Ishabella arrived

By BijuPublished 3 years ago 4 min read

Once upon a time, there was an old mansion in the countryside that was rumored to be haunted by the ghost of a woman who died in a tragic accident many years ago. The locals believed that the ghost was unhappy and restless, and would often see her wandering around the mansion at night, searching for something or someone.

One day, a young couple named John and Sarah decided to spend a weekend in the mansion. They were fascinated by the history and the mystery surrounding the old building and thought it would be an adventure to stay there for a couple of nights.

As they arrived at the mansion, they were both struck by its beauty and grandeur, but also by the eerie feeling that lingered in the air. They dismissed their uneasiness and settled into their room for the night.

As soon as they went to bed, strange things began to happen. The door creaked open and shut, the curtains rustled even though there was no wind, and they could hear footsteps pacing back and forth outside their door.

John and Sarah tried to ignore the noises and went back to sleep, but they were soon awakened by the sound of a woman's voice. The voice was soft and gentle, but there was a sadness to it that made them shiver.

They got out of bed and followed the voice, which led them to a room on the second floor. As they entered the room, they saw the ghostly figure of a woman standing in front of them. She was beautiful, with long flowing hair and a white dress that seemed to glow in the dark.

John and Sarah were terrified but could not move. They watched in horror as the woman slowly turned her head towards them, revealing her face. Her eyes were empty and hollow, and her mouth hung open in a silent scream.

The couple tried to run, but their legs were like lead, and they could not move. The ghostly figure approached them, and they could feel her cold breath on their faces. They closed their eyes, expecting the worst, but when they opened them again, the ghost was gone.

The rest of the night was filled with strange occurrences, and John and Sarah could not wait for dawn to break so they could leave the mansion. As they left, they heard the same voice again, but this time it was not sad. It was a voice of thanks and gratitude for visiting the mansion and keeping the ghost's memory alive.

John and Sarah never returned to the mansion again, but they would always remember the ghostly encounter they had. They never forgot the feeling of fear and the sense of awe they felt in the presence of the ghost. They also never forgot the voice that had thanked them, and they knew that the woman's spirit had finally found peace.John and Sarah couldn't shake off the eerie feeling that stayed with them long after they had left the mansion. They talked about their experience, and both agreed that they had never felt so scared in their lives. However, they couldn't help but feel drawn to the mansion and the ghost that haunted it.

Days turned into weeks, and weeks turned into months, but John and Sarah couldn't stop thinking about the mansion. They talked about going back, but they were both too scared to face the ghost again. However, curiosity got the better of them, and they decided to return to the mansion one more time.

This time, they were prepared. They had read up on the mansion's history and knew more about the ghost that haunted it. Armed with knowledge and determination, they returned to the mansion, hoping to uncover more about the ghost's past.

As they entered the mansion, they were surprised to see that it looked different from the last time they had been there. The walls were freshly painted, and the furniture looked new. The atmosphere was also different, and there was no longer an eerie feeling in the air.

As they made their way through the mansion, they found a small room that they had never seen before. Inside the room, they found a diary that belonged to the ghost. It contained her story, and they read it with great interest.

The ghost's name was Isabella, and she had lived in the mansion many years ago. She was a young woman who had fallen in love with the owner of the mansion, but her love was unrequited. The owner had married another woman, and Isabella was left heartbroken.

One night, Isabella had gone to the mansion's attic, where she had kept a diary, and had stumbled upon her lover's wife. The two had gotten into a heated argument, which ended in a struggle. Isabella had accidentally pushed the woman, who had fallen down the stairs and died.

Isabella was wracked with guilt and grief and had never recovered from the incident. She had died a few days later, and her spirit had been unable to leave the mansion.

John and Sarah were saddened by Isabella's tragic story, and they finally understood why she had been haunting the mansion all these years. They decided to try and help her spirit find peace.

They gathered a few items that had belonged to Isabella and took them to her grave. As they placed the items on the grave, they heard a soft whisper. It was Isabella's voice, thanking them once again.

John and Sarah left the mansion that day, feeling a sense of closure. They knew that Isabella's spirit had finally found peace, and that they had helped her move on.

Years passed, and John and Sarah eventually got married. They would always remember their encounter with the ghost of Isabella and the impact it had on their lives. They would tell their children and grandchildren the story of the mansion and the ghost that haunted it, and how they had helped her find peace.
