There once haunted house

The house had become a popular

By FM GHOSTPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

There once was a haunted house on the edge of town, a sprawling mansion with towering windows and a wraparound porch. The house had been abandoned for years, and it had a reputation for being haunted by the ghost of a woman who had died there many years ago. People whispered that she had been murdered by her husband, and that her spirit still roamed the halls, seeking revenge.

The house had become a popular spot for thrill-seeking teenagers to visit, despite the warnings from the local police. But no one had ever returned from the house, and the rumors about the ghost only grew.

One summer evening, a group of five teenagers, two boys and three girls, decided to break into the house to see if the rumors were true. They were tired of hearing the same old ghost stories and wanted to see the haunted house for themselves.

As they entered the house, they felt a chill run down their spine and the hairs on the back of their necks stood up. The air was musty and the rooms were cluttered with old furniture and cobwebs. They made their way up the creaky stairs, giggling nervously and trying to reassure each other that there was nothing to be afraid of.

Suddenly, they heard the sound of footsteps coming from upstairs, and a ghostly figure appeared at the top of the stairs. The figure was dressed in a long white dress, and her hair was long and tangled. Her eyes were empty and she seemed to be staring straight through them.

Terrified, the teenagers ran back outside, never to return to the haunted house again. But they couldn't shake the feeling that they were being watched, and they always felt like they were being followed. And whenever they passed by the house, they could still hear the sound of ghostly footsteps coming from inside.

The rumors about the haunted house only grew, and people whispered about the ghost of the woman who still roamed the halls, seeking revenge on anyone who dared to enter. Some said that the woman had been wronged and that she was seeking justice for her murder. Others said that she was seeking revenge for being wronged in life, and that she would stop at nothing to get it.

Despite the warnings, there were still some who were brave enough to enter the house, only to never return. The house became a place to be avoided, and people would cross the street to avoid walking by it.

Years went by, and the house remained abandoned, a dark and eerie presence on the edge of town. But then, one day, the house was bought by a wealthy man who wanted to restore it to its former glory. He hired a team of workers to clean up the house and repair it, and soon, the once-haunted house was a beautiful and welcoming home once again.

However, the rumors about the ghost of the woman never went away. People still whispered about her, and some claimed that they had seen her wandering the halls of the house. But the new owner paid no attention to the rumors, and he lived in the house with his family for many years.

One day, the owner died, and the house was once again abandoned. And the rumors about the ghost of the woman began to circulate once again. Some said that she was seeking revenge on the new owner for not believing in her presence, and that she was seeking justice for her murder once and for all.

And to this day, the haunted house on the edge of town remains a place to be avoided, and the ghost of the woman is still rumored to roam the halls, seeking revenge on anyone who dares to enter. But no one knows the truth, and no one knows what really happened in that

house on the edge of town, and whether the ghost of the woman still haunts it. The house remains a mystery and a source of fascination and fear for those who dare to venture near it.
