The Murmuring Mansion

I slowly approached the murmuring mansion feeling the damp mud squelching beneath me.
The muddy scent flew up my nose like an arrow being shot from a bow.
All I could see was slippery moss and overgrown plants ambushing the ancient house.
The door creaked open as the breeze flew right past me.
I could hear the wind howling like a wolf in a glistening full moon.
I walked in slowly feeling the floorboards shaking like I was in a hectic earthquake.
The inside of the house murmured. Then, out of the blue the door started to shut.
I sprinted to the exit as if my life depended on it.
BANG! The door slammed shut.
I was stuck inside of a murmuring mansion with no help, food or water to help me survive.
I decided to explore the house so I could find an exit.
A bedroom door creaked open, when suddenly, some kind of monster jumped right through me.
My life flashed before my eyes.
Would I get out? Could I find an escape? I’m stuck…
No one to help, I would never get out.
