The Woman in the Red Car

The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window, then a silhouette of a shadow appeared by the window. It looked like a silhouette of a small child. All a sudden, it looked like the candle was picked up and thrown against the window with a horrific sound of a scream. Suddenly, two more shadow silhouettes appeared by the window, they seemed to be very upset with each other. Their movements were so telling that it was scary the noises they were making to each other, as to be communicating something so horrific. The smallest “child” was the one with the worst horrible scream. A mile away, three teenagers, Nena, Adam, and Kaya were camping with their parents, when they heard the screams. They followed each other to find out where the screaming was coming from. Thinking it was another kid needing help, they decided not to tell their parents. As they got closer to the screams, they became more scared. They decided to go back to their camping area, when they noticed the cabin that had the noises was too dark and too scary. Trying to run back to their cabin, they realized they were lost. All three were screaming for help, but no one was around there to hear them. When they screamed for help, different kind of horrific screams came from all around them. The faster they ran, the more lost they became. Trying to find their way back to their cabin, they ran into a headless body that was hanging on a tree. Their screams of desperation were horrific, especially Adams, who was the youngest of the three. They ran and ran faster to get back to their cabin. The more they ran, the more lost they became. They were running so fast, that they didn’t realize what was in front them. Suddenly, Nena tripped and fell on a decapitated head of a child. They felt like they were going to die, even though, they didn’t see anything around them or chasing them. One by one, they disappeared. Nena vanished when she fell and tripped on the decapitated head of a child. Kaya and Adam decided to run as fast as they could to get help. The faster they ran, the further they got lost. Kaya kept running and screaming for help and her echoes could be heard in the woods. Suddenly, she turns around to tell Adam to run faster, but Adam is nowhere to be seen. Kaya became more and more terrified and scared like she had never been, even though, she was the toughest of the three. Not only would she scream for help but would cry so hard that she could feel the fear in her body. A lot of the times, she felt like giving up, but the thought of not finding her siblings gave her more strength to keep going and to try finding some help. Kaya kept running and running, until she spots a street with traffic in it on her way and decided to stop a car and ask for help. She felt that was the only way out. A red car stopped with a middle-aged woman driving it and offered Kaya some help. Kaya got into the red car thinking she was safe. Crying hysterically, she tells the woman the horror that had been happening since her and her sibling’s left their parents’ cabin. Without a word, the woman starts driving. Kaya realized that the woman in the red car was taking her back to the cabin, where all the screams were coming from, in the beginning. Scared to death, Kaya starts begging the women to please take her to her parent’s cabin and to let her go. The woman looks at her and gives her the evilest grin kaya has ever seen. Getting closer and closer to the cabin, Kaya hears all the horrible cries and screams coming from inside the cabin. Once the woman in the red car takes Kaya inside the cabin, all the screams and horrific sounds stopped. Nena, Adam and Kaya were never found, dead or alive.
