It was the proverbial haunted house of the neighborhood, one all the young children decided to investigate, and it seemed almost everyone knew the story, for it was often the topic of campfire discussion.

It was a large, two-story house that stood forbiddingly on the corner of a well-traveled street. Compared to the cheery disposition of the neighboring houses, the foreboding one brought down the entire block, yet no one had torn it down in the whole of 50 years that it stood, being too scared to go near it.

The story was a gruesome one, and sometimes had to be edited for the sake of the children who had begged to be told. It was an unspoken tale to the adults who didn't wish to hear about it.

Rumors spread like wildfire around the small town, and some of the stories about teens who had spent the night there and were almost killed seemed to get out of hand.

Yet one boy was about to uncover the mystery of this abandoned house and begin one of the greatest experiences of his life.

Authoress Notes

Okay, I know that this isn't much of a chapter, but keep in mind that it is just a prologue and that the first chapter will bemuch longer.
