Someone opened their eyes.
They were in the middle of the street. In front of a dark house.
Someone´s head was spinning wildly. They could barely stand.
So Someone took a step forward the house.
And the second Someone´s foot touched the ground, they were inside of it.
Someone jumped when an strident sound resonated in their ears.
It was a clowny voice.
"WELCOME LITTLE ONE! YOU´RE INSIDE THE FUN HOUSE! I KNOW, A VERY ORIGINAL NAME" the voice laughed "WELL, WELL, WELL, WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO, LITTLE ONE?"
The voice interrupted Someone´s attempt to open the black wooden door. It didn´t matter how hard they tried to push, or how hard they tried to pull, the door wouldn´t move an inch.
"OHHHH, I SEE. YOU WANNA GET OUT! OH WELL, THAT´S UNFORTUNATE" The clown said before burst into laughter. "TELL ME, LITTLE ONE, WHAT DO YOU SEE AROUND?"
Someone took a quick look. It was as dark as a wolf´s mouth. But they could see an speaker in one of the corners of the ceiling. They also saw shadowy corridors, with no end in sight.
"DARLING WE HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON RIGHT NOW! CAN´T YOU SEE?" Someone couldn´t tell at all "YOU´RE INSIDE -OUR- HOUSE" the clowny voice started to turn deep and whistling "WE´RE BORED DARLING. PLAY WITH US!" What little Someone could see started getting darker.
"PLAY WITH, US LITTLE ONE!"
The inhuman voice screamed.
"PLAY!"
The speaker broke with a buzzing sound.
Someone had to get out immediatly.
Someone tried to search for a window putting their hands before them trying to feel the walls.
Someone was starting to panic.
Then steps just behind them.
They heard it loud and clear.
But whatever was following them, didn´t move unless Someone started moving.
Someone heard the steps coming closer and closer. "Where is the exit?" they thought to themselves "Why there´s no light in here? There are no windows or what?" Someone thought eaten by frustration.
Someone kept walking and noticed two doors just a few steps away.
Someone could perfectly hear the breathing of whatever was behind them.
"Fuck your stupid game"
They thought running to the door at full speed, opening and closing it as fast as they could.
Someone caught a glimpse of what had been following them, and in sheer terror, they slammed the door closed.
Breathing heavily, Someone put the lock on and slowly stepped back, not getting their eyes off the door.
The door moved violently for a few seconds, but soon enough there was silence.
Someone sighed in relief.
"You should always check the room you enter, little thing" whispered a clowny voice in Someone´s ear.
Someone couldn´t even open their mouth before everything went black.
"Once more"
Someone´s eyes opened.
Someone couldn´t see a thing, but they knew it was the entrance when they touched the wooden door behind them.
They extended their arms and started to guide themselves through the same way from before.
And once again, Someone heard steps.
Someone remembered the path they had followed.
Someone just had to run in a straight line.
But Someone didn´t.
Someone took a step to the left, hearing the thing that followed them did the same.
Then Someone started to walk, only hearing and feeling the wallpaper in their fingertips.
Someone felt how the wall ended and started to extend even farther to the left.
Someone sensed plastic on their fingertips. A switch.
Someone felt the breathing down their neck.
"Please work"
Someone turned on the switch.
An unholy scream came out of the monster behind them, taking it´s deformed limbs to what it was supposed to be their face.
Someone saw a closet just a jump away.
And Someone jumped.
Someone hid on the empty closet just in time.
The thing that followed them turned off the switch, howling like it was hurt.
Someone heard the thing going away, growling at each step.
Someone sensed around before sighing in relief.
Someone found a lantern by their feet.
"Lucky~" they thought to themselves, pointing the lantern to the wall and seeing it worked.
Someone waited, and after what it felt like an eternity, Someone came out.
Someone´s eyes were a little bit more accustomed to the dark, so they could see the corridor and the stairs that were on the end.
No.
Someone´s eyes weren´t accustomed. Someone could see the stairs because there was light.
Someone wanted to make a run for it. But they stopped.
Wasn´t it too easy?
Someone moved to the stairs slowly, but at a sure pace.
Someone could hear the thing coming back.
If only Someone could reach the source of light!
Someone was a few steps away, when a clowny voice talked.
"Where are you going? Don´t you want to play anymore?" Someone turned the lantern on, on the clowny voice´s direction.
Someone hold the impulse to puke.
"Am I that ugly, little thing?" he grinned. His eyes open like plates. Someone felt his blue bloodshot eyes nailed to them. His limbs twisted. His chest teared open enough to see through it.
"I know what will make you happy! A hug!
COME GIVE ME A HUG LITTLE THING!"
The clown started running towards Someone.
Someone ran to the stairs.
"LITTLE THING!!"
Someone kept running, skipping two steps at a time. But the clown kept up like it was nothing.
Someone reached the top and there were two childs. Waiting.
Someone hold back an scream, but one of them took Someone´s hand and started pulling them into a room, while the other stayed there.
Someone could saw how the clown stopped as if he was shut down, before the child threw them to the ground closing the door gently.
Someone tried protesting but the child put his finger on Someone´s lips.
"Shhh" he whispered pointing behind Someone´s back.
Someone looked and had to swallow a gasp.
A thing that looked like the one that followed Someone before, was immovil guarding a door in the other side of the room.
It was such a relief that between them, there was the biggest dinner table Someone had seen in their life.
The child took Someone´s lantern and started making sounds.
Someone saw how the thing threw its head in the sound direction.
The thing sprinted to them. But the child threw the lamp to the door they just came from before grabbing Someone´s hand and while crouched, hurried to the opposite side.
When the thing reached the lantern and broke it with a simple hit, Someone and the child were already outside.
There was a very bright light.
So bright, Someone could barely stand it. However the child seemed not bothered by it.
The child put something cold in Someone´s hand: a key.
"Don´t get close to the witch" he said before running away.
Someone looked stranged at the key in their hand and then looked around.
There were doors and windows all over.
"WHERE ARE YOU DARLING? WE STILL WANT TO PLAY!"
A woman´s voice echoed in the distance.
Someone frantically stood up and tried the key in every door.
"COME ON DARLING! WE JUST WANNA KNOW MORE ABOUT YOU!"
The voice screeched.
Someone´s key didn´t fit any of the locks.
"OPEN UP DAMN IT!"
Someone took a look through the windows too.
Someone saw the street from the beginning.
Someone reached the end of the corridor soon enough. Where only a floor-to-ceiling window annoyingly stood.
The key was useless.
"ARE YOU OVER WITH YOUR SILLY GAMES, DARLING?" The woman asked from behind.
Someone´s turned on their ankles.
Someone´s eyes were red, sweat running through their face.
"WE WON DARLING. YOU WILL STAY HERE NOW!"
Someone put their hand in their chest.
Someone clenched their teeth, their eyes filled with exasperation.
Someone took a deep breath.
The woman started approaching Someone at a steady pace, smiling annoyingly.
But she stopped when the sound of glass breaking echoed in the corridor.
Someone´s hand was in pure red.
Someone panted in pain.
Someone´s feet was covered in glass.
And Someone jumped.
Someone felt how their knees broke hitting the ground.
Then their arms.
And finally their head.
Someone had become a grotesque sculpture in the street´s ground.
Someone saw the clown come closer.
"How boring"
Someone heard before blacking out, once again.
But Someone wasn´t dead.
Because Someone is still dreaming.
