The Mysterious House

 Some young people went out for a walk through the town, when they passed by a strange house that was in a forest, William said: Do you not dare to enter that house? But Albert replied: And why don't you go in? We will go in after you go in first.

Mmm .. well I'll go in, so you can see that I'm not scared like you two.

Mmm .. well I'll go in, so you can see that I'm not scared like you two. When William entered the house he saw that everything was dark, he saw a switch and turned it on, but when the light came on, he saw a room all dirty, abandoned, totally destroyed and with a bad smell where you feel that there is something very bad in the environment, and when he looked down at the floor, William saw some corpses all decomposed around the first floor of the house, covered in worms, but to show that he was not afraid he pretended to be brave and went up the stairs and when there, he found a scene of the most horrible and creepy nature, where a person with half of his face all destroyed and bloody.


William began to back up and he leaned on the edge of the stairs; since there was no more escape and then the man pushed him off the stairs, the boy fell dead instantly, there was no noise, so the boys who were outside did not realize that William had just died.


The boys kept waiting, but William didn't come out, so Albert and Louis decided to leave because they thought William was playing a prank on them. Hours and hours passed until it got dark and there was no sign of life from their friend, so Albert and Louis decided to look for him in the house in the forest; as a result, they entered the house but they could not see anything but in that they saw in the distance a female figure and in that Louis began to speak to the girl who was in the distance but she was getting closer and that is when they visualized that she was a maid and her clothes were full of blood, so Albert and Louis were scared and they began to move away from her but the maid began to count.


Albert and Louis recalled the story that was told in the village, “Several years ago in one night there was a servant named Mishu who lived with Count Charles Augoust, she broke a plate that was part of the sumptuous family tableware that consisted of 10 dishes, when the householder found out, he killed her and put her inside one of the walls of the house, so that no one would find her and every midnight as it was at this very moment the woman was heard counting with a chilling voice: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9, a plate is missing ”.


When they heard "a plate is missing" with that chilling voice they ran away, outside the house they saw a silhouette of a young man in the window and at that very moment he screams and hits the glass of the window; therefore, Louis and Albert didn't think twice and they moved away from the house until they reached a lake, but they didn't know that the lake belonged to the same house in the forest.


Louis approached the lake and he splashed water on his face to wake up from the assumption of dream he was living, instead Albert was afraid and ran away, a few seconds later Louis's face started to burn, and screaming he screamed HELP! .. HELP! moving from side to side, frantically, because of the pain he was going through, though it was too late because the specter of the lake had caught him .........


Tourists say that when they go to that forest to camp, they hear the cries of children in the house that is in the middle of the forest.
