Fan Fiction ❯ To the poor unfortunate soul who found this diary…welcome to hell. ❯ Journal entry #3 ( Chapter 3 )

March 28, 2003

You will not believe what was in that house, I swear you won't, hell I don't even believe it. Here I'll start at the beginning. When I got to the creepy old house it looked the same as when I had first seen it. The shingles were still falling off, the hole through the roof was still there and it was still painted a nasty ass green with splotches of dark brown to increase the "creepy" look or was it the "I'm messed up" look. Anyway there I was just standing there staring at this ugly house, I was so freaked that I was going to be like one of those blonde big breasted girls from those slasher movies that I was debating whether or not I was going in. I decide that I needed to stop acting like a wussy so I sucked it up and took it one steep at a time. Mind you that they were very slow and small steps, plus it was a bonus that I had went to the bathroom before hand. I walked up the old rotten stairs afraid that I was going to fall into oblivion, and when I took my first step on the porch the floorboard under my foot gave way and I started to fall trough the porch. I screamed so loud that my lungs still hurt now. I then felt something slimy grab my leg, quickly I ripped my leg out of that hole and bolted for the door. Yes Megan is a dumb dumb, she ran into the house that she was so freaked of going to because she might get her head chopped off to get away from something that was in the house. That's it I'm going to dye my hair and get breast implants.

The inside of the house was just as creepy as the outside, the small front hallway had an old fashion staircase that led to the second floor, a few of the steps were missing and parts of the railing had rotted away. The walls were covered with flower print wallpaper that looked like it was a hundred years old, in some places it was pealing and there were water spots everywhere. Beside the staircase there was a large wooden door, I suppose that there was a kitchen behind it but there was no way in hell that I was going to go see if I was right. There was a room on my left, the door was gone and the molding around it had been taken down. Yup I was just waiting for some guy in a cheap hockey mask with a chainsaw to come around the corner.

I took baby steps toward the door and stuck my head in to see if it was safe. Oh yes by putting my head in it makes it a much faster death, an easy swish of an axe and I would be home free as apose to the long and painful stab in the chest. Sunlight poured through the curtain-less windows reviling a room filled with broken furniture and stuffed animals covered with dust. I picked up one of the stuffed animals that was on an orange loveseat by the back wall. It was a small brown bunny, it looked just like my stuffed bunny that I used to carry around with me when I was young, Actually it look exactly like my bunny, right down to the ripped ear. It was really strange, I all of a sudden did not want to be alone. As I continued to look around the room I heard the sound of footsteps on the other side of the house, a scream and then a door being opened then slammed closed. I didn't move I just stood there frozen, I thought that it was a killer or something but then why did he scream, at that point I realized that it had been a girl screaming. I decided that there was no point in dying alone so I slowly walked out of the room and started to head for the door by the stairs. I pushed the door open slowly and walked into the next room, which by the way was not a kitchen. The room that had unfolded in front of me was identical to the front hall, the staircase was beside me and the door was right in front me. The door that I'd had just came in through was suppose to be behind me but there it was right in front of me. But there was someone standing in front of the door, when they turned around I finally recognized who it was.

"Megan you freak! It's your fault that I'm here." Yup there stood my mortal enemy since grade one April Freedmen. She was as usual wearing only brand named clothes from American eagle, her top was light pink with princess written across her chest in pink glitter, the sleeve came down to her elbow and it had a very low v-neck. She wore low very tight hip-huggers that flared out at the bottom and small butterflies had been painted all along the sides. God she made me want to hurl. I was about to spit back a sarcastic remark when April turned ghost white. This always happens in the movies, I'll turn around and the killer will be right behind me holding a butcher knife or a really big axe. So I decided to the something smart for a change and I ran for the door, pushing the princess out of the way as I did. I flung the door open and started to run, but my foot got caught in a hole and I felt the same slimy thing on my leg. I looked down to find that my leg was trapped in the porch. At the point I was totally freaked I mean this hole was on the other side of the house right? I felt someone grab my arm so I looked up and there was April the girl who hatted my guts trying to save me after I'd sacrificed her life for mine. I still don't get why she did it but I decided that I might be a good idea to get the hell out that hole, yup that was the second smart thing I did in five minutes I'm so proud of myself.

Anyway back to what happened, April (with a little help from me) managed to get me out of the hole. We jumped over the steps and due to our amazing balance we both fell on our asses. I turned to see if the big bad and ugly was behind us but he wasn't there.

"Where the hell did he go?"

"Megan if you want to go look for him then have fun you stupid freak."

" Wow you called me stupid I'm so happy that your finally expanding your vocabulary."

I looked back toward the house and what I saw totally freaked me. The creepy old house was the same as when I first walked. I mean the shingles were falling off in the same places and the hole in the roof was in the exact same place and the exact size. The porch, the stairs, everything was exactly the same.

But when had went out the back door, why would someone build a house that was the exact same on the front and back?

"It's the same" I told April who was now standing

"What"

"I mean I went into the house on the other side and it looks the same as it does on this side"

"What" It wasn't a what the hell are you talking about what but a your kidding me what.

"Me-Megan"

"Yeah" I said as got up and dusted off my pants.

"There's people in the windows" I stopped dusting then and looked up and yes there were people in the windows. Each person had white semi-translucent skin that clung to their high cheekbones, their eyes were hallow charcoal black pits and their hair looked like it was made of gold. Now it was time to do my third smart thing of the day and run but this time I took the princess with me. We ran for a long time until a noticed that the scenery was a little familiar.

Not only was the house the same on each side but so was the swamp that I started in. Now April and I are in the swamp hiding out, he are both truly confused. I mean how could we be in the swamp that was originally on the other side of the house, ouch my head hurts I think that I'll stop thinking for awhile. I went to back to the house to make sure that what I had seen was real but when I reached the house there was nothing there. I went back to where I'd left April still very confused and frustrated. April was still blaming me for bring her here, but every so often she would change the topic by commenting on how much of a freak I was and how she had known it all along. Well were both pretty hungry so were going to go see if we can find something to eat, hopefully we run into the Easter bunny and he'll give us chocolate eggs filled with Carmel, I think I`m starting to hallucinate. I'll write back later.

P.S. note to self: sleep with one eye open.
