An Eerie Feeling

Twilight had never felt so ominous An eerie feeling seeped into my soul The ancient castle was overpoweringly creepy and grotesque. There was a predatory air about it I felt that it held corpses of howling, keening victims. Such bleakness filled my heart, I could barely take another step My companion whispered “You are on your own now” Terrifying me, even further. I turned, but he was gone. I heard whimpers now, which turned into crying and keening. Night was rapidly turning into a devil’s cloak. There was no other shelter, and it felt like vampires were about Thus, I took another step toward my hellish destiny. The devil himself would be afraid of this place. I walked up the steps of the castle hearing a creaking Which I knew was my heart, dying a little with each step. Something unseen was waiting at the door. I could feel it; there was a blatant despicableness And an anger. It was pure evil; I have never felt so threatened. The door opened. The choice was mine.
