As the disquisition continued, the police uncovered more and more substantiation of the former possessors' crimes. They set up torture chambers in the basement, bloodstains on the walls, and journals detailing each victim's prisoner and demise.

The Forrester family could not believe that they had been living in a house of horrors. They felt violated and traumatized, and they knew they could noway stay in that house again.

As they packed up their things, the family could not help but wonder what had happed to the former possessors. Were they caught and doomed to life in captivity? Were they still out there, free to kill again?

The Forrester family decided that they could not stay in the same city. They demanded a fresh launch, a new morning, far down from the horrors they had endured. They packed up their auto and drove out into the evening, leaving the agony of their old home behind.

But no matter where they went, the memory of their old home visited them. They could not escape the feeling that they were being watched, that the ghosts of the former possessors were still lurking in the murk.

The Forrester family noway forgot what they had endured. They knew that they could noway truly escape the horror of their old home, but they tried their stylish to move on and produce a new life for themselves.

As for the former possessors, their fate remains unknown. The police noway caught them, and they could still be out there, hiding in plain sight, staying for their coming victims to come on.

The Forrester family's agony was far from over, and they knew that they would noway be suitable to forget the horrors they had witnessed. But they also knew that they were lucky to have survived, and they were determined to live their lives to the fullest, no matter what horrors may lie ahead.

As the Forrester family drove down from their old home, they could not help but feel a sense of relief marshland over them. They were leaving behind the horrors of their history and starting again. But as they drove further down, the feeling of apprehension crept back by.

They arrived at their new home, a antique little house on the outskirts of a small city. It was nothing like their old home, but it was perfect for them. They disburdened their things and started to make it their own.

They sluggishly made their way to the basement, flashlights in hand. As they descended the stairs, they were hit by the reek of decay. The smell was unmistakable it was the same smell that had visited them in their old home.

As they reached the bottom of the stairs, they saw a figure standing in the corner. It was the ghostly apparition of one of the former possessors, gaping at them with empty eyes.

The family tried to run, but the apparition followed them, moving through the walls as if they were not indeed there. They could hear the sound of steps following them through the house, and they knew they had to get out before it was too late.

They piled into their auto and drove down as presto as they could, leaving their new home behind. They drove until they reached a motel on the outskirts of the city, too hysterical to go any farther.

The family huddled together in the motel room, too spooked to sleep. They knew that the ghosts of the former possessors were still hanging them, and they did not know how to escape.

Days turned into weeks, and the family was still living in the motel room. They had nowhere differently to go, and they could not bear the study of going back to their old home or their new home.

As they sat in the room, they heard a knock at the door. It was the original sheriff, asking to speak to them about their old home. The family was reluctant at first, but they knew they had to defy their history in order to move on.

The sheriff explained that they had caught one of the former possessors, who had been living in the forestland girding their old home. He'd been surviving off of creatures and had been hiding from the law for times.

As they packed up their things formerly again, the family could not help but wonder if they would ever be suitable to escape the horrors of their history. They knew that the recollections would noway truly leave them, but they were determined to move on and produce a new life for themselves.

The family drove down, leaving behind the motel room and their old home. They did not know where they were going, but they knew that as long as they were together, they could face anything.

As the family drove down, the sun started to set behind them. It was a beautiful sight, but the family could not enjoy it. They were still visited by the recollections of the former possessors and the horrors they had left before.

But as they drove, they began to notice commodity. The air smelled fresher, and the decor came more beautiful with each passing afar. The family realized that they were leaving behind the darkness and heading towards a new morning.

They arrived at a new city, where they set up a small house to rent. It was nothing like their old home or their new home, but it was perfect for them. They could start over, make new recollections, and leave the horrors of the history before.

As they settled in, the family could not help but feel a sense of relief marshland over them. They were eventually free from the ghosts of the former possessors and the horrors they had endured. They were starting a new life, together as a family.
