A/N: So I got this idea from HetaOni. If you don't know what that is please search it up. It will help you to better understand what is and will be going on in this story. A good place to start searching is you tube. If you don't want to look it up that's fine to and continue on with reading the story.

P.S.: Everyone is friends with each other and this is completely AU. And so no one asks they are in 5th year

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter in any way. If I did it would not be meant for children.

Hello, it's Harry Potter. Me and my friends have a little problem. You see we're trapped in one of Draco Malfoy's manors, but before I get there let me tell you how we got in to this mess.

It started when all of us, which includes, me, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Fred, George, Pansy and Draco, had a free period in the great hall. Pansy started to talk about a Malfoy Manor that was said to be haunted.

"That's not true, no manor that my family owns is haunted."

"Well, it's said that every Malfoy who's lived there has moved out in less than a week because of the strange occurrences." Pansy said.

"Like what?" Ginny asked.

"Well like the clocks not working, things breaking on their own, walls moving, rooms locking themselves, strange screaming, and a monster wondering around." Pansy continued.

"Well, lets check the library, maybe it has something that can help us." Hermione suggested. It's just like her to retreat to the library. We all went to the library and found a table while Hermione looked for the right book. She came back with a book that had the title 'The Forbidden Manor'. She skimmed most of it until she came to the page that would tell about its history.

"Here it is. The forbidden manor or the manor of clocks belonged originally to Horologium Malfoy, a clock maker. He made clocks for the wizarding world in Scotland, he also covered his house with his many clock designs. How ever he was a bitter man that looked down upon love and friendship, so on his 33rd birthday a curse was set upon him and the manor that could only be broken by the Malfoy that understood true love and friendship. Horologium lived in that house for two years longer until he was 35 and went mad with all the strange things happening that the curse brought. Most of the Malfoy family tried to break the curse but had no such luck. The only thing that Horologium Malfoy left behind that could have helped was his journal, but none have found it. Until the curse is broken, no Malfoy can live in that manor and Horologium Malfoy will continue to haunt the manor of clocks." When she finished reading she closed the book and looked at Draco.

"Well, what are you going to do?" Hermione asked him.

"We're going to that manor."

"What do you mean by we're?"

"Aww what is it Weasley, you scared?" Draco teased.

"No! It's just that I thought you would want to go at this alone." Ron said back.

"Well that wouldn't be much fun, now would it?" Draco said.

"Ok so when should we go?" Ginny asked.

"Winter break is coming up so why don't we go then?" Pansy asked.

"Ok, so winter break it is." Draco confirmed.

If only we knew just what we were getting ourselves into, we would have never agreed.

A/N: Tell me what you all think. One of my friends read all that I wrote so far (which is up to chapter 3), and said that it was both good and sad, you'll see why she said sad soon. Until next time bye!

PS- I got inspiration from the song 24 hours by Jem. Check that song out! I've been hooked on that song for days! Ok bye now.
