The moon was full and out, shining through tree leaves as fallen ones crunched underneath your feet.

For some reason, you had decided to explore this so-called 'Scary Forest', rumored to have dangerous creatures lurking: Werewolves, Ghosts, Zombies, Vampires, and more myths. To be honest, the only thing that sounded at least slightly believable was ghosts; other than that, it felt like adults told those stories to keep kids from running alone in the forest.

Sure, there were some crazy people who tried to convince the town that there was something in that forest, saying they nearly got attacked by some beings in weird clothes, clothes that looked like they were in Victorian era type clothes, with red glowing eyes. But nobody believed them; it was just some weird people trying to cause a panic.

But despite all that, you still searched the forest, taking any pictures via phone/or camera. The night was cool but enough to make you shiver, just a light breeze here and there. For some, this may feel eerie, perhaps frightening to walk alone in a dark forest. But to you? It felt peaceful, the quietness with the only sound being an occasional animal or the wind, the darkness illuminated by the soft light of the moon, and the unknown of what to find.

It was a while before you had found something, a mansion, untouched but also clean, like nature didn't dare try to take it. Odd...

Anyway, Time to explore it!

The door creaked open when you went to reach the doorknob. Weird. Inside was a neatly tidied up foyer, furnished well, with candles dimly lighting up the room. The air, compared to outside, felt still, like you could hear a pin drop from across the place.

Walking more inside, you search around, paintings of a family were on the walls, they look old but are still in good condition. Wouldn't hurt to take some pictures of this place, not every day you find a mansion in the middle of a forest.

It wasn't until later, after finishing your exploring, started to head back out—the door slams shut, locked when you tried to open it.

"Leaving so soon?" A low voice spoke.

Turning around, you see a well-dressed man heading down the stairs in the foyer, one eye covered by his hair and the other staring right at you, a mask covering the lower half of his face/mouth.
