I was just you regular small town guy in a regular small town.But... When the murders started our little tight knit community was struck with fear as one by one friends and family were picked off in almost a systematic way. Days several days after Christmas, the local news told us that A family had been brutally massacred, describing how there innards were pulled out seemingly by hand and how there eyes were ripped out of there sockets and they had deep bite marks all over there bodies. they were not able to identify the killer by the DNA left in the bites because the bodies had been dead for about 3 weeks. For some reason this intrigued me so I started researching all of the evidence found without much luck though. about a week after the first murders, the new reported another murder of someone I actually knew.this was of one of my best friends, Jared and his family! I was shocked that someone I'd known since kindergarten was murdered. There was a hill near my house that had a large old house sitting upon it. The house was surrounded by a large stone wall with chunks of it crumbling off with age and vines growing up what's left of it. I thought to my self " that would be the perfect place for a killer to hide." as both murders were very close to that house so it would make sense if he were to base his operation out of it. Later that night I grabbed the sword from under my bed and the gun leaves on his night stand every night and a flashlight and made my way to the house. as soon as I made it to the porch of the house I could smell something rotting, making me almost throw up. when I walked through the door I saw... the most horrific sight I've ever seen. It was my friend Colby, with the skin stripped from his face and his large intestine wrapped around his throat as he dangled from the celling fan the sight of this made me puke all over my self and start to cry. as I walked up the stairs I saw AJ pinned to the wall by a large knife stabbed through his left lung. " Jesus Christ!" I said under my breath. when I got to the top of the stairs there was a large room to my left that had nothing but a large mirror. when I looked into the mirror I saw my reflection but it looked.... it looked almost demonic. It had blood red, glowing eyes and a smile from ear to ear with giant, jagged almost metallic looking teeth, caked in dried blood. I was frozen in fear and shock when it finally said " you can't escape." in a voice that sounded like metal crashing together. when I looked down at my hands I realized that I was out of ammo, my blade was red with fresh blood and what I thought was sweat on my hands was... fresh... blood. I ran to the mirror and threw it on the ground ad smashed it into a million pieces with my gun. I got up went home, called the police and turned myself in.
