The door slammed behind me .
I was
alone in the room. Or was I…The room
was quite dark and dust filled the air.
It was cold too, like there was a ghost
in the room. I edged towards the
window, in hope of light. To my
disappointment, I found them boarded
up. “Oh no,” I muttered under my
breath as the realisation hit me that I
would have to stay here in the darkness.
I heard something move behind me . It
didn't sound human, however it may have
just been that my nerves were on edge . I
panicked desperately, looking around the
room for somewhere to hide. I guessed the
sound came from near the entrance , so I ran
to the opposite side of the room. I hid
behind the largest object I could find , a
piano. As I hid , I could feel the damp wall
behind my back . I was shivering with fear.
The noise crept closer towards me and it
began to sound like slithering. The hairs on
my neck stood on end.
The sound moved closer but then it
hushed. I heard a creak as the lid of the
piano was opened, followed by the
sound of the keys being played. Then
whatever it was started playing a slow
sad song before suddenly stopping. Then
I heard it move again . I was so scared I
almost forgot to breathe. Then I looked
up and a pair of golden eyes were
watching me . I knew then it wasn't
human .
