Haunting

There is an evil haunting at my house,spirits roam around as free as the breeze.Callie sees dead people ,they frightened her,now she has stopped speaking.Liza hears voices,some people think she is insane.Devlin sees images on the walls ,sometimes he laughs with them.Max talks to himself,he even answers sometimes.I am the only sane person left here,or at least i think i am.Aunt Elsie comes to visit ,she brings the ghost hunters with her,to rid the placeof evil spirits .The ghosthunters are frightened so they leave.Aunt Elsie urges me to leave with her before the evil overtakes me too.I can not let this evil take my family away from me ,I must stay and fight to the end and never give in .Aunt Elsie leaves in tears ,for she fears she may never see me again.Two years has passed and the haunting is still here .Now I am starting to hear voices everywhere.Aunt Elsie has not visited for over a year.My body is getting is getting weak and the evil is getting harder to fight.There is no longer any hope for my derranged family,so I leave quietly in the night.I whispered a sad goodbye as I left crying in the night .The house has won the battle but not my soul ,I made a new life for myself in the village with Aunt Elsie ,the devil no longer has my soul.Everynight I say a prayer for my derranged family,that one day their souls may be freed,but I would not dare go back to that house of misery.
