A couple weeks later, we were sitting in our camper finding places to do scary videos or overnights. One whole day passed away of just planning and getting info on these places; upon searching we found an abandoned news station, a huge, heavily watched mansion, a haunted hospital, a prison, a supposed haunted orphanage, and a skyscraper called the nylex towers. In the news station, we almost got caught. The maison was pretty cool but hard as hell to find. Haunted hospital was freaky. The prison cost us a few hundred dollars for bribe but it was fascinating. The towers only confirmed my fear of heights. But the haunted orphanage was scary as fuck. I've been doing haunted and scary stuff for years and it hadn't scared me. Not even haunted houses out cornmazes scared me as a kid, however this did. I've done a few haunted videos with them but this one definitely takes the cake. So one random day I was laying around, checking twitter or insta and they all had the idea to record another video at the next place on our list. So not thinking I'd be scared, I agreed. We set the camera up for record, I fixed my hair some and stuck my hands in my incredibly oversized hoodie. Corey stuck his face in front of the lens and pressed 'on'. "What? Oh that's a camera? Ha! I thought it was a fucking picture." And moved back. I laughed, Sam and Colby smiled, Elton just leaned his elbows on the counter. We rambled on and made fun of Corey and Elton for hurting their ankles. Sam finally did the intro, with me in the back doing a little dance for "enthusiasm".  "We're going to a haunted boys orphanage •-•." There was a silence. "...were they didn't have parents and they died". I looked at Sam in horror, "Sam, what the fuck." "Yeah...."
Cut to the sneaking in part. We wondered around a dark forest for a little while and found it relatively easily. The first thing we saw walking in was evil graffiti and upside down crosses. 'Not one of these places again.' I thought. It was severely burned and collapsed. "You know how I was joking this place was haunted, I wasn't tryna say anything but either my shirt was folded and unfolded or something touched my shoulder." Corey said nervously. "Yeah I've been feelings like that too." Elton said. "Shut up bro. Shut up." Corey said even more nervous. "It just feels eerie in here." I said trying to ease them. After a few minutes Corey heard a noise that Elton pointed put could've been an animal. A couple minutes of exploring went by and Elton stopped dead in his tracks. "What?" Colby asked. "Don't tell me you can't hear that? You seriously don't hear that??" Elton asked, his voice quick. I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. "It sounds like an organ." "Organ?" Colby asked as confused as I was. Elton tried to explain but Corey for freaked out by something. He moved over to Elton and kept walking but slow, we kept a close step behind him. "You guys seriously don't hear an organ?" Elton asked again. We shook our heads. We stopped and listened for a sec; there was a loud bang upstairs. All at one once we turned and ran out of the cramped corridor we were in. A few minutes of rambling went on about the organ. This is when I really started to believe this place wasn't right. I looked to my left and through a window I saw a little boy dressed in earlier 20th century clothes. We was almost transparent and had a slight glow about him. My heart immediately sank and I took a few step's back. I felt my face drain of color I took too many steps back and ran into Colby. I turned around quick and put my hands on the back of my neck, "sorry... sorry." I whispered. He looked worried, "what's wrong? you look like you just saw a ghost." He whispered. "I did..." I whispered, my voice cracking in fear. "Where??" He looked around. I pointed through the window. "There." My eyes started to water; not because I was scared but because things like this remind me of my grandfather passing away. He looked back down at me "you look like you're gonna cry." "No im good." I pushed my hair over to the other side. "Are you sure? We can go-" "no no I font want to ruin the video. I'm sure." "The video doesn't matter, you and your safety matter more than the video." This made me smile a little and m eyes water more because he cared that much. "I'm good but thanks Colby." "Just making sure you're okay." We went back to listening to the others. Not much else was going g on just Elton still hearing the organ, everyone being paranoid and Sam finding a spray paint of the grim reaper. "Yo there's actually someone here." Colby said nervously. So we were quiet for another minute and whispered extremely quiet. "I'm about to jump out this fucking window bro." Corey said, actually sounding like he was considering it. "You can't jump out a window, you have a sprained ankle." "I will break the other one if I have to survive." There was a single desk, an old bike and a creepy poem on a wall. "Pain... great pain with no gain. The little boys crying I'm the rain. Christianity and cruelty ruined their lives" Elton read it aloud. "Oh shit..." I said, "that's deep" "Is no one putting together that it says 'crying in the rain' and its been raining as soon as we got here and it hasn't been raining all day?" Corey pointed out. "Well its just the weather-" I said, not believing it was connected. I was ignored. "Dude your eyes are watering right now." Colby pointed the camera at him. "It's because I'm freaking the fuck out that's why bro." His voice sounded scared. They were deciding whether to check out the upstairs when Corey freaked and  are gasping. "It was *he stated mimicking an organ playing*"  No one else heard it beside him and Elton. "Like that?" Colby asked, hearing a noise.  "that's a plane..." Corey responded. I giggled. "Let's... get the fuck outta here." Corey said, really jumpy. Everyone else ignored his proclamation and wanted to explore the upstairs. Colby and Sam volunteered to go upstairs. "Please be careful." I said to them before they went up. They came rushing back after a few minutes.  "Elton? Elton!" Sam called. "Was that you guys?" Elton asked. "No that was you right?" "We're hearin shit down here bro." Corey said shakily. They came down and all of a sudden I felt like I was being watched and I had feeling of uncertainty. "We just heard a big shatter." Sam said. They ask sounded like they were getting frustrated. They discussed what was going on Corey turned back  look at elton and freaked out again. "What?" Sam and I asked almost simultaneously. "I thought I was a leaning up against the wall!" Corey grabbed his elbow. "Something was pushing against my fucking arm!" "Go go go go." Colby said. "No one was touching you Corey. No one was touching you." Sam said still sounding frustrated. "Go go go. I don't wanna sit in here." As soon as he stepped foot out of the front door and into the grass, there was a loud crash inside. There was a cloud of cussing as we ran toward the fence. "He can't run help him." Sam said pointing the camera at the building. We helped Corey jump the fence and walked fast toward the camper. We walked through the neighborhood and all of the houses surrounding the wood we just came out of were for sale. We rushed back to the camper and what looked to be security was turning a corner and coming back down the street towards us. They discussed everything that happened and I just sat on the bed and thought about the little kid. We lightened up to do the outro and I went straight to bed to try to forget everything that just happened. I shared a bed with Colby because there was 2 beds and a couch. I climbed over the wall of pillows I made as a joke and got comfortable. However I had terrible nightmares.
