Then, he heard a quiet meow behind him. He felt a huge relief. It was a big grey cat looking at him with its green eyes. He calmly straightened up. „I must conquer my fear and discover what or who made that loud bang,“ said Charles to himself. He went up the stairs as quietly as possible and slowly peaked through the door. There was no one in the attic, or that is what he thought. Suddenly, a black cat quickly attacked him and tried to scratch him with its sharp claws. Charles fought back and threw the cat on the floor. He quickly ran down the stairs and opened the creaking door. In corner of his eye, he saw that there were a least five cats running after him. He opened the creaking front door and ran in what he thought what the direction of his boarding school. Luckily, he made it to the boarding school and saw that his friend was waiting for him. When he saw Charles all puffed up, he asked him: “What happened?” Charles replied „I'm exhausted right now. I'm going straight to bed. I might tell you the whole story tomorrow,“ and went to his room.

He hesitantly turned around but saw nothing. ´How strange – I must be imagining things` Charles mumbled underneath his breath. He decided to check out the interior of the castle and started slowly walking around the center of the room. Everything looked like it was taken straight out of a horror movie: the spiderwebs draped over the portraits could also be found tucked into the corners of the room, a thick layer of dust coated the furniture, the broken windows were not doing the best job at keeping the chilly air from seeping in... More and more unease filled Charles' mind the closer he got to the attic. The door was wide open. ´What kind of hidden possessions could be stored in here?` Charles wondered while putting on the flashlight app on his phone, but he didn’t get the chance to find out – the door slammed shut. Panic washed over him as he started sprinting towards the exit. ´Forget the cold - I must get out of here! This is abnormal!` his mind was running 100 miles per hour. He only calmed down when he was safely tucked in on his bed. ´I'm never stepping a foot inside that castle again.` But oh, the irony.  The next morning, Charles couldn’t seem to find his phone anywhere. ´Please don’t tell me I left it there` Charles muttered, the dread evident in his voice. Unfortunately, he had to go back. The castle seemed somewhat normal during the day and Charles quickly found his phone on the ground near the attic. Back in his room, Charles unlocked his phone and found himself surprised when he saw his camera app opened instead of the flashlight one. He couldn’t have predicted the shock he would feel by looking at his latest photo. The photo represented him, surrounded by darkness with only the faint light of the phone screen accentuating his features, and behind him stood a tall, pale woman in a white dress with hair as dark as coal and completely white eyes, her jaw unhinged.

The End

Then, Charles  found out that was Frankenstein with was holding an axe. Charles saw a closet and he quickly …? When Frankenstein left the area, Charles ran out of the closet. He saw a broken window and rushed to it. Frankenstein saw him and threw his axe at him.  Luckily, he misses. When Charles came out of the castle, he saw a taxi. He gently asked; “Can I get into the car, please? “.  The taxi driver said yes but asked: „Why are you in this place so late?"  Charles responded: ,, I’ll tell you later, Just drive!“ .

„Who's that?“ he said with a trembling voice. He started sweating and breathing heavily. Standing there, while his body was shaking, he was coming up with the worst possible scenarios in his head. Finally, he found the courage to turn around and face whoever was standing there. He turned around, expecting to see something frightening, but he didn't see anything except long dark halls filled with even more terrifying portraits. Somehow, that scared him even more.

He heard a door opening from another room. „It's the wind.” he said quietly. The clock was ticking. It was almost midnight but that didn't bother him. He went deeper inside. It was darker. A bat flew past him. „Wow! That was close! “ he said, „I wonder where that came from! “The door, from which bat came from, was locked. His heart started pumping even faster. While he was walking through the hall of portraits, one of the portraits was calling his name. Charles nervously turned around. „Who said that? “ He felt dizzy. His head started spinning.
„You're going to be okay “, a man, in a police suit said. „I'm going to take you to the car'" Charles looked at him confusedly. „Excuse me, what? What car?", he paused, "what happened?" The police officer turned around. "You're in a haunted castle. Various murders took place here." They heard loud footsteps approaching. "You should get out of here, quickly!" the police officer said while pointing Charles through which door enter to get away from there. "You should get away from here too!" Charles said in a trembling voice. "I'm going to be okay, now run as fast as you can!"

