The Haunting In New York

The Haunting In New York by Country Girl46 It was Halloween night, I walked around town watching the kids go trick or treating from house to house, except one house they forbid anyone to go near. I heard that ever since I was a kid, too. Since I was older, I figured what they said was just a story, wasn't true. The wind picked up and began to blow hard, leaves were all over the street, too, pumpkins were smashed, and when I stepped in front of the house, had no clue what I was getting myself into. I opened the door, I stepped in and felt my heart pounding faster, an eerie feeling I got when the door slammed behind me and locked. I got teary eyed for fear set in. Blood started to go across the ceiling, down the walls, across the floor. The windows started to shake and rattle, upstairs the bedroom doors opened and slammed. Ghosts flew by, causing my hair on my neck to rise, Shackles and chains began to rattle in the attic A witch appeared, casting spells on me, Was hard to make out what ever body was saying for there was so much static She went to tie my hands together, I looked down and screamed, it was a snake wrapped around my wrists hissing at me, my face was white cuz the blood in my face drained. As the clock struck midnight, everything disappeared, it was like it had been before. The adrenaline in me made me so very siked . Got the hell outta there and never returned. © Melanie .
