has been thrown everywhere.

Then, the voice begins to speak to me.

"Gggooo too tthhheeeee aaattticcc"

First softly, like a whisper.

Then it becomes louder and louder like a yell.

"Gggooo toooo tthhheeeee atticcc!!!!!"

Now, I'm not usually a person who isn't scared easily but this, made me want to run down the steps screaming like a little baby.

So reluctantly I walked over to the closet and opened it.

And suddenly, my legs, involuntarily start to walk me up the stairs.

I try to turn back around.

That just makes my legs sprint.

...

When I get up the stairs, the freaky voice says to "open the insulation doors and go innnn".

No.

First I'm not gonna get killed or whatever.

Second, those doors are like 2-3 feet tall so there is no way I'll be able to fit.

"..nn.nno.oo"

No response.

"NO"

I say more loudly and clearly now.

"As you wish"

Suddenly, the house supports start to sway.

All of the furniture and mini accessories the previous family had are trolling off tables and falling onto the floor.

Then it starts.

The house collapses.

As I fall, I can see a brief smiling demon face in the dust.

Or maybe I didn't.

As I look up and see many doors and couches falling above me, I realization that I'll never be sure.

WENDY (hailey's neighbors wife) POV

It's starting to get late now and I'm beggining to get worried about where Marcus is.

Since our kids are at friends houses I guess I'll go over there and see.

But what I see makes my heart stop.

Marcus is on the front lawn waving his arms and legs as if the house was falling on top of him.

But, the house is perfectly intact.

And then, he is still, except for his mouth because it looks to be whispering something.

I sprint faster than I ever have in my life and bring my ear close to his mouth.

"We warned you, now never re-enter!"

We?

But the thing that makes me assume that he is possesed, is that his eyes are now pure, leadlike, black.

And that's when I see the house falling towards me.
