The House In The Neighborhood

I live in a pretty calm and safe neighborhood. Pretty boring sometimes. Sometimes I think that this is the most uneventful neighborhood in the world! It's that bad. But sometimes when I am alone sitting on the grass in our back yard, I can tell you, it is absolute bliss. That is where I mostly go if my daily life gets too stressful. It helps relieve the stress and just appreciate nature as it is. Our neighborhood consists of five houses. All of them are fairly normal. Except for the fifth one.

    I can see the house from my bedroom. It is very old looking. Strange things occur around that house all the time. But me, living in this neighborhood for 3 years, have gotten used to it and they don't bother me anymore. But sometimes, at night, I lay in bed, staring at the ceiling fan, thinking about that house. My parents never let me get close to that house. They say it is best for me to not go there. Nobody in the neighborhood goes near that house. I kept wondering, what is in that house? Was there a murder? Paranormal activity? Hidden secrets?

    I woke up in the morning, ate my bowl of cereal, and went to other kids in the neighborhood to call them to play. When we were playing suddenly a loud noise was heard. It came from the mysterious house. The noise was indescribable, almost alien, and unrealisticly loud. Everyone on the playing field heard it. We were shocked. I didn't know how to explain such a thing. Nobody was around the house. No thief was in sight. No sign of life whatsoever. We did not dare get near the house. Strange things happen, but this is by far the strangest ever. We all went to our secret meeting room next to the playground to discuss about the situation.

    "What could have happened there?" Carl, the eldest of our group said.Tony, who was kind of skeptical about the situation, said,"must've been a cat or something, or some other animal". Nobody agreed with Tony."You really think it was an animal? That sounded nothing like an animal" Carl said.
Kim, the youngest, said,"was it ghosts or demons?". Carl replied,"I don't know, but we will have to find out."."Are we going inside the house? It could be dangerous!" I said."We have to solve this
mystery!" Carl replied, having a kind of detective attitude in him.

     I couldn't sleep that night. Carl had said that Tony, Kim, Himself and me were going to the house tomorrow. I was scared, but the feeling of intrigue and mystery had already consumed me. I really wanted to know the secret of the house. I wanted to know it more than ever!!

    I woke up early that morning. I hurriedly ate my breakfast and met my friends at the playground. Together we secretly got past my house because I didn't want my parents to know about this. Then we  were right in front of the entrance. The door is usually locked. But after that sound the lock was broken. No, broken is not the appropriate word. The lock was melted. These locks were made of very strong material. What could have caused this? But at this point we did not mind. It just made our job easier. We entered this house. Inside it looked fairly normal. Infact so normal it was actually creepy. Everything was normal until we came to the basement. Inside the basement there was a TV but the abnormal thing is that there was a sign that said,"NEVER GIVES". It was all written with blood for some reason. Carl suddenly said,"we will spend the night here and see if there is any paranormal activity. We all agreed. At this point we were much more interested in solving the mystery than saving our own lives.

    We all went home. Carl said he would bring his EVP(electromagnetic voice phenomena) and electromagnetic sound detector. He also brought some spirit alarms. He said all of us will have to come to the entrance of the house at midnight.

    We all came on time. Carl led us back to the basement. We set up all the equipment and waited the whole night. We came out at 6 am and took all our equipment with us. The night went pretty well, but nothing strange happened. That is what we thought before we checked the equipment. The EVP had caught a recording which happened somewhere between 2:30 and 2:35. We could clearly hear someone say "IT TAKES YOU". We could not hear anything at night, and we were all awake. Also, we all have recalled feeling touched slightly. The spirit alarms had gone off multiple times, Carl just put it on silent mode by mistake. What ever it was we all knew one thing.

SOMETHING WAS WITH US IN THE BASEMENT.
