A/N: Hello!! Yes, the start of this is a bit weird and all, but I came up with this idea quite some time ago and was just now able to start it! Hope you like it!!!
As desolate as the old farmhouse was, everyone within the vicinity knew that it had not been abandoned completely. Deep within the weathered and tattered walls was a presence of true and pure evil whose reign of chaos was inevitable.
The Hewitt family who had lived in the house for generations was thought to be gone forever; the last of them either dead or had disappeared. The last of the family who'd lived in the house all ended up dead, except one who had vanished.
Old Charlie Hewitt, Sheriff Hoyt as he was known, was killed by a biker gang in 1976, Luda May sank into depression after Hoyt's death and had gone out and never returned. The old man had died of a heart attack just weeks after Luda May's disappearance. As for Thomas, he continued to live in the old house for several years, sitting by the front window waiting for Luda May to come home, never giving up. In 1979 he was killed by a truck driver as he was walking home from the slaughterhouse. The truck driver who recognized Thomas, ran him down at the end of the driveway.
With what remained of his physical strength Thomas had dragged himself into the house and died at the top of the stairs to the basement. His body was found by the police after the small town began to re-emerge, the front side of him torn from the impact of the truck, part of his face smashed, and a trail of blood leading from the edge of the driveway to Thomas' mangled body.
Once it was declared that the Hewitt family was gone, the town began to prosper more than ever. It was finally in 1983 that the town decided to tear down the old farmhouse to rid of the horrors that went on deep within its bowels, but the team who'd gone in to inspect the house vanished.
Being close to an area full of thick trees the town was convinced that the men had gotten attacked by a wild animal who'd decided to use the house as refuge. Later on another team was brought in to finish the inspection and they too disappeared. Only this time passerby's reported strange happenings at the house, things nobody could explain.
In an attempt to solve the disappearances, the police conducted an investigation and were horrified as they came across the mangled remains of the second team in the basement, their bodies hung with various parts of them missing. The same scene police had first come across in 1973 when the notorious Texas Chainsaw Massacre was fresh.
People soon believed the deaths to have been caused by some maniac who'd developed an obsession with Thomas Hewitt's former deeds and tried to re-enact them to frighten the people into leaving once again.
Some who did not believe this ventured to the house themselves to conduct their own investigation, and returned as if nothing had happened. After this the town attempted to finish the desired work only this time there was to be no inspection.
The first team sent in brought sledge hammers and other various tools to tear down some of the inner walls and support beams and take care of the basement which lay too deep for the crane to reach. They went down to the basement to begin and as the first man swung the hammer a force knocked him back into the bloody table behind him.
The others looked at him with bewilderment and thinking that he'd swung the hammer stupidly, the man regained himself and made another attempted swing only this time he was sent hurdling into the table and over the side.
His partners were horrified as they ran to his side to see if he was okay; a large blade that had been sitting on the table was deep in the man's back as if someone had physically jammed it in. This sent all three men into complete terror and grabbing their dying partner they made their way out of the basement and into the entry way where they halted abruptly.
The two who'd survived explained that they had seen the torn and mangled figure of Thomas Hewitt sitting by that very front window, peering outside as he did when he was alive, waiting for Luda May to return. Seeing such a sight sent their terror sky-rocketing and none of them had the ability to move until they said the figure turned its head slightly towards them. It was like a green light and they ran out of the house faster than ever before.
The injured man died just as they entered the town limits and after that no one dared to venture even half a mile from the house and swore that the house be left alone and whoever dared to torment the lost and troubled presence of Thomas Hewitt would suffer the consequences.
