"Hey guys what's up?" Trish walked up to her friends at the local teen hangout The Spotlight. She'd just gotten off of work. Since leaving New York they'd all had to give up their jobs. She was now working at a local supermarket. She was still dressed in her marty's food supply uniform consisting of khaki flares, white sneakers, and a white polo with the store's symbols on it.



"Nothin much just HALLOWEEN planning!" Stacey said exaggerating the word Halloween. Dressed stylishly in a pair of dark blue hip huggers, a Spongebob Square Square pants T-shirt, and a brown suede jacket.

"So what are our plans for this year?" Trish asked pulling out a chair and sitting down on it backwards leaning on the top of it.

"Well guys I was walking in Times Square yesterday and I saw a sign on MTV studios for the filming of the yearly halloween episode of Fear." Molly said nodding she looked at the girls.

"What were you doing in times square?" Stephanie asked.

"I was buying this outfit!" Molly said pointing out her apparel of a pink halter top and a ripped faded jean skirt it was accompanied by black knee high boots.

"Nice.." Stephanie commented then stood so the group could check out he outfit too. "I bought this three days ago I had to have it!"

"That is so cute Steph!" Lita said. Stephanie was wearing a pink panther shirt and black stretch pants with her old addidas.

" But I so want to borrow that shirt Molly!" Stephanie said giggling.

"Guys way off SUBJECT!" Trish said.

"Ok so there's this house in upstate New York the real name for it is Chanticleer Commons." Molly said digging out the papers she'd printed up on the house. "But everyone else calls it Satan's Kitchen." She handed out the papers to each of the girls.

Each girl read it carefully and was slowly pulled into the tale.





Chanticleer Commons was apart of a plantation growing various fruits. In that house through out time has carried secrets unknown to most in the area, what is known is that well over 12 deaths have occurred there. The first death occurred during the revolutionary war when the house's first owners were slaughtered by British troops for not cooperating. Alexandria and Charles Denton were holding information about american troops they had two daughters who were hidden in the house. They were stashed in the attic closet. The secret passeges of the house ( a stair well that lead down to the basement) allowed the two to escape. Selphie and Victoria (Victoria was 8) made it through the night to a neighbors house where Victoria was captured and killed. Selphie who was 16 was kept and raped. She gave up her father's secrets to live and returned home to the house her parents were killed.



Two months later she Married William Buckton who relocated from North Carolina to escape death by britsh troops. After their wedding night the couple reportedly saw Victoria's Mother holding her stomach as if keeping blood in and walking the halls screaming in agony. Her screams were to her husband whom when William got out of bed often saw lying stabbed 45 times in the chest. Victoria was slowly driven mad by these images and called for a priest to bless the house constantly. After a while She was accused of having an affair with that same priest.



Unknown to her husband she had a child that he raised as his own. Arnold Buckton was 3 years old when his father found out that he was the son of the priest. He happened upon his cheating wife and the priest in the garden the same day he found out and slit his wife's throat. The preist ran until he reached the slaves cavern deep in the forest. This is where William gutted the preist and tossed the body carelessly into the slaves cabin. Walking back to the garden the broken man slit his own throat and collapsed on top of his dead wife their blood staining the cobblestone ground. A stain which was never able to be removed and was always fresh and wet.





Arnold Buckton at age 24 never legally or socially acceptably married. But instead he prefered the servant girls. This included his lover Theresa. Their marriage was never legal but they had three sons in their first 3 years of marriage. It was rumored that Theresa was a mad woman. A slave who craved power. There were fights in the bedroom that was once Charles and Deborah's and then William and Victoria's. Their shouts could be heard all over the land arguing over land and the final will of the head of the family. When Arnold died at the age 30 mysteriously, she was accused of murder. Arnold was found hanging out in the woods next to the slave cabin. The same place where the priest that his father had killed more than 17 years prior.



Theresa was never tried for the crime therefore she continued to run the household. Looked down upon by her neighbors she decided to show her strength and ruthlessness. Theresa ruled the house with an iron fist. Killing slaves who didn't obey her orders. Cutting their bodies into pieces and placing them around the house under floor boards as a reminder to the house slaves who they were. This carried on for another 18 years. Her sons Timothy, Benjamin, and Hunter were 21, 20, and 19. When the servants plotted to kill their mistress her son's did nothing to stop them. Theresa's body was poisoned by her food 20 years after her husband's death. Her eldest son took the reigns and the other son's still remained in the house.



Rumors flared up once again when all three turned down several offers from neighboring planters with young daughters. When ten years later the brothers were still unmarried neighbors inspected the situation during the night and found all three sharing the same bed. The house at the time could house over 87 people at a time. With 75 rooms and 10 secret rooms the house was equipped with more than enough space for the three men to not have to sleep together. When investigated further it was discovered that once every other night a manservant would share the company of each man. The neighbors approached the brothers with caution. An argument broke out when the brother's were defending each other and a fist fight occurred each were knocked unconsious and arrested. For the unholyness of their relationship all three were hung on the house grounds. The house fell into disrepair for over 100 years.

In 1911 the house was bought yet again by a wealthy banker named Luke Fellowes. He and his wife and daughter Julia Fellowes and Elizabeth Fellowes were coming to America by ship. More specifically the ship Titanic. When the ship sunk the following year the house fell into the hands of the Thomas's. Matthew Thomas and Ivy Thomas were well known for their survival on the Titanic. Unlike the Fellowes who died in their life boat after being rescued from the waters.



Two years after settling in the haunting began. In the garden sounds of murmuring scared the mistress of the house while she was tending to the garden in the absence of their gardener who had quit due to fear of ghosts. In the bedroom that belonged the Dentons and the Bucktons agonizing screams could be heard. The loud muttering of Victoria Buckton was heard beside the right bedside. Deborah can be seen stumbling down the hallway. Occasionally pounding on the door can be heard. More than likely if there is someone in the room the pounding will continue for hours upon hours. If no one is in the room the pounding normally lasts for 10 minutes at a time.



Whispering in the attic and the sounds of footsteps in the walls indicate that Selphie has returned to the house in search of her sister whom was to protect her from danger. Out in the woods where the abandoned slave cabin rests bones and other deteriorated organs were reportedly seen. The body of Theresa Buckton was seen on the table after her poisoning. And in the early morning at 4:45 am the bodies of slaves appear around the house looking for something is has been suggested that they are looking for their bones. In the late evening just before the sun sets at the gates of the house the three Buckton Brothers are seen hanging from posts. In April the Fellowes can be seen walking through the fog trying to find their way home.



The Thomas's we extremely unhappy with the home after they moved there. The crops slowly dying were of no use to them. But several weeks before they were set to move the keys to every door in the house went missing and every door in the house locked tight as a drum. Howls and screams were heard that night in 1927 when they tried to move but they were trapped inside with the horrors of the house. In 1987 the neighbors of the area tried to burn it down. They were horrified to see the flames turn a pale green and white and the screams of death intensified. The house didn't burn but the fire raged on well into the night before stopping 2 am. The sounds were never forgotten and the legend still stood just like that house. That house which is now known as Satan's kitchen.



"Whoa guys this sounds great." Lita said smiling.

"12 people died there!" Stephanie exclaimed. "Remember my deal with the dead I don't mess with them they down mess with me.



"I say we go." Trish said.

"To SATAN'S KITCHEN WE GO!" Stacey, Trish, Molly, and Lita said. Stephanie sat there thinking of just what they were getting themselves into.
