A Terrifying Encounter with a Malevolent Entity

Haunted House Horror

By MaryPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

The voice had been etched into my memory like a scar, as it was unlike anything I had ever heard before. It was low and threatening, like a growl from purgatory. The words "get out" had been yelled so loudly that they seemed to reverberate throughout the home. The air around me had altered, and the atmosphere had thickened and oppressive, suffocating me with its malevolence, as if the entity itself had materialized in the room. I could feel the hairs on the back of my neck stand up, and a chill went down my spine.

I could sense the entity's presence all around me, like a suffocating blanket threatening to crush me. The chamber had become darker as if the air itself had thickened and blocked out the light.

As I hastily packed my belongings, the musty smell of the house seemed to intensify. It was as if the scent of ancient books and decay had seeped into the very fabric of the walls, permeating every inch of the room.

The drafts, which I had dismissed earlier as quirks of an old house, now felt like a malevolent power, as if the entity was using them to play with me. The shadows on the walls moved with unearthly energy as if they were living and moving on their own.

When I eventually left the house, it felt like a weight had been lifted from my shoulders. The unease that had persisted had subsided, but the fear stayed.

I found no comfort in my friend's apartment. Fear was with me all the time, lurking in every cranny of the room. Even as I tried to relax, the sensation of being watched lingered, like eyes boring into the back of my head.

When the paranormal investigator came, it was as if a ray of hope had broken through the darkness. However, I could sense her unease as she entered the home. Her movements became more deliberate and slow as if she was aware that peril lurked around every corner.

The air around her seemed to change as if there was a storm forming on the horizon. The equipment she had brought had beeped and whirred with an intensity that matched my own heartbeat, picking up unusual readings that indicated the entity's presence. The entity seemed to be responding to her presence.

As she started the EVP interview, the voice spoke again, its tone angrier and more aggressive than before. It was as if the entity had grown more potent as a result of our efforts to expel it.

The cleansing ritual felt like a pointless practice. The sage burned with a sweet, earthy fragrance that filled the room, but the malevolence remained. It was as if the creature was mocking our efforts to expel it.

In the days that followed, the sense of unease had grown worse. The air had become heavier, and the shadows on the walls had begun to sway frantically. The entity's presence was just out of sight, waiting for the right time to strike. It was as if the entity was taunting us, challenging us to test its might.

When I saw the ghostly figure at the foot of my bed again, its eyes burning with rage, I knew it was time for me to leave. Fear had engulfed me, suffocating me like a vise grasp that threatened to crush me.

Even years afterward, I can still sense the entity's presence. It's like a dark cloud follows me everywhere I go, a continuous reminder of the terror I felt in that haunted home. The events of that night continue to haunt me, and I can't help but think if the entity continues to hunt for its next victim.
