A Banshee is a queen of the Fairies. They are trapped underground for many years. They form bonds with families somehow. I'm not sure how. But this is my story...
I bought the house in the hills. It felt cold. I entered the house and it was thick with a kind of...haunting. There was this smell. A sweet smell that lingered in the house. It was nice. Like fresh fruit releasing its nectar. I sensed something there. It was there I just couldn't see it. I decided to get unpacked. I went up to the room up the stairs and as I turned the corner, I could have sworn I saw a whit woman with hair from her head to the floor, just shimmering in a white light But as soon as she saw me she disapperad I put it down to my imagination running wild. What a stupid mistake that was. I got unpacked but as I put my suitcase on the bed I found upstairs, I could have sworn something grabbed my shoulder. But i turned around and nothing was there. After dinner, I went to bed. Just as I was falling asleep something creecked. I got up and went down the hall. Then there she was. The white woman. She looked at me and said "prepare" Then moved her hair from her face and she had no eyes, nor nose nor teeth. she was hollow. She flew up and let loose with a powerful shriek. It shook the house with might. "Oh shit" I ran into my bedroom and layed under the bed. the shaking stopped. I went to the window. and froze. There she was again, only she was blackened by the night sky. she turned to me. and screamed again. then blackness fell upon my eyes. Then I woke up, in a white haze. I was standing unevenly. I saw some stairs in front of me. I walked up them and some Gold Gates welcomed me. I stepped into a white light emitted from the gates, and thats the last my family saw of me.
The End
