"What was that? Why's everything gone dark?" Sarah whispered on the point of hysterics.
"Ssssh calm down, I don't know. AHHHHHH!"
"Tom!"
"Something touched me!"
"Yes Tom, something did touch you!"
"Mr Eves! It's you!"
"Of course, who else would it be? I was in the basement, turned on the light and I must have tripped the switch" Replied Mr Eves, owner of the castle.
"That would explain the darkness" Sarah said quietly.
"Yes my dear, it would. Honestly, what did you think it was, ghosts!"
"Well, it suddenly went very cold and then the lights went out"
"Well I can explain the coldness too. Our guests have arrived. They must have let in the wind when they came through the front door. Now, we'll have to use candles in here for now, as I cannot get to the fuse box just yet. If you go and sort out that between you, I'll greet our guests"
Sarah and Tom went to work, both feeling very stupid with themselves.
"Hello and welcome to my home" Mr Eves bellowed down the hall to the waiting guests.
"Hello" Replied the group.
There had been great hilarity between the group as they had arrived. They all had dressed up for the occasion, but Luka and Sam had stolen the award for worst medieval costume, with the cowboy and milkmaid outfits. The group were taken into a large room, and served with cocktails. Over the next hour, more and more guests arrived and then the party started in full.
"Abby. Where are you off to?" Carter shouted. He was having a fabulous night. All his good friends were there; Luka, Sam, Chuck, Susan, Ray, and Neela. It was not often that they were able to get together.
"I'm visiting the ladies if you don't mind!"
"Of course not. I'll be waiting!"
Abby grinned as she walked towards the toilets. This place was amazing, she thought to herself. She spotted the door and noted the funny medieval ladies sign on it. As she pushed open the door, she saw she wasn't alone.
"My dear. What are you doing in here?" Said Mr Eves.
"Oh, I could have sworn I had the right door. Sorry!"
"Oh, its ok, stay"
"No thanks" Abby frowned.
Carter was waiting for Abby to return when he heard a stomach-wrenching scream……………………
