The Door That Shouldn’t Exist (part-4)
The house shifted, breathing like something alive. Its rotting walls pulsed in rhythm with my heartbeat, groaning like ribs cracking open. Every step echoed, feeding into the suffocating silence that haunted me. This was more than just a haunted house horror story this was a trap.
At the end of the hallway stood a black door I had never seen before. Veins of red light seeped through its cracks, pulsing like blood. My hand shook, yet the silence urged me forward. This wasn’t just fear it was a paranormal experience beyond explanation.
When the door creaked open, the air turned rancid. Beyond was no room, only a void. Inside floated faces hundreds, maybe thousands. They drifted in the black, mouths stretched wide in endless screams I couldn’t hear. Some were torn, others broken, their eyes rolled back in eternal torment. This was no ordinary haunting. It was psychological horror made flesh.
Then I saw my own reflection among them skin flayed, lips cracked, whispering words I couldn’t comprehend. The sight made my stomach twist. This was no ghost story. It was something worse.
The entity appeared behind me, taller than before, its body snapping into impossible shapes. Its grin split wider than any human jaw. It didn’t attack it only gestured toward the void.
The faces turned in unison, their jaws cracking as they whispered:
“It’s not the house. It’s you.”
I stumbled back, but the floor rippled like liquid flesh. Shadows coiled around my ankles, dragging me toward the black abyss. My pulse thundered, but all I heard was silence a silence that screamed louder than death.
The mirror shards glowed faintly, and my reflection inside the void smiled at me. That was when I understood: this wasn’t just a creepy haunted house story. The house wasn’t alive. It wasn’t haunted.
It was becoming me.
As I was pulled into the sea of faces, their cold flesh brushed mine. Their whispers drilled through my skull. The house didn’t simply collect voices it recorded souls.
Now, I wasn’t escaping. I was part of its supernatural horror fiction, another prisoner in its archive of screams.
The House That Listened had claimed me.
