Rumors were, there was a vampire still living at the top of the hill, in the abandoned Victorian castle. Tho, even tho its been years, the roses still thrive well and have not died at all. No one's been up there, so how are they still alive?

People dont dare to enter. People barely made it through the door without feeling light headed or sick.

You were walking up the hill, finally making it to the castle, looking at the beautiful engraving of the castle, the stone floor in front of the doors. You didnt fear anything for some reason.

You walked through the front doors, looking around, seeing paintings, the grand double staircase, chandeliers, and more. Everything was beautiful.

You touch the staircase railings and explored the first floor.

You then go into an office, walls filled with books, the floor red velvet carpet, desk chairs.

You see the fire place, and two candle sticks resting on top of them. You notice something, one of them seems a bit worn out than the other one. You touch it. It feels, wiggly, but its like its connected too. You grip it and pull, casuing gears to turn.

You backed up seeing the wall/fireplace move to the side, your eyes widening. You slowly step in, and see a large spiral staircase going down.

Your body tells you no, but your mind says yes.

You walk down the stairs and see a corridor, you walk. Your shoes clicking against the stone path.

You get to a door, and open it, youe heart dropping. Seeing a coffin and candles lit around it.

You walk to it and touch it, and you see a painting of a male, fair skin, black hair, holding a woman. A woman with (color hair), (any color skin) and (eye color). You stare at it as the woman looks exactly like you.

You shakily breathes and open the casket, revealing....the rumors of the village.

The creature of the nights.

You slowly go to touch his face, until...

His eyes shot open, and he sits up grabbing your neck and slams you against the wall, You cry out in pain at how fast and hard it was. His eyes red, fangs out.

He goes to attack but stops, looking in your eyes.

You shake, staring at him with fear.

He slowly pulls away, but hand still on your collarbone/neck. He quickly looks at his portrait and then back at you fast. "V victoria?" He whispers

Victoria, that must be the name of his old wife.

You slowly shake your head "no no.." I whisper "im not her"

He stares at you, a saddened look on his face "you look so much like her" he said, touching your face suddenlt and caressing. He quickly pulls away and turns, walking to the wall the portrait was hanging. He slams his fist against the wall, his head going against it too. "Why are you here? You must leave..." he said. "I cannot drink or eat you...you...it would be like im hurting her if I did"
