Richard entered the House , the dank musty hall filled with dust . He looked at the walls and noticed the scratch marks on the crumbling plaster . they looked fresh , yet no one had been in the house since the Film crew from most Haunted entered last year . When the police found them wandering the streets babbling like lunatics , their bodies covered in scratches , their hair pure white the house was cordened off . But a child had gone missing , dared by her freinds to enter the house . The police wouldnt enter , the aura of the place far to strong for their mundane senses to cope with . The house had a presence ,something old and malevolent . Richard could feel it watching him , he could sense it moving , probing , looking for a way in . Richard closed his mind to it, the barriers shutting out its baleful influence . The girl was close . He could sense her , alive but catatonic . The dust swirled arind his feet as something came at him . It was invisible to the normal eye but Richard could see its dark Aura . He cought it , the slim silver chain wrapped around his hand Burning its incorperal form . Within seconds the purity of the silver had destroyed its hold on this world and it fell screaming back to the dark place from wence it came . " That was too easy" Richard muttered . Then it came at him and he was thrown through the now open doors onto the front path as a booming voice echoed " GET OUT "

The dark History of Hobbs Cross begain many years ago , before the house was built . Back in the 18th century the land belonged to sir Robert Downing , a man renowned throughout the local area for been a drunkerd and a womaniser . What wasnt known was his alligence to the darker powers , to the princes of the infernal realms . This side of him was never found out , a evil secret he took to his grave . But the land where the House would be built was used by this evil man and his sick and twisted coven to sacrifice and summon creatures not of this World . It was upon one night in late march 1785 that Sir Robert died . he and his damned companions brought something into this owrld , something evil, something twisted and something that killed them all . But their souls were not enough to sustain it and it slept , slept for a hundred years until in 1885 the baron of Habisfeild aquired the land and butil upon it a house of such beauty , it brought envy from his peers . The Baron and his young wife Susan moved in as soon as the house was built , ignoring the warnings of locals and the complains of the builders that during its contruction bad things happened . Indeed two builders lost their lives due to a collapsiong ceiling . But the Baron was a man of sceince and ignored them . That night he came very much to regret this as his wife was taken by the entity that was now fully awake . No one knows truly what happened to susan for when the baron was found , naked and covered in scratches and bruises all he kept saying was " the eyes , those damned eyes " over and over again . He finished his life in an asylum some years later . Died in his sleep was the official report , although it was said at the time by the Doctor in charge that a look of absolute terror marked his face

Richard got up and dusted himself off . The doors were still open but the hallway was in complete darkness . Then richard saw them . Two glowing eyes , cat like but appearing to be made from the fires of hell itself . Dark evil radiated from them . Richard could feel the malice and hate eminating from the house . He stared back . " know now that your time on this earth is over " he shouted before sprinting back into the dark hall

In 1890 the house came into the possession of Reginald Lyns , a rich barrister from London . Always looking to outdo his fellows he had purchased the house becouse of its size and location in the Small Villiage of Hobbs cross , away from the hussle and pollution of London . But Misfortune came to him also . It was only a month after he had moved in that stange things began to happen . His cook slipped and cut her hand open upon a knife she swore was on the rack. So bad was the wound that her hand went septic and had to be amputated . then a week later the gardener was found dead , apparently having hung himself in the green house . Most curousely he had written in the dirt " get out" But then in the winter of 1891 , thirty eight people entered the house to attend Reginalds birthday ball . None including Reginald were ever seen again . All the police found were scratch marks on the walls and spots of blood . the house also smelt fainlty of ozone and sulpher . For the next thirtry years it lay undisturbed until in 1921 Barbera Smyth-Jones , a wealthy widow purchased the place for her son and his new wife . A decision she would come to regret

Richard felt the entity assault him , its darkness pouring over him , trying to engulf him . He put up his psychic barriers but so strong was its attack they begain to crack. Summoning more power he reinforced them and the entity was pushed back . The house shock with its anger and the walls begain to crack . Blood began to dribbled down them , slwoly at first but then faster and faster . Finally the plaster gave way and a torrent of blood sprayed fourth knocking Richard to the floor . " GET OUT " came the voice " GET OUT "

