Story 1: The Forgotten Vending Machine
There is a village somewhere in England that has not been inhabited for over twenty years. It has long since been forgotten off of most maps, and only has one road in and out of it. If you manage to find it, it will seem a peaceful enough place, the derelict buildings being overgrown and nature taking back the land for herself. However, somewhere within the village is a vending machine which still has power. It will still have its original look and sell ordinary brands of drink (though with twenty year old packaging). However, the one at the very bottom will be marked "E". Pay only in ten pence pieces to buy this drink.
Before drinking the mysterious beverage, peer inside the can to check it's color. Do not try to pour some out. It will refuse to leave the can, despite any vigorous shaking you may attempt. If it is green in color, drink heartily as it will give you an unnaturally long lifespan and good luck in everything you do. If it is red, however, drinking it will spread a horrific pestilence over you, claiming one of your senses every ten years after the date that you first imbibed.
Story 2: The Statue
A few years ago, a mother and father decided they needed a break, so they wanted to head out for a night on the town. They called their most trusted babysitter. When the babysitter arrived, the two children were already fast asleep in bed. So the babysitter just got to sit around and make sure everything was okay with the children.
Later that night, the babysitter got bored and went to watch TV, but she couldn't watch it downstairs because they did not have cable downstairs (the parents didn't want children watching too much garbage). So, she called them and asked them if she could watch cable in the parent's room. Of course, the parents said it was okay, but the babysitter had one final request... she asked if she could cover up the angel statue outside the bedroom window with a blanket or cloth, because it made her nervous. Or at least close the blinds. The phone line was silent for a moment and the father who was talking to the babysitter at the time said, "TAKE THE CHILDREN AND GET OUT OF THE HOUSE NOW! WE'LL CALL THE POLICE! WE DON'T HAVE AN ANGEL STATUE!"
The police found both of the children and the babysitter slumped in pools of their own blood within three minutes of the call. No statue was found.
