The Poltergeist's Fury: Unseen Forces
The Poltergeist's Fury: Unseen Forces
Sarah never believed in ghosts. To her, they were nothing more than folklore, the stuff of horror movies and campfire tales. But that changed the night she moved into the old Holloway house.
"Are you sure about this place?" asked Daniel, her best friend, as he helped her carry boxes inside. "It’s cheap, it’s spacious, and I needed a fresh start," Sarah replied, forcing a smile.
The house stood at the end of a lonely street, its history tainted by whispers of misfortune. The locals refused to speak of it, only offering her uneasy glances when she mentioned where she would be staying.
The First Signs
The first few nights were uneventful. Then, the disturbances began.
Sarah woke up to the sound of knocking—soft at first, then insistent. She sat up, listening. The knocking came from the walls, the ceiling, everywhere at once.
"Hello?" she called out, her voice trembling.
Silence.
Convinced it was her imagination, she tried to sleep. But then, her bedroom door creaked open on its own.
Sarah's heart pounded. She grabbed her phone and turned on the flashlight, scanning the room. Nothing. Just the oppressive silence that suddenly felt heavier than before.
The Presence
The next day, she confided in Daniel.
"Weird things are happening, Danny. The doors open by themselves, things move when I’m not looking... It’s like I’m not alone." Daniel chuckled. "Maybe you have a poltergeist." "Not funny," she snapped.
That night, the activity escalated. The kitchen cabinets banged open and shut violently. The lights flickered, and an icy gust of wind rushed through the house.
Sarah screamed as her dining chairs lifted off the ground and flipped over.
Then, a voice—a whisper—echoed through the empty space.
"Get out."
Unseen Fury
Daniel arrived the next morning, finding Sarah pale and shaken.
"I can't stay here," she whispered. "Then let’s find out what’s going on," Daniel said.
They searched the house, looking for anything unusual. In the basement, they discovered an old wooden box buried beneath rotting floorboards. Inside were yellowed papers, a rusted locket, and a diary.
Sarah flipped through the pages. "It's from someone named Eleanor... She lived here decades ago. She writes about a terrible accident—her son… he was killed. She believed the house was cursed." Daniel frowned. "What if… she never left?"
The Wrath Unleashed
That night, the air felt electric. Sarah and Daniel stayed up, hoping to communicate with whatever was haunting the house.
"Eleanor?" Sarah called out. "If you’re here, we mean no harm." No response.
Then, the house erupted in chaos. The walls shook, objects flew across the room, and an invisible force shoved Daniel to the ground.
Sarah gasped. "Please, stop! We just want to understand!"
For a moment, silence.
Then, a whisper, filled with sorrow: "Leave… before it's too late."
Daniel grabbed Sarah’s hand. "We’re getting out of here. Now."
The Escape
As they ran to the door, a furious wind slammed it shut. The lights flickered violently. The very air felt thick, suffocating.
Sarah screamed, "Eleanor, please! We’re sorry!"
The room fell deathly still.
Then, the door creaked open.
They didn’t hesitate. They ran, never looking back.
The Aftermath
Days later, Sarah researched the house’s history. Eleanor had indeed lived there. Her son had died in a tragic accident, and she was consumed by grief. Some say she never truly left.
Sarah moved in with Daniel for a while, but even in his apartment, she felt uneasy. Shadows flickered at the edges of her vision. Objects weren’t where she left them. And at night, she sometimes heard faint whispers.
"Danny, what if it followed me?" she asked one night.
He frowned. "There’s no way… right?"
Then, they both heard it. A faint knock. First on the wall, then the ceiling.
Sarah’s blood ran cold. "It’s here."
A Haunting That Never Ends
Determined to break the curse, Sarah sought out a paranormal expert, an older woman named Margaret who had spent years investigating hauntings.
"The spirit has attached itself to you," Margaret explained. "It does not wish to harm you, but it is bound to its suffering." "How do I stop it?" Sarah asked desperately. Margaret sighed. "You must help Eleanor find peace."
With Margaret’s guidance, Sarah returned to the Holloway house one last time. She carried the diary and the rusted locket, standing in the center of the living room.
"Eleanor, I know your pain," Sarah said. "Your son... he’s not lost. You don’t have to stay here." The air grew cold, but there was no anger this time—only sadness.
"Go to him," Sarah whispered, holding out the locket.
A shadow moved across the room, then faded into the darkness. A soft breeze rustled through the house.
And then, silence.
The Legend Lives On
Sarah never experienced the disturbances again. The house remained empty for years, and though locals still spoke in hushed tones about its haunted past, no one ever saw the poltergeist again.
But some nights, when the wind howled through the trees, they swore they could still hear faint whispers—echoes of a sorrow that once refused to be forgotten.
Would you dare step into the Holloway house?
