Vatican's Manor

Vaticans Manor



A thick shaft of the moons light shone downwards on the crumbling foundations of Vatican’s Manor illuminating the planked walls in an eerie light. The thick brass gates creaked back and forth as a gust of icy wind blew past the house.

The roses before the mauled steps, leading to the front door, wilted downwards towards the ground casting a frightening shadow across the dying grass.

Claw marks slashed the rotting window sills. What looked liked blood, pooled in the deep groves. A soft glow of fire licked behind the dust covered windows awaiting its prey.


Halloween- A night for dressing in ghoulish costumes and trick or treating though the streets claiming candy from people behind pale doors.

On Parkinson’s Road the Halloween night is all but a candy filled shamble. When the moon is full, the chirping of the crickets dims to a deathly silence, and the thick of night envelops the dying twilight, the games begin…

A group of youths enter Vatican’s manor in hope of winning extra candy…Instead they recieve more of a fright than they expected.

Ghouls of all shapes and sizes, angered spirits and dark lurchers inhabit the walls of the manor claiming live souls for a chance to feel “Reborn”.

The Game is simple:

Stay in the manor till sun up and you get extra candy. Come out of the Manor before the sun rises to its peek and the souls of the damned will come after you for their revenge.

Plot:

You are one of the group to enter the house on a foolish dare, the prize, all the children’s candy. Little do you know what awaits you behind the doors of the manor, you set out to seek your reward.

When you get in the Manor, everything you thought from a few cobs webs and rat skeletons change and the creatures of the night come out to play…

Flaws:He doesn't trust at all, often pushing others away.

Other:Up for love.

Great Profiles guys! I guess I'm going to start now, and here we going!

Chrissie~

“Trick or treat!” I trilled at the elderly standing shiftily in the front door. A smile broke across her face as she pulled out a dish filled with taffy’s.

“It’s a little late to be trick or treating little girl” She said her hands shaking with old age. I shook my head opening my bag, “No ma’am this is when the good sweets come out!”

Nodding she dropped the taffy’s into the fake pumpkin lantern, “Lots of things come out at this hour”. A gust of icy wind blew at my face making me wince, the hair on my neck standing on end.

The door closed simultaneously leaving me in the eerie darkness. Turning away I began to walk down the stairs, “What did she mean?” I cocked my head to the side and shrugged.

Scuffing the dirt with my foot I listened out for more voices. There was a few here and there but not as much as there had been. I turned back to stare at my house on the corner of the street. Was Mum drinking again? Was Luke there, or was he working?

I shook my head, “Tonight’s for lollies nothing else”. I crashed into something hard, groaning I fell on to the hard floor, my pumpkin lantern skimming away from me.

**Anyone can come in.

Lexie "Lex"

"Ow," I whined, as my head collied with something hard. My bag dropped to the ground, along with my body.
" Ouch," someone else said. I hadn't realized I bumped into a person. I stood up quickly and dusted off my coustume.
" I'm so sorry," I trilled. I offered a hand to her and she quickly stood.
" It's okay," glancing behind me, her face contorted. " Who are they?" I looked behind me and mentally slapped myself for forgetting.
" Rowan and Jake. I had to force them to come with me. You see, I don't like being alone, especially at night. By the way, i'm Lexie."
" Chrissy," she replied. " Sorry I bumped into you." I laughed and continued walking.
" Not your fault," Blaire hissed," if miss fairy queen over there wouldn't have been rushing to The Manor, we wouldn't have had this problem." I stuck my tounge out at her and continued forward.
" The Manor," Chrissy stuttered. " You can't mean the Vactian's Manor."
" Yeah," Jake said silently, sounding a bit bored. " The Vactian's Manor." He made a few downwind ghost noises and I gave him a pointed look.
" Well," I said, nudging her in the arm," wanna come?"

Blaire Rowan:

I yawned, bored. Jake was making ghost noises again, while Lexie helped up the girl she'd walked into.

"Oi, when do we move?" I asked, pushing Jake away from me when he got too close.

Lexie turned towards me, pulling the girl-Chrissy, I think her name was-around with her.

"Right now," Lexie said, grinning. "Just as soon as Chrissy here makes up her mind."

I shrugged and pulled my hood up, ignoring the glares from Mr. Marine nearby. Jake was adjusting his helmet now. I snickered and turned away so they couldn't see my face.

There it was, at the far end of the street. Vatican's Manor. Just waiting for us, the place we were going to spend the night in.

"Well," I said, turning back to Jake, Lexie and Chrissy. "What are we waiting for? Let's go!" I looked around and frowned. "Hang on a second. Where'd Mr. Fangs go?"