Jonathan Smyth-jones and his new bride Susan had only been in the house two days before its otherworldy occupier made its presence known . As they sat down to dinner on the evening of march 22nd 1921 the walls begain to crack . Jonathan looked at his wife who wore a look of absolute fear on her face and was pointing behind him. A red mist was seeping from the cracked walls and taking form . As Jonothan turned , it embraced him . A week later the police entered the house to find Jonathans body on the floor , his face and torso covered in scratches. His face was set with a look of such wide eyed fear that once of the constables fled there and then . he was dead but of his wife no trace was ever found . the house stayed empty until 1940. By that time London had grown to engulf the village of Hobbs cross and the house was struck by a bomb during the blitz . Witnesses would report that as the house burned a hateful scream could be heard and a ball of fire shot up into the sky , striking the german Bomber that had caused the inferno .until the wars end the remains of the house were avoided . People felt cold and scared whenever they passed and apart from a young woman called Susan Taylor and her american GI boyfreind who entered the remains looking for somewhere to be alone , no one entered it and Susan was never seen again . Her Boyfreind shipped out the next day before police could qusetion him . Of that night he never spoke and was killed in france . those in his unit sat he just got up and walked out infront of a german tank ignoring the hail of bullets coming his way . He was killed when the tank run him down and as he deid he let out the most wailful cry ever heard . So ill sounding was it that the german soldiers turned and fled as did his own unit . when they returned the next day his body was shrivelled and decomposed and the Tank was rusty and falling apart , scratch marks covering its oxidised bodywork .

Richard Got up again and begain to chant . a blue glow filled the air around him and the blood stopped flowing . The Eyrew retreated as the blue light banished the darkness. As the blackness moved back a young woman lay curled on the floor , dressed in 19th century clothing . She looked up at Richard , her face contorted by pain . " help me " she stammered , then suddenly tunred to look at the eyes and screamed , drawn back intot he retreating darkness . Richard Flung the silver chain into the dark . " Elotia etla Liminura" he shouted and the chain exploded into a golden light . The darkness shrivelled and the hosue rocked . A scream of hate and loathing filled the hall as the darkness was banished and the young woman fell to the floor . Richard took her hand and helped her to her feet . " you are free Susan Habisfeild" Richard said and the young lady , tears in her eyes faded . Richard walked up to the doors leading off from the hall and kicked them open . Beyond was nothing back darkness . he could feel the cold on hios skin and see his breath in the air . " Im coming for them all " he shouted " and then im going to send you back to Hell "

in 1947 the land was sold to a rich American by the name of Simon Goldberg who had the old ruins demolished . like all things connected tot he site , that didnt go without problems and the several of the workers commited suicide , hanging themselves from the trees on the ege of the grounds . But finally a new house was built and Mr Goldberg sold it to a wealthy freind . The night of the sale mr Goldberg went back to his mayfair home and according to the witness accounts of his house keeper and maid asked the lord to forgive him, put a gun into his mouth and blew his own brains out. The new owner of the house at Hobbs Cross , Mr Liam O donnel and his wife Susan moved in within the week . Their tenancy lasted less than two months . Susan was taken ill on the second night with fever . Prone to bouts of sleep walking when she was in good health , Liam now found his wife almost constantly getting up in the night and caught her several times trying to trow herself down the stairs . on the eight night she awoke , screamed and fell limp. For the next month she was bedridden ,Suffering from dreadful nightmares . then as may turned to june Liam was found impaled on the railings by the front gate of the house . His eyes were wide open and his arm outstretched towards the front door . Of Susan their was no trace , except spots of blood in her bed

Richard stepped into the darkness , another silver chain in hand . the saphire at the end of the chain burst into blue flame and the darkness retreated . the room was filled with the rewmains of the dead , several of which twitched and rose . Richard shouted " saphirian eluita " and a blade of blue flame appeared in his other hand . " these wont stop me from finding you" he shouted at the retreating darkness . the eyes started at him and their sheer hatred almost knocked him down. but he recovered just in time to behead the fiorst zombie , its body burning up from the touch of the magical flame . The second zombie fared no better and within minutes all the corpses had been destroyed . Richard nelt down and began to wave the saphire over the floor . " spirtu etu letoria2 he chanted againa and again and each time he said it , a blue glow lifted from the floor and faded . As the last soul was given its freedom Richard stood up . " they are free beast " he shouted " as shall be all the young woman you hold and then i shall destroy you"

in 1955 the house which had lain empty since that fatefull day was occuplied by two woman . Miss Elezabeth Marconi and Miss Susan Bradshaw . the two woman were notorouse in certain parts of london for being vicouse nasty gangland enforcers who loved to torture and main . they were on the run from the police after a botched bank job in which they killed seven people . As the moon rose in the sky Susan was taken with the idea that Elezabeth was going to betray her and beat her to death with the butt of her gun . Susan then fled the house , being the only susan to ever do so and handed herself into the police . Miss Marconis body was found by police , her skull caved in and her torso covered in scratches . before she was hung , she confessed all her sins to a preist and as she was led to her exacution she asked for a cross to wear . Her last worlds were " you wont get me you bastard" .

