Chapter 1: The House on Blackwood Street
It was a house everyone in town avoided. The Blackwood House, an old Victorian mansion, had been abandoned for decades, standing as a decayed relic of something sinister. Rumors swirled about eerie whispers, shadowy figures, and people who entered but never returned. No one dared to go near it—until Alex Carter did.
Alex was a paranormal investigator with a thirst for the unknown. His YouTube channel thrived on urban legends, haunted places, and eerie encounters. When he heard about Blackwood House, he knew it would be the ultimate story. Armed with cameras, a flashlight, and his unwavering curiosity, he stepped through the rusted gates on a cold October night.
Chapter 2: The Invitation
The moment Alex crossed the threshold, an unsettling chill wrapped around him. The air was thick with the scent of decay, and the wooden floor groaned under his weight. His flashlight flickered as he scanned the grand hall. The house had been left in eerie disarray—furniture covered in dust, cobwebs draping the chandeliers, and old family portraits whose eyes seemed to follow him.
Then, a whisper.
It was faint at first, like the distant rustling of leaves. But it grew louder, clearer.
“Welcome, Alex.”
His blood ran cold. He hadn't spoken his name aloud. He spun around, expecting to see someone—but there was no one. Just shadows stretching along the walls, moving unnaturally against the dim light.
His camera recorded everything. This was gold. He spoke into the microphone, trying to keep his voice steady. “If there’s someone here, show yourself.”
A door upstairs creaked open slowly.
Chapter 3: The Presence
Alex hesitated before climbing the winding staircase. Each step felt heavier than the last. At the top, a long hallway stretched into darkness. The walls were lined with doors, some slightly ajar. He reached the door that had opened and gently pushed it further.
Inside, the room was eerily untouched. A child’s bed, toys scattered, a rocking horse in the corner. As he stepped in, the temperature plummeted. His breath became visible in the icy air.
Then, the rocking horse moved.
Back and forth. Slowly at first, then violently.
A child’s laughter echoed through the room. High-pitched. Hollow. Empty.
Alex’s hand trembled as he lifted his camera. “Who are you?”
Silence.
Then, in a burst of motion, the closet door flung open. Something rushed at him—a blur of black mist, whispering voices swirling in his ears. He stumbled backward, tripping over the rug, his camera skidding across the floor.
Then it stopped.
The whispers. The movement. Everything.
But the feeling remained. He wasn’t alone. Something was watching.
Chapter 4: The Reflection
Alex retrieved his camera, breathing heavily. “Alright. I get it. You don’t want me here.”
But as he turned to leave, something caught his eye—a mirror across the room. His reflection wasn’t right.
In the glass, his face was distorted, his eyes hollow pits of darkness. And behind him, a shadow loomed. A tall, thin figure with elongated fingers and a grin that stretched impossibly wide.
His heart pounded as he whipped around—nothing was there.
Yet, when he looked back at the mirror, the figure was closer.
He bolted from the room, racing down the hall. The whispers turned into screams. The walls shook. The portraits lining the hallway contorted—their mouths twisting into silent shrieks.
The front door slammed shut before he could reach it.
Chapter 5: The Possession
A deep voice resonated through the house. “Stay.”
Alex clawed at the door, but it wouldn’t budge. His flashlight died. Darkness swallowed him.
Then, cold fingers brushed against his neck.
A violent force slammed him against the wall, pinning him. His body convulsed as an icy sensation seeped into his skin, burrowing deep, taking hold. His limbs went rigid. His vision blurred. His thoughts fractured.
He wasn’t alone in his head anymore.
Something was inside him.
The house rumbled. The whispers grew into a deafening chorus. And then—
Silence.
The door creaked open on its own. The night air seeped in, carrying a cruel sense of relief.
Alex staggered outside. He was free. Or so he thought.
Chapter 6: The Aftermath
Days passed. Alex returned home, but he wasn’t the same. Shadows clung to his periphery, moving when they shouldn’t. Whispers crept into his ears when he was alone. His reflection no longer matched his expressions.
Then, one night, he woke up standing in the middle of his living room, camera in hand, recording himself.
He played back the footage.
A voice—his voice—spoke in a slow, distorted whisper: “We never left.”
A shadow flickered behind him in the recording.
And then… the screen went black.
