Gothic opening chapter
On a dark, cloudy night, you could hear the screams coming from the houses. Well
before I tell you the story I will introduce myself, my name is Bill, I am 22 years old.
Me and Jim (my friend) cycled to the abandoned neighbourhood. me and Jim were
looking at the Geralds’ house (they named their house by their last name) we saw
nothing but a door, saying “DO NOT ENTER!”. (I know it’s a bit cheesy but get over
it).
we walked in and saw a staircase we walked down and heard someone scream.
we ran quickly down the stairs and saw a woman bleeding to death. I had my medkit
on me so we tried to help but she died. we tried calling the police but there was no
answer, so we wandered on. I had my gun on me (colt 45) because I am the ex
police. I quit 2 years ago but they told me I can keep the gun down the corridor. It
became bloodier and bloodier.
Jim rushed ahead and told me to come quick, we saw a man had been ripped apart
by what looked like dogs. we saw a man with a chainsaw, I told him if he tried
anything funny we we’re armed. he started to run, I shot at him but it did nothing, he
still charged at us. We ran but he got closer, we got to the stairs and got to the bikes.
He was mad we escaped down the path.
He was right next to us, we cycled but it did nothing. He flattened Jim’s tyre but I shot
him in the leg so that he slowed down. We’ve escaped, we told the police. We went
down in the police car, but when we got there the door had vanished.