Richard sprayed water from a specially prepared bottle as he moved about the house . it was a potent mixture , blessed by a selection of people including a cardinal , a witch and a Rabbi amongst others . As he walked , Richard recited an acneitn spell of blessing . the house shock with anger as the entity felt its power weakening . The light from the saphire kept it from comiong lcose to ricahrd but it used all tis power to try and stop him . Furniture was thrown at him as well as shard of glass and dust . Richard bled from a score of wounds but still he kept chanting . When he was finished on the ground floor he headed upstairs . In the attic he found the souls of Sir Reginald and his Party Guests and freed them from their torment . With each soul freed the darkness in the house retreated .in the end all that was left was the celler . Richard walked slwoly down the stairs . As he reached the celler door he was beset by an entity . not the one that ruled this house but a lesser servant . it clawed at him , scratching his face and chest . Richard smashed it aside with the Saphire , the blue light burning through it . Then he concentrated his energy and the Celler door exploded . he peered down into the dark celler and threw the saphire into the pitch black . It exploded upon hitting the floor and bathed the room in blue light . And for the first time Ricahrd saw what he was facing

In 1963 as kennedy was killed in Dallas, the house in Hobbs Cross was sold to a family of four . Mr Douglas Tyme , his wife betty and their two Daughters mary and susan . Withn a week of moving in Betty was dead , apparently having slipped on the stairs and broken her neck in the resulting fall . After that Mary was never the same . She never spoke and just kept pointing at the celler door . She refused to sleep unless her dad and sister were with her and stayed out of the house as much as possible . in the febuary of 1964 she was found laying in her night dress in the snow on the street outside the house . her dad was found dead in the doorway , His face and body covered in thousands of scratches . her sister Susan was never found. After that the house was empty until the present . At 9pm September the 30th Susan Mitchel , a 12 year old from st margerets school was dared by her frinds to go into the house . She entered the grounds and wasnt seen since . At the same time Mary Tyme , 56 spoke . She sat up screaming . the doctor in charge of her care , knowing her history and the history of the house called Dr Ricahrd Darkspring , an expert in the paranormal and it was to Him she told her tale . of the evil within the house , how it had killed her family and how it had taken this little girl . She begged Dr Darkspring to stop it and so after making preperations at 9pm october 1st he entered the building

It was hidouse . The Corpereal form it had been forced to take by the magic Richard was using was a relection of its spirit form . It was serpent like , but unlike a reptile its skin was soft and rotten. Vast sores , boils and blsiters covered its form and a rank, noxouse puss dripped from open wouinds and spits . its head was a mouth , filled with decaying but sharp teeth and a long black tongue dripping with caustic slime hung from its jaws . It had several tenticles in which it gripped the souls of Susan Smyth Jones , Susan Taylor , Susan O donnel , Susan Tyme and the living body of Susan Mitchel . the four Souls were screaming in agony and fear , but susan mitchel was still catatonic . Richard held up a anceint symbol and began to chant The entity screamed and spat its slime at Richard , But he ingored it , chanting the liteny he had studied . As the words were spoken he could feel the entities grip on the house weaken . " etur et Mor, etur et Mar" chanted Richard and the beast screamed as the souls of the four susans stopped screaming . Richard magic has empowered them and they turned on their tormentor . Its grip weakenecit could not stop them linking hands and Richard used them to focus his magic . He took the bottle of water and threw it at the beast while still chanting . The Bottle came to a stop between the four Susans and acting as lenses , they channelled Richards magic intot he bottle . It glowed and exploded and sparkling water , filled with the light of their souls and the power of Richards magic bathed the beast . It screamed in pain and rage and hate and with a allmighty flash it vanished . Ruichard picked up susan Mitchel who was coming round . the other susans Smiled at him as they faded from view , passing on at last to the other side . Richard took the girl and carried her up to the front door . He rewached into his pocket and took something from it, holding it firmly in his hand . As he approached the front door a swirling mass of darkness apeared . " she is mine" it roared . Richard smiled . " your power is gone , you should have fled back to the pit when you could . " As the dark entity approached he plunged his hand into it and opened his palm . the gem he had taken from his pocket pulsed and the entity screamed as its essence was drawn into enternal imprisonment .

The night of the 1st of october saw the house at hobbs cross destroyed . A fire took hold and before the emergency services could gather , the entire house had burnt to ash . Susan Mitchel retuned home , completly unaware of what had happened . Mary Tyme died in her sleep with a look of happiness on her face and Dr Richard Darkspring returned home . he went into his own celler and stood before a huge Door made of black iron . Symbols so old no one alive could translate them were etched in silver accross its surface . Richard read them aloud and the door swung open . Inside was a burning vortex of energy and void , a gateway to a place feared and hated throughout the many worlds . the entity screamed in fear as richard threw it in and then the great door of the Vault slammed shut
