The electricity streaked the sky, with an intensity that burned its light onto the retina leaving zig zag traces in its wake.

One particularly bright burst illuminated the chimneys and turrets of the old Hammond house. The sense of foreboding was palpable, but Jimmy and Sarah were cold and wet and vulnerable in the open. "Come on Jimmy" said Sarah, "You don't believe all those stories do you?". "I am cold and fed up, we could just shelter in the porchway, we dont have to go in".

Jimmy was uncomfortable with the idea having heard of strange lights appearing in the windows of the abandoned house, and eerie cries heard in the dead of night. Everyone said that the Hammond house was haunted. Jimmy did'nt believe in ghosts but could'nt help but wonder if there was something sinister, darker and more evil than a mere shadow of a former resident.

However, not wanting to appear scared in front of his new date.....he agreed. They unclasped the old gate which squeeked on ancient and unoiled hinges, and began cautiously to walk up the grass and weed covered path.........

And they enter the house.

The door closes behind them and cannot be opened.


"Good evening" a voice echoes.


"Who said that?" said Sarah.


"When hinges creak in doorless chambers and strange and frightening sounds echo through the halls. That is the time when ghosts are present, practicing their terror with ghoulish delight.

I am your host, your ghost house. Welcome foolish mortals, to the haunted mansion.

You will not be harmed, but you will not be released until you take a tour of my home.

We have so few visitors, live ones that is, Ha, ha, ha ,haa!

Our tour begins here in this, ghostly gallery. Madame Leota is assembling all the spirits who have been just dying to me you. Ha, hahaa



BTW, although Sara is able think up her response de novo. I am plagurizing "The Haunted Mansion" by Disney in a 1969 album starring Ron Howard.

I do so, however, from memory and I am not looking at any source for guidance. Considering that I was not alive in 1969, that is not too bad!

..........trembling with fear, Sarah and Jimmy felt a compulsion to follow the ghostly apparition....."Do not fear my little ones, He is not due to wake for some time...you are safe....for now&#33;&#33; ha ha ha". The hollow sound of his voice echoed around the crumbling and cobweb draped hallway, like dread.

"Come....meet the family...ha ha" Said their guide as they were propelled towards a large pair of wooden doors that creaked slowly open with a sound that reminded Jimmy of every horror film he had ever seen, just before the next victim of the resident psycho was dismembered, sliced or merely frightened to death.

Sarah and Jimmy suddenly felt a rush of air lift them violently, to throw them through the doors into the darkness. The doors slammed shut and the smell of decay and rot that had been evident only in the background before, became more pungent and putrefying. The sound of buzzing flies began to fill the room, firstly just one or two, then more and more until the intensity of the sound created a chaotic assault on the senses of the two teenagers.

And then.....they could hear it.....creaping...slithering...slowly, painfully something was inching its way determinedly towards them......



@hobbes. Sorry mate, don&#39;t know the story you are on about so will have to use my own. Have to admit to multiple horror stories in there, just not sure where they come from. Seen too many to count. :blink:
