"Health comes first, later work" he said,

Then he went to the kitchen to check if there was anything he could prepare or anything already readymade to eat, unlucky fella

The Fridge was empty as expected as he had just shifted and didnt even went for little shopping for groceries and other supplies, so he decided to go to buy some

then he got onto his car , started it and drove off

The Nearest grocery store and other stores were very far away from his house and due to his laziness he didnt feel like to go but had no choice either buy now or stare later was his situation,

then reached the store and shopped for needed items and went on to the cashier counter to payout

the Cashier was an old man, old but he looked insanely energetic

the Cashier asked with a smile on his face, "Quite New here are we?", while scanning the items

then hans replied "Y-yeah"

then the old man continued with his usual chit chat "where do you live young man"

Hans didnt want to answer but as he but he anyways answered as it was a new place and knowing someone or having connections would be great help if he needed something later incase

"Oh, I live quite far from here near the woods, Street 12"

The old man froze as he heard the words "Woods" and "Street 12"

He shakingly dropped the scanner and asked "Are u staying at the wooden cabin?" 

"Y-yeah? is there any problem pops?"

The Old Man soon rushed out of his counter and made his sit and said , the old man was clearly stuttering with his words as if he was scared

"Listen Child, If you want to live , Get out of the place immediately."

Hans got up and asked "Why?"

The Old Man continued "The house is haunted by a malevolent Poltergiest"

Hans had a silly reaction like of Seriously??

he stood up and said "Listen old man, ghosts dont exist and keep your old tales away from me"

he was now frustrated and a slammed the money on the counter and left

as he was leaving he could hear the old man yelling "What ever you do, do not break the salt cricle"

as he was driving back to his home the old mans words hit him back like a shotgun shell, what if it was true? well thats thoughts were shut down quickly with his one thing he always said to himself "Ghosts arent real, they are just a fragment of one's imagination "

Hans wasnt a one who believed that either god exists or even spirits, he had some faith in god but none if matter of spirits or ghosts

He reached his house and sent the mail and it was approved and first Part of the payment was given, he was immensily happy that they liked his work

That Night, He was lying on his bed thinking what did the oldman mean by "Salt Circle?"

he was just thinking about it when he heard glass shatter from outside of his room,

He took up his torch beside him and went out of his room yelling "Who is there"

then he saw that a random rat was running here and there and he chased it off outside and when he got back he saw a strange door that he seemingly didnt notice before

he opened it and it was a basement and when he went down what he saw was terrifying, a ritualistic circle made blood and a skeleton in between the circle and here and there old burned out candle and surrounding the whole ritual circle was a Circle Made Of Salt
