Alone abandoned the house was so stark
empty so long a tale to unfold
nothing moved very unwelcoming dark
a faded sign read property sold
what they would find there no telling
embroiled within this dwelling!
Noises had often been reported from inside
the stagnant air had a foul smell
murders within always had been denied
rumored another gateway to hell
nefarious building was a real abomination
they entered with deep trepidation!
It stood like a blot on surrounding lands
as the group of teenagers stared
jointly plotting rubbing their cold hands
had to investigate a decision shared
the group of four all were aged nineteen
focused to go as eyes watched unseen!
Hesitant to cross a line held hands outside
some distance from their addresses
laughed with a perverse fun none did hide
what waited in the deserted homestead
with torches on and their cameras to hold
soon found it had become very cold!
Daringly now in the garden were glaring
a touch of arrogance in thinking
headed towards house triumph sharing
focused eyes not blinking
the four neared door it was eerily still
the girls turned pale they felt ill!
An ineffable odour made them all halt
from then their actions defined
with fortitude pushed on with assault
suddenly a tree root entwined
tightly around two fell to the ground
slime oozed from a dirt mound!
Seemed an eternity fighting an unseen foe
drained and aching escaped the trees
instantly came into their view a large crow
breathless as if their lungs squeezed
frightened and stressed glanced around
as door burst open without a sound!
Feet heavy the four wanted to turn back
the stench was in the air once more
shadowy figures rushed at them to attack
strange sensation then a mighty roar
where the spectres came from none knew
door slammed trapped a weird glow!
Backs against wall as surging green glow
preservation forced the girls to run
as they successfully bypassed the object
this adventure was no longer fun
yelling as rotten timber floor gave way
crashing to the cellar into dank clay!
In darkness tried struggling to their feet
a new sickening odour entered each nose
the lads had falling to luckily had a torch
heard a constant beat as the evil rose
scrambling up rickety stairs reached top
floor beneath did with no warning drop!
Cellar door not locked clinging in grime
eerie sounds made atmosphere sour
a pulse made it shake in rhythmic time
had released a force gaining power
something had them trapped in a tomb
as their minds it began to consume!
Still crawling energy being sucked away
floor collapsed behind and below
a blinding flash then could see light of day
death close it grabbed Jacks leg a blow
unable to help they were propelled outside
a stroke of luck but their mate had died!
The house became a fire-ball and did implode
to close the three lay bloody on earth
barely able to move towards fence then road
so hot yet relieved felt like rebirth
such awful sounds from below they just cried
horrified just a hole what evil lived inside?
One week later back in silence on the spot
where they first viewed the dwelling
nothing there but foul ooze from the plot
none recovered the trauma telling
remembering and mourning their mate
thankful it was also not their fate!
Loud rumbling from below could be heard
as remaining shrubs disappeared
the only noise now a black squawking bird
each filled with a renewed fear
another bang the ground opened wide
in a split second they vanished inside!
Had not escaped the wrath that consumed
this unhallowed cursed ground
anybody trespassing here were doomed
no bodies were ever found!
Was this the end or just the first chapter?
