The House of fear

The House of fear

A Poem by Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot
"

My encounters at an abandoned house in the country, I'll never forget the fear I had in that house.

"
 
  I walk down the hall to an old looking door
And turn the Skeleton-Key quickly to the right
  The door creaks open, revealing the bright color of the sweet moon light
 This wasn't part of the tour

I step inside and flop on the bed, knowing something will happen
  Superstitious they all call me, with the tone of a laugh
 But I bet there's more people out there like me on the graph
   This isn't the normal haunted house someone would picture, with thunder clapping

 Many people died in this room, breathing their final breath
   I see a shadow rush by me in a flash
 Then hear the Chandelier fall with a crash
   Oh the magnificent things caused by death

  I see couples dancing lovingly in the moon light
They are suddenly set a'blaze by torches of pain
   Witches they called them, the creatures of hell were slain
My heart reached out to them, seeing their looks of fright

 Next is a mother and child laying in a room of red
   The child no older than two, reached out with a cry
About this time the moon was above the stars oh so high
  I looked to the mother and child, and they were dead

 A man yelled from the hall
   He had red eyes and grinned an evil grin
He asked me where I had been
  An Axe flew beside my head, and crashed with a fall

I ran from the house hearing screams of pain and fear
  The trees rushed by my head in a flash
I trip and fall with a crash
   The last thing I remember is hearing a woman saying "We would love to have you dear"

This is all true, I know it sounds sooooo fake, but it's not. I'm actually thinking about going back there with some friends, not to vandalize, but to see if anything happens.

It sounds like an exciting haunted house! Wonder what mystery lurks behind all those events...

Lol! It was my pleasure reading your poem. :-)
It sounds like a nightmare to me. I like the way you rhymed it, the ends fit with each other and so did the middle. It was like a chaotic walk through a haunted house near Halloween.
Well played. ^^

x3 You're welcome
I really liked this, actually. I'm very critical of other people's work, so for me, that's saying something. And I believe you when you say it's true, because I've had supernatural experiences of my own. At my own house. And no one believes me. :D

The supernatural can work in many ways, something in that house is not right. I just had the feeling.. read more
