The Cannibal Creature
THE CANNIBAL CREATURE
I always had a strange and mysterious feeling about this house, as if it was haunted or the abode of ghosts, and weird creatures, it always gave me the shrieks and the shrills, which made the hairs on my back shoot up.
It was a mid winter cold night, my parents were out, I was humming softly while doing my English homework, a few minutes later, I heard the creak of a door, I ignored it thinking it was just the wind. Suddenly the windows and lights started shaking and I heard a strange whisper coming from the bathroom alley, my heart missed a beat I was horrified. The whisper turned into horrendous sounds of pain at the same moment there was a cacophony of different sounds; crashing, hissing, roaring, squealing, and rumbling. I got the courage and stood up. I opened the door but it was pitch dark, so I could not see anything as I moved out into the corridor I felt the full force of the wind slam like a physical object. I could actually feel the floor moving beneath my feet and the walls seemed to sway and shudder, I dropped to my knees and crawled along the sodden carpet, there was a startling flash and another blast of thunder, followed by a gust of wind so powerful it blew the windows in, the rain followed hosing down the corridor in a horizontal bar. The walls were instantly soaked and a picture flew off the wall. I was bewildered, everything appeared like it was happening in slow motion afore my eyes, the lights went out, pots and pans fell and smashed, what was going on? It was worse than an earthquake. The wind was whipping around in the corridor and the house was vibrating as if at any moment it might crack up and blow away, I was terrified, my heart was pumping. In my head I was shouting, screaming and crying for help, I pray for oblivion but nobody answers me. in the real world I was in a dream, a fantasy, the world seeming to spin above me, As I started going back, I caught something from the corner of my eye. I gasped and gripped

    Bad houses hate our warmth and our human-ness. That blind hate of our humanity is what we mean when we use the word ‘haunted’.” I believe that those who reside in a home make the personality of the home clear. Both the Winchester Mystery House and Rose Red reflect on the widowed owners and their odd tactics of building a thriving home to live…

    Snow started to shower as if on a peaceful rainy night and I look for any opening, trying to escape this creature that was following me. I could make out a large building figure ahead and ran directly to it, exhorting my energy as I advanced through the shivers in my body and aching bloodstained legs. An old tainted church-like mansion appeared as the fog cleared and I forced my way up the frigid sleet hill and onto a rusty pavement beside the building. I leaned upon the 5-metre tall wooden door trying to hear any sound coming from inside the outsized building, trying to sense any civilisation as the sky slowly turned into a rich black shade. I knocked onto the polished door, trying to depict a reaction from the owner that might've lived in this secluded place. Lights started to rapidly appear above the door and forming a luminous loop around the entire mansion, whilst the door blew open with such force that I was knocked back onto my spine. I tried to scamper away on my knees as a spine-chilling sensation started to form from what was a supernatural…

    The author, Basil Johnston, is trying to portray the connection between a mythical story from the Aboriginals and the way we are destroying the environment today, from his article Modern Cannibals of the Wilds, written in 1991. Johnston begins his article by telling a story about a habitat filled with many different species such as: fish, birds, insects and other wildlife. Then, Johnston continues to introduce a cannibalistic mythical creature called weendigoes, who feed on human flesh to try to satisfy his never-ending hunger. After Johnston introduces the mythical weendigoes, he transitions into introducing the modern weendigoes who care reincarnated as humans, depicted as industries, corporations and multinationals who dwells on wealth and profits from forestry. As the story continues, the use of woodsmen with axes to harvest trees converts to clear-cutting tractors, as the corporations’ greed increases. Industrial destruction of the ecosystems from greed, selfishness, and ignorance of the human nature will have negative impacts on the environment, wildlife and the climate change.…

    Out of nowhere the building shook and continued to shake. What’s happening I keep asking myself and then scream start to fill and congest my mind, the view from the window covered with thick dark smoke. All of sudden I can almost smell death. I rush out the room to see what the cause of this is and what’s going on and my head become more and more bloated with screams and the emotion of fear. I gaze outside the window and I just stand there and think. How do I get myself out of this? I kept asking myself this and wondered and wondered.

    I let my feet feel the carpeted stairs inch by inch. A found missing flyer was framed on the wall as I paced up and down the hallway my head was out of my mind or was it my mind was out of my head? Screaming. Screaming. Screaming. It never stopped! Where was it! I banged on the wall over, and over, and over, and over again. I ran to the closet door and opened it. There it was; the screaming. There she was; the girl. I couldn't see her, but I could feel the chill. A victim. I closed the door. My eyes crossed and rolled back. A shot of adrenaline shoots up me. The screams poor out of my mouth. I can't control it. I try to close my mouth, but I can't. I start walking down the stairs at a fast pace. Foaming at the mouth I try to get myself together but I can't. Why. Before I know it I'm picking up my gun and walking at an even faster pace out the door, but how. Something's pulling me, but nothing's there. I'm walking faster, and faster, and faster. Past the river, past the boat, into the water, to the shore, through more woods. Walking, and walking, and walking, and walking. I stop. My upper body seems to collapse, but my legs keep me stable. I look around as if I'm checking to make sure no ones there. I take the gun to my head I start to weep and call for help... But I'm already…

    Of Cannibals Analysis

    Of Cannibals is an essay, one of those in the collection Essays of Michelle de Montaigne that was written at the end of a decisive period in the history of humanity, the Renaissance. This period corresponds to the rise of the bourgeoisie, the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. This growth is directly perceptible by several aspects, first and foremost the development of large cities in Europe and France, a result of the eruption of a social class around the trade. Montaigne was born in 1533 into a noble Catholic family. We are in the total period of Renaissance and Francis I reign over France (since 1515). The Lutheran Reformation (Protestantism) is on and François I sees a threat to its authority: the first persecutions were recorded in 1520.…