That was the last time he heard from that police officer.

„Did I deserve this? “, he thought. He stood and waited to see what would happen. He could no longer feel the breath on his neck, so he gathered his courage and turned around. There was no one behind him, but a trembling voice calling his name rang out from the attic. „Charles, Charles “. Charles
asked in a shaky voice: „What do you want? “„Who are you? “The only response he got were cold shivers. Blood began to freeze in his veins. „It is one of my friends joking. “, he thought. He was brave and started to explore the attic. At the same moment, lighting was heard striking the knight's shield through the small window. Under the shield he noticed a pair og green eyes watching him. In these green eyes he saw the sadness and fear that he himself felt. He removed the shield and he saw a little black kitten under it. It was crying. As soon as he saw it, Charles decided the cat would be his. He took the cat and ran out of the castle as quickly as possible. „I will never forget this day! “, he said to
himself.

Charles turned round and saw a ghostly woman with long white hair and a pale face. She reached out her hand to Charles, and he felt a cold sensation creep up his arm. Suddenly, the ghostly woman vanished into thin air, leaving Charles alone in the dark castle. He tried to escape, but
the front door would not open. As he walked through the corridors, he sensed that someone was watching him. At that moment, he heard a voice calling out to him. It was his best friend who had come to rescue him. Together they escaped from the haunted castle and swore never
to return.

He thought he was just paranoid, so he went further on exploring the castle. He went through rooms,
searched all the closets and found nothing but some old belongings. 'They look like they are from the 17th century.' Charles still felt followed the whole time. Charles saw a really weird portrait that creeped him out. It was a portrait of a man with big smaragd green eyes with blue eyeshadows and large rosy cheeks that looked unreal. „Creepy“ he thought. The man also had those small paper white lips and a massive forehead. The portrait got green thought the years, and it was covered in dust. It looked like some monster. „Ha, I wonder what he really looked like.“ Then, that big old doors closed with a loud creaking sound. „Some old doors too.“ He
said to himself a bit scared and confused. He heard some voices from downstairs. „Didn't we close the doors?“ said an older voice confusedly. „Yea, I think we did. It was probably just strong wind“ said a bit younger voice. „Oh no, I must get away quickly!“ thought Charles. He was scared. He heard them pulling a lifeless deer with them. Charles quickly closed all drawers that he opened moments ago. Those people went to what Charles thought was the dining room. “I'm still impressed that we found this deer“ said the elderly man. ” Me too. It almost escaped“, said the younger guy. Then a loud and dusty wind blew through the old house. ”That is my sign“ said Charles and ran out. The doors creaked again but he didn't look back he just run. He ran till he saw a small brown trail in the dark forest. It was winter and all the trees were naked, so in the dark it looked more terrifying. He
followed trail in a way thought he could get out of the dark forest. He slowly approached his school. Charles saw his friends and went quickly closer „Hey guys you wouldn't believe me what I found“. His friends looked confused „Where have you been? We have waited for you for half an hour.“ they asked a bit of scared for their friend knowing that he came on foot. Charles assured them that he was
fine by saying:„ Guys I'm fine but you would not believe what I have seen. I was in some old castle that is in this dark forest.“ They were confused and they exclaimed:„ There is no castle in the forest. What are you talking about?“ Charles thought „How do you mean there is no castle? Where was I? Who were those men I heard and what happened to that deer?“

Charles slowly turned around to face the figure behind him, only to find his best friend John, grinning mischievously. "Gotcha!" John exclaimed. "You scared the life out of me, John!" he exclaimed. "I couldn't resist. I saw you walking towards the castle and decided to give you a scare." Charles shook his head and chuckled. "Well, you certainly succeeded. Come on, let's get out of here before we freeze to death." The two boys left the castle together, walking back towards their boarding school with the moon shining brightly above them. Charles couldn't help but feel grateful for his friend's company and for the fact that there were no real ghosts haunting the castle after all.
