Frightmare Mansion - Chapter 6
"Well since I know where the rotting corpse was found, I guess I’ll go pick out my room now," Mom just rubs her temples in frustration. She didn't care for that remark, but I just can't help it. I know I just crapped on her big surprise, but my birthday was ruined, so there. Why should I feel guilty about anything, I didn't ask to come here.
I find myself at the foot of the large stairway looking up to the second floor. I can see Justin and Kylie rushing around looking through the rooms. Well, at least they seem really excited about being here. But you could probably dump them off in the middle of a toxic swamp and they would still be all excited about it, that's kids! Poor dummies.
As I make my way up the stairs, my fingers wipe a thick layer of dust off the scratched up old bannister. It was so darn bad I have to dust my hands off when I reached the top. I slowly explore my way down the wide hallway, I notice the old peeling wallpaper, worn out carpets, and above me, water stains on the ceiling from years of rain fall. How could this "Mansion" as Mom calls it, been so neglected? What could have happened here that nobody would give a crap about this place?
I start to imagine all of the memories that fill this place, from the families that lived here in the past. The happiness and the sadness that transpired in these very rooms. The history lesson we got from Goblin Grandma about this house is very interesting, to say the least. So far everything seems normal, so why was Goblin Grandma all spooked about?
Uh- was that? A cold chill I felt run up my back. Oh, there it goes again. Like in undulating waves, never felt a chills like that before. I hope I'm not coming down with anything. My forehead feels cool, I seem to be normal temperature. And strangely, this spot where I'm standing feels icy cold too.
Very wierd, I kinda feel there's like a presence near me, but oddly I'm not frightened. I can almost feel something is pulling me around the hallway corner. As I turn the corner I find it's leading to the bedroom in front of the house. I've never felt anything like this before. An almost unspoken invitation is being presented to me. Suddenly Justin pokes his over sized head out of the room - "Boo!"
I felt my heart stop for a second! "Hey you little troll, you scared the hell out of me!"
Justin, with that mischievous smile, "You're gonna like this bedroom!"
"Why?"
"See for yourself!" His big fat head disappears into the room.
