You turn the flash light on and look around you hear a weary creepy noise it freaks you out so you quickly turn around it was just the heater so you continue to look around but your slightly scared, then you hear the door at the top of the stairs slams so you take a few steps forward in your head you think for some reason you get a little braver you wonder why mixed feelings go through your mind with each step you take. Then you see a door covered with dust you go to it and you open it its a tunnel that looks as if it will go on forever

Click here to go on You choose to stay in the parts of the house you know. You go to the living room and turn on the TV; you turn it to your favorite channel. You decide to go get a sandwich so you go to the cupboard and notice its empty so you check the other cupboards still empty because your mom hasnt gone shopping except for the usual lunch things since moved in the new and creepy old house, so you go to the pantry and under the carpet the floor is creaking so you lift it up and see a trap door. You are looking down at the trap door and all of the sudden it went crazy and it was like something is trying to get out, so you try to unlock it but it wont. The door is locked, you go and make a sandwich from the peanut butter you got from the pantry

If you choose to go down the stairs go to ending 2.1 If you choose to stay up stairs and tell your mom about go to ending 2.2 As you finish it, lots of curiosity has built up because of the door going crazy while you were trying to find the stuff to make a sandwich. You take out your bobby pin and hold it tight in your hand while you walk to the pantry. You get to the pantry hoping the trap door doesnt go crazy. You start to pick the lock and hope that it comes undone but you are struggling. After a hour you finally get the door unlocked. Under the trap door is a set of stairs. You are thinking of the possibilities of what could be at the bottom of the stairs.

You choose to go down the stairs. You start down and hear the boards creaking so you stop and look around. You keep going and get to the bottom and see that you are in a room full of cobwebs. You try to speak but nothing comes out as if you are in space with no air. You begin to choke on a cobweb, and feel dead as you start forward and hear the trap door shut you look up and just know you are never getting out. The door was shut and it couldnt have shut on its own. Someone or something had to have closed it. You begin to scream and you feel as if you swallowed a spider.

Its your best friend he went missing two days ago and no one could find him. Hes tied up in spider webs and is scared to death he come over to you and gives you a big hug and asks if you are okay. You ask how he got down here and how long he has been down here. He tells you hes been down here for two days and his house had a trap door and he followed it and it led to this tunnel. You keep going and the tunnel comes to a four way split. You ask your friend which way you should go. He says you should take the left tunnel because it looks the safest. You take that tunnel and you go on forever.

You come to a door and stop. You open it and there is a long swirly stair well you go up until you feel as if you are going to die. You see a door and go in you come out a book case. You look around and see you are in a library. You go ask the librarian were you are and what time it is. She tells you that it is 5:00. You tell her you have to go. Your mom is supposed to be home at 5:10 so you run out the door and start running home as fast as you can. Luckily you get home at 5:09 and get changed out of your nasty clothes, washed your face, and got in bed. You covered up and your mom came in the downstairs door. You pretend you are asleep and your mom comes in to see if you are okay. She comes over and wakes you up. You tell her you are okay and just very tired. She lets you go back to sleep and you were thinking right at the moment that she left that you were so happy she was finally gone.
