A very small village was being terrorized during the years. The women had been disappearing every year without stopping. The villagers had a whole day rotation securing each corner of the village. Still, the women kept disappearing with no trace left. They were so scared they built a bunker for the women to hide and every time any of them came out they had to go with two men until they returned. One day a stranger arrive at the village. He presented himself as a priest. He told everyone that he could end the disappearance of their women. He explained that the village had been cursed. The villagers were very frustrated and desperate to try anything. The priest asks for the villagers to build a church for him and to choose ten women to devote their lives to God. The church had to be finished by November 11, 1511. They had a full year. Miraculously during the construction of the church, not even one woman had disappeared. The church was done three months before the deadline. The ten women were selected. The priest told the villagers he had to go into seclusion with the women to teach them his ways. He instructed the village that they must not disturb them and that on 11-11-11 he would lift the 500 years curse from the village. The villagers accepted and waited until the day the priest told them. A whole year had passed and it was the first in ten years where none of the women had disappeared. When the day came 11/11/11. The church began to emit strange noises from inside. Loud screaming was heard. The villagers ran to the church to enter but the door was closed. They saw smoke coming out and could hear the women inside suffering. The villagers attached their horses with ropes to the door and forced it open. The church was on fire. The women were all tied at the altar. The priest was speaking a strange language. The villagers could not get closer because of the fire. The villagers started bringing water to turn off the fire. The priest kept doing his ritual. One of the villagers struck him in the chest with an arrow. The priest shouted, " Is too late I am immortal now". They kept striking him with arrows. The priest fell to the floor and shouted "You are all fools you all will die". The priest started speaking an unknown language again as the time hit 11:11 p.m. The fire got more intense and the villagers inside the church were trapped. The church burned with the priest, the women, and some of the villagers inside.
Five hundred years passed. It was November 11, 2011. A boy was born at 11:11 p.m. The boy had a very strange childhood. He spoke with an imaginary friend. As he grew up he said to his friends that he could see someone with him every time the clock hit the eleventh minute. He went to therapy and got rid of clocks and watches around his home. He started to feel normal and had his best years in high school. He became very popular. He wanted to celebrate his 18th birthday with his friends. His mom allowed him to get 10 friends to spend the night after his party in the family cabin. They all settled in the cabin at 10:00 p.m. The boy was very tired so he asked his friend to wake him up before midnight. His friends agreed and left him in his room. The boy hears someone calling him. He wakes up. It's all dark.
Boy: Who are you?
(Boy): Thanks for bringing me back.
Boy: Where are my friends?
(Boy): I am the only one you need.
The boy turns the light on but he sees no one in the room with him. He sees the clock. The time is 12:12. He gets mad at his friends for not waking him up. He goes out of the room. He goes to the living room and sees his friends tied up. They are all dead. He ran to the bathroom to puke. He sees he is all bloody. A message in blood on the mirror says "You did it". He smells smoke. He goes out and sees a fire starting inside the cabin. He smiles and says "Finally I'm back".
The fire department was called. They found ten people dead inside the cabin. They searched for the birthday boy but he was never found. After the incident, women started disappearing in the nearby towns. None had been found.