Ben:

Ben stood up from the park bench he was perched. He hadn't particpated in the halloween
night of getting candy and black mailing people into thinking that you'll trick them if they don't
hand it over.

Ben shook his head he never liked that stuff. Digging his fingers into his pants he began to walk
towards Blaire, Jake and Lexie, the people he had been walking around with the whole night.
They wanted, no planned to go into Vatican's Manor to get the other kids lollies from their
fingers.

"There you are!" Lexie beemed a smile breaking across her face. Ben turned to see another girl
standing next to them.
"Alright, I'll go with you then" She nodded patting the pumpkin lantern.
"Great!" Lexie said turning towards the end of the road where the manor stood. It look horrific,
"Are you guys sure you want to go in there?" Ben asked nervously scratching his arm.
"I don't see why not" Blaire muttered shrugging her shoulders. Jake blinked before pointing
down the streets.

"Do we have to go to those kids to start this bet thing?" He asked. Ben looked down the road
to see three though look teenagers standing a few metres away from the Manor. A few daring
little children in famcy costumes stood next to them waging their lolly baskets.

"Yep!" Lexie cried jumping into a fast walk, "We have to go to those goons and get out
bet!"

Lexie-

I started towards the group of guys, pushing my way through a few small children.
" Hey," one of them said," how can we help you today?"
" I'm just going to cut to the chase, I bet you all 60 dollars each that we can stay in the Manor all night." All three of the guys discussed something in a circle.
" 60 dollars each is a lot of money. How about raising the stakes? Two nights." I rolled my eyes.
" We have famalies, smart one. One night, take it or lose it."
" Fine," another one said," but everyone," he said, eyeing Chrissy," has to stay in, or no deal."
" Got it," I said while turning towards the manor," okay guys, you all ready for this?" Rowan shrugged, the guys just grunted, and Chrissy whimpered. " Great!" I took off for the gate.

Jake

Well, this was just getting better and better. I hadn't originally wanted to go along, but Rowan had convinced me to join her, and as she was just about my only friend, I had agreed. I hadn't seriously thought that they were going to go in; I figured once the girls caught sight of the spooky old place, they'd freak, giving us a good excuse to go somewhere else.

Not that I was scared of the house, mind you. I could take it any day. But I was pretty sure that weird stuff went on in there, supernatural or not. Like the time the neighbor's cat, Ruffles, had somehow gotten locked into the manor - two days after the meowings were finally heard and a rescue team barged in, the cat was found dead. No, worse than dead - ripped apart. It was pretty disgusting, and had been the talk of the neighborhood for ages. Ever since that time, people had stayed far away from the place.

Somehow, though, we had gotten into this mess of staying the entire night there. I hid my unease by joking around and plotting how I would scare the others in the manor. Rowan, of course, never scared easily, but I figured Lexie and maybe this new girl Chrissy would be a couple of good screamers. All it would take was a white sheet, some creaky stairs, and bam! I'd be sure to have a great prank. I smiled in anticipation as Lexie thrashed out the details of the dare with the guys who had started it.

"Okay guys," she said as we walked towards the manor, "you all ready for this?"

"Sure," I said with a shrug.

She raced off to the gate, skipping and looking for all the world like a little black fairy. I elbowed Rowan. "What do you think? She going to last the night?"

Rowan gave me a withering look. "Does it matter?"

I shrugged again good-naturedly. "Hey Ben," I called to the other guy in the group, "have you ever been in the manor?"

He shook his head, a little sadly. Well, this wasn't exactly the most talkative bunch, but whatever. I was here for the sole purpose of hanging with my friend; there was also the added bonus of being able to say I spent the night in the creepiest place in town.

We reached the gates, and Lexie slowly pushed the gate open, making it creak. We all stood in front of the open gates, staring up at the manor before us. Seeing as no one was making a move, I stepped forward.

"What are we waiting for?" I asked, and waltzed through, leading the way. As I walked along the broken stone path, I couldn't help but notice something move at the side of the manor.

What the heck was that? Eh. Probably another cat.

We came to the steps of the porch, and I led the group up, going slowly to make sure no rotting boards would give way beneath my feet. Once we reached the door, I twisted the doorknob and it opened, swinging in with surprisingly no noise. That was even creepier than if it had squeaked. I glanced back at the others behind me.

"In we go!" I said, shouldering my fake machine gun with a cocky grin and eliciting a nervous giggle from Chrissy. Then we all stepped into the manor.

The door slammed shut behind us.
