Towers with secret doors are FOR FAIRYTALES.

Not ghost stories.

FGS.

There is a ghostly childs laughter , before they disappear in the maze.

The old gardener is clipping the hedges...

If you wake in the night to hear a musical box with a rotating ballerina playing RUN to your neighbour's.

I'm scaring myself now.

My neighbours are ancient.

On the plus side - maybe they have a blunderbuss?

And if I hear a musical box I will shit myself.

Cos we don't have a musical box.

Elderly neighbours with a secret passage...

squoosh · 15/06/2013 00:33

Elderly neighbours, outwardly benign.

Salmotrutta · 15/06/2013 00:35

And where would their secret passage go?...

Probably to my winecellar.

OP posts:
Salmotrutta · 15/06/2013 00:37

Outwardly benign.

Inwardly devil-worshipers. Shock

That's it.

I'm going to Mum and Dad's.

... Who are also very elderly.

Strange symbols in their front room , bits of goat all over the place?

squoosh · 15/06/2013 00:42

You'd be in their dusty and old fashioned sitting room. You would casually glance at a print of a stately home.......with a tower. Upon closer inspection of the tower you would see a tiny figure at the window. Upon even closer inspection you would see that the figure was YOU and that there was an evil creepy thing climbing the tower stairs towards you.

Salmotrutta · 15/06/2013 00:43

A strange painting.

That seems to change every time you look at it.

Salmotrutta · 15/06/2013 00:45
