I wrote this because I have a lot of demons and I feel this is the only way I can release them. Stories aren't created by an author so much as they are things a skilled artist finds and must dig up. Trying to keep it as whole as possible in the excavation. I'm like a paleontologist of words. When my soul cries I collect the tears in a jar and then put the jar in the oven. I let them evaporate and the residue that's left over is literature. Enjoy. Also this is the sequel, so you should read the first first losers: http://thegifthorsesmouth.blogspot.com/2010/10/scary-house-short-story.html
For my great great grandfather, may these words reach your angel ears and make you smile proudly.
Scary House 2: Scarier House
So tell me is it scary for you baby
So tell me is it crazy for you baby
You know the stranger is you
-Michael Jackson, Is it scary for you
Remember that house that was scary before? Now it's even more scary than ever. It used to be the people in the town were scared of the house because it was so scary but now on top of how scary the house was now it also has the recent triple murder that is way scary also. Basically what I'm trying to say is the scary factor of the house has been made a lot more legitimate due to the recent terrifying events.
A few monthes later a bunch of people that were from a college decided that they wanted to stay the night in the house to try to find the scary and prove it exists. They brought all kinds of equipment and like cameras and audio recorders. They were not scared because they were so smart. Little did they know scary is not something you can escape with knowledge. It will eat your knowledge and you will be like a little crying scared baby. Where's your knowledge baby? Cry, cry, cry.
So these people pull up in a van and get out and they start talking about how scary the house looks. Not that they think it's scary, they are just talking about how the concept of scary in the modern world matches up very well with the scary that can be seen in the house. For example alot of people are scared of scary bats flying around and this house has scary bats flying around sometimes.
So these college kids go into the scary door of the scary house. The reason the door is so scary is because it creeks really loud when you open it. They discuss how the reason the creek is scary is because they have been raised in a society that often in media associates the creek with a scary atmosphere. They think this is very silly and they all gather around the door and laugh at it. Little do they know the scary in the house is laughing at them as well!
The people begin setting up their equipment in the house. It takes a long time and night falls. Night is way scarier than day. Ask anybody. They don't turn on any lights in the house because they want to capture the scary on film and if you turn on lights scary usually wont come out. It's still somehow bright enough to see everyting around though so don't worry about that.
They all walk around the house and one of the guys sees this weird chain hanging from the ceiling. The chain is probably the scariest chain you have ever seen in your god damn life. You are terrified by it. They decide they need to film the chain so they all stand under it. One of the guys wants to prove to the cute girl that he isn't scared by the chain so he grabs it and pulls on it. Suddenly the scariest sound you've ever heard happens. The girl screams and that makes you realize it's even more scary than you thought. You really relate to her fear.
Suddenly the floor drops out from underneath them. Probably pulling the chain did that but it's hard to tell. Maybe it's just a scary chain that makes scary sounds when you pull on it. Anyways they start falling but it's not that far of a drop. I mean it's a far enough drop to be frightening and scary but not enough for you to break your leg. I mean you might think it's far enough to break your leg while your falling and that makes it even more scary, but really when you hit the ground you realize it wasn't that much of a fall and this realization is terrifying.
They all start to freak out kind of. Not that much because they still are sticking with their college education. They start talking about how to get out because it's really dark and they are thirsty but they forgot the drinks in the van. So they start to feel around. Suddenly the girl sticks her hand in a spider web on the wall! She screams and shakes her arm because she is so scared. Luckily the spider wasn't home, but think about how scary that would of been if he had been there!
One of the guys finds a door against one of the scary walls. He tells all the others and they are relieved because they think they have found a way out of the hole. He opens the door and he sees it is a tunnel carved into the dark musty ground. Also a giant scary swarm of wasps fly out for some reason and sting the guy in the face. If you are not afraid of wasps imagine some kind of insect that you do think is scary instead. Really big ants maybe. Turns out he's allergic to bees (or ants). If he doesn't get medicine in the next 20 minutes he will die from the sting(or bites). They have to hurry. The tension is palpable!
Though the tunnel is very clearly very scary they decide it's the only choice and begin to head down it. The walls are lit with torches like in every movie with a secret tunnel you've ever seen, except way way scarier. Think of the scariest thing you have ever seen in your life. This tunnel is the exact same amount of scary as that.
As they head deeper and deeper into the tunnel they begin to hear terrifying sounds. It sounds like chants and chains. They keep going. Finally they come to a huge open room. In the room are these really creepy monks with scary robes and a big scary monster tied to the wall with chains. Imagine the scariest looking monster you possibly can. Actually please go ahead and stop here and take a few minutes to brainstorm what the scariest monster of all time looks like. Maybe draw a picture of it. Okay, this monster looks exactly like that!
The monks stop chanting which is somehow even more scary than when they were chanting which was so scary you wouldn't even believe it. They tell the college people they can't be there. The college kids don't even hear though because they are frozen stiff because they saw the monster. Everyone in college always taught them monsters are not real, so now that they know monsters ARE real they are questioning everything they've ever learned. All of their knowledge is quickly draining out of their minds and is being replaced with the scariest fear ever. They all start to scream.
Their screams wake up the monster and he lets out a horrible growl. Imagine for a second that you have 2 sons and 3 daughters ranging from the ages of 12-17, they all go to a concert together and on the way home they get in a car accident and they all die. Also the reason the car accident happens is because you were supposed to fix the breaks last week but you forgot so it's all your fault. Think of how sad and guilty you would be when you found out the news. Now imagine for a second that that sadness and guiltyness were turned into scary. That is the amount of scary the growl of this monster is.
All the college kids began to scream and run around. The monster suddenly rips off his chains and begins grabbing people. First he grabs a monk and ribs his eye balls out. The monk is so blind and scared he dies instantly. Then he grabs two more monks at once and throws them at two other monks so hard that all four monks die. That's scary times four.
Now he grabs the girl that was scared of the spider and opens his mouth. Out of his mouth pours a billion of the all time scariest spiders of all time. They all crawl into the girls mouth. He puts the girl down and the guy that tried to impress her walks over to her. She asks him for a kiss and he thinks this is big chance. She kisses him and half the spiders fly out of her mouth and into his. Then both of their heads explode in the bloodiest scariest thing that you have ever seen.
Then he grabs the other two college kids and scares them really bad too and they die. Then he goes to sleep.
The van still sits outside of this house to this day. If you saw the van you would be feel really uneasy. Even though you know it has perfectly good drinks in it you would never get enough to courage to go get them.
Also the monster is still there somewhere. Or maybe he left. Maybe he's right behind you right now!
The End?
