Visitor: Debut Albums and Magical Enchanted Dwelling
An unexpected Visitor

I was lying in bed staring out of the window into the star studded sky. I couldn’t sleep, again.............
Ever Since I had moved to Arkham things had changed. I felt like someone was constantly watching me, penetrating my thoughts and taking over my mind. I looked over at the clock, my nightime routine, it read 00:00, Mid-night. The house was silent of anything living, the only sound was the quickening of my breath, the atmosphere eerie and chilling. Mum would have been long asleep, I had heard her creaking up the old staircase sometime ago, and checking in on me, as she did every night, I pretended to be fast asleep as I didn’t want to worry her that I hadn’t been sleeping well.
She had enough on her plate, what with the divorce, (how I hate that word!) and then moving here. Her soft hand had brushed my cheek sending goosebumps down my arm, but that was over an hour ago, if only she knew how to save me from this endless darkness.... Now I was on my own. I crept slowly out of bed, moving lightly across the old floor boards so I wouldn’t wake mum, and moved towards the cold glass of the window. I opened the window like a skilful thief, only I was breaking out of my prison into the night to steal the treasures that it had in store for me.
The air was calm and inviting, the trees opposite my window were almost motionless as if playing a child’s game of musical statues. What amazed me the most was that why would anyone want to live here. The whole town was completely lifeless! It was boring and dreary, but yet at the same time made me feel uncomfortable and edgy like something wonderful was going to happen.
And then it did. It happened as quickly as the dawn of a new day. For a second even I didn’t believe what I had witnessed. My precious night had been disturbed again, and it infuriated me. From the top of the street, like a flash of lightening a white car came swiftly down the road and came to an abrupt halt outside my house! I

    I rose from sleep and went searching for anyone to spend time with, but they all seemed to be frozen, like statues in a museum. I tapped on the shoulder of Jake, but he didn't move or even blink, and I screamed in terror and tasted metallic blood on my tongue. What is happening? I thought to myself as I sprinted to my room and tried, unsuccessfully, to fall back asleep. Eventually, I could, and when I woke up, the world seemed like it was back to normal, with the sound of people's laughter and conversations filling the once empty space.…

    It was a windy, and chilly day in Newberry. The small old town that it was. The air frigid, and the trees bare as though a human is stripped down to its bare bones. The town was desolate except for supper time. The flags on the street would dance back and forth. Some stuck in the iced air. The light poles on the side of the streets would never light. Due to the shattered light bulbs that rarely glowed. For people would drive miles to go to Luke’s. It was basically the only thing open in Newberry. It was a rare diner that it was. It served coffee and donuts all day, and was open all the time. That was unique for Newberry. The town historic yet haloed. The smell of dust, linens, and must lingered in the streets. But the town was desolate, not…

    The thick tree lines and vast open fields bring a sense of freedom and grandeur. The brilliant light shining like beacon of hope with the soft calming breeze flowing across the field is refreshing and pure like a baby after a warm bath. The air seems to be free and clear of the city’s poisonous air pollution and the soft sounds of birds makes it all too refreshing, like a beautiful day on the beach. With quiet clean monuments and buildings dancing across the landscape, the look of peace and quiet seems to be present at last. As the blue crisp skies begin to darken across the brilliant blue pond, the shimmering light hitting the trees is as beautiful as the sun setting on the Catalina Island on a bright blue day with soft clouds flowing across the sky. I have the taste of fresh fruit on my tongue in my mouth as I take a long deep breath, and realize how much the soft green grass adds to the peacefulness in the park. I can hear the cheerful wildlife scampering beyond the tree line, like young children frolicking in their mother’s front yard. As the quiet darkness sets in, and with the city brilliant lights in the background, the serene park makes the bustling city seem peaceful once…

    It seemed like I was wandering into a different dimension. My senses were becoming acquainted to new feelings: guttural whispers, excruciating odour, ponderous glass-like air and the cemented, pungent, taste of death! As I opened the door candlelight rose to greet me but who lit them? I was informed that the secluded house I was purchasing has been unoccupied forever.…

    All houses and buildings looked dark and dreary, almost like theres no hope in advancing the town. In Edward Scissor hands the people and their houses had bright, exciting colors. Also, they had everything perfect, even the grass was brighter green than an apple. This town was, a bit concerning as to how perfect everything seemed to be, a little over exaggerated in…

    I entered into the new house, it was so empty. I could feel the weight in the air. The cold, frightening new air. I walked over to what is now my parents room, I rolled the sleeping bag onto the carpet, and slept on the floor. Something felt strange, I was sleeping on carpet. Never before had I fallen asleep on carpet. Always on hardwood floor. I recall falling asleep in sorrow, trying to grasp a little bit of hope out of myself. I tried to see the best in the situation, but all I could think about was the people I just left, all I could think about was the past. I couldn’t bring myself to the present. My mind and heart still in Ecuador, my cold body here. This was probably one of the worst moments of my life. I don’t think I have ever cried so much. I don’t think that I’ve ever felt so isolated. I didn’t know who I was. Everything that made me had the reset button pushed on it. All of my pride and courage felt lost. I felt so weak. I needed to become someone new.…

    The Twilight Zone

    The last thing I remember is falling asleep during a late night rerun of the Twilight Zone. So when it happened, it was especially eerie, like I had stepped into a lost episode, but Rod Serling was nowhere in sight; for moment, neither was anybody else. At 4:31 AM a merciless shove pushed me off my bed. I crawled on the floor, trying to escape the cruel, uncontrollable shaking, but it followed me. It followed me down the stairs and underneath the dining room table where my family joined me. Little did I realize that before the morning sun rose again, I would see everything differently.…

    I have been awake before dawn at 0645 am all thanks to the scream therapy in the shower, I am washed by the cool air, air which seems that no one is breathing yet. I know where I am suddenly, I am part of this quiet and beautiful town and I am happy. Suddenly, the pure melancholy, first blue of morning begins. The air where one can bathe in. the electric shriek of a train, heels on sidewalks. The first birds. I am part of this town now.…

    This was where she had grown up. She used to play in the streets and she knew everybody. She even knew the sounds of the people walking down the street, like the familiar footsteps clacking on the pavement of the man in the last house on his way home. She knew the familiar smells of the area. She was fond of the smell of her house. Eveline often mentioned the familiar odor of dusty creatone. Everything in the house was familiar and she had wondered at times if she would ever see them again. She had never dreamed of being divided from them. She was unsure if she could leave and not come back. She would never be able to see these things again. This was something Eveline could never…

    I was woken up by the bright morning sun reflecting off of a window from a building nearby. Thankfully I woke up because some people in big jumpsuits came by with a tremendous truck that started moving the dumpster I was hiding behind. As they approached me, I ran as fast as I could out of the alleyway and darted out onto the sidewalk. So many people were looking at me, I didn’t know what to do. That’s when I saw an old friend.…

    I immediately felt responsible for what had happened. The world around me turned into a type of Hell. Nothing seemed to be bright and colorful anymore; the flowers next to my bed had turned a shade of grey, the bright green rug on my floor looked almost brown, and the light from my lamp didn’t illuminate my room the way it did the day before. Looking around I felt the walls of my bedroom start to cave in, and I knew I needed to get away.…
