Chamber of Horrors Prt.1

 

Halloween is coming up, and the town is already decorated and a haunted house is being prepared, of course, as it has been every year. The lock in has subsided a week ago and Sarah is still debating a costume she wore last year or her costume for this year which, was a plague doctor.

Turns out that 35 and 49 could easily get away going as themselves.

'Finally...some peace and quiet...' Sarah thought as she walked to the lakefront property once again.

"Oh hey! How's the house?" Tom asked while arranging firewood.

"It's going well, the roofs fixed, now," Sarah replied picking up a piece of firewood.

"So, you wanna head to The Pie Palace like old times?"

"Yes," Sarah and tom's usual outing was to go to the diner and mock the haunted house.

When they arrived they ordered their seasonal usual, 2 Pumpkin pies, a tea for Sarah and a coffee for Tom. When they sit down at their table, they just stare at the house.

"They say that place is haunted you know?"

"ENTER THE CHAMBER OF DEATH AND HORRRRROR IF YOU DARE!" Sarah mocked the old woman who welcomed those to the house.

"You have to roll the R there bud," Tom says as he noticed a plague doctor enter the diner.

'What the fuck is he doing!?' Sarah thought as he sat at the bar.

"Nice costume!" Tom says to 49.

He mumbled "thanks," before leaving with a takeout order.

"Are you 100% sure this is a good idea?"

"Eh, he'll be ok, besides, toms going too remember?" Since 35 had a similar mask, they had found a yellow hoodie so he could go as 'Masky' a creepypasta for Halloween.

Of course, you,49 and Tom agreed to a small group costume because you had already decided on the idea.

"You guys are very slow," Tom says walking in in his costume with a brown mask.

"Well, these straps don't tighten themselves!" Sarah says walking out in with her black mask and costume.

"So your John right?" Tom asked 35, the two agreed to keep the true identities of themselves a secret and came up with aliases.

"And, oh! I saw you at the diner right?" Tom asked 49.

He's so loud, poor 49... or should I say...Rick?

"Uh... Yeah, it's rick,"

"It's so fucking dark" John complains treading just behind Tom.

"Then use a flashlight dumbass," Rick says.

Sarah's fear of Dark...long hallways wasn't serving her well, standing as close to the side of the group as she can manage

"They upped their game," Tom said amazed as he turns on the flashlight he got.

"See? nothing John," Rick was on edge, oddly. Even though he was accustomed to living in the dark, both figuratively AND literally.
