The Gothic structure earned its name as the spookiest estate in America. So people would say and I agree it might as well have been a castle for how big the building is as well as the land that surrounds it. I look to the woods that surround the estate. You could easily get lost in them. That's why the first one to three cases were closed but now there are far too many suggesting there is something more sinister at play than a simple mistake in direction.

I sniff, 'this wasn't fair, I'm not ready to say goodbye 'I bend down grabbing my flint and steel, and with a deep breath I spark the hay; it only takes one time, and it's up. I straighten before leaning over and kissing her head I see a teardrop stain the sheet. Sniffing I stand back as the fire reaches my mother, as it engulfs her, I feel my heart engulfed with the same fire but a fire fueled by not a flint and steel but with hatred and the need for revenge. The two things I thought wouldn't happen but as I watch my mother's body become one with the air and sky. As I watch her become smoke. As I watch her body become nothing but ashes, I feel my heart do the same and if mine is now ashes so will the bastards that did this.
