Estate for sale
It's a beautiful street with beautiful homes built back in the 1800's a time when superstitions were real and humans were much more innocent than they are now.
At the end of the street is an empty lot where a house once stood, and a beautiful white oak tree that's so big now a man could make a door through it.
However every one avoids that lot.
The local story is that the tree will take your soul! It was there back when they developed the street and the Natives told the workers not to disturb that tree, the workers brushed them off and continued to work.
Men started disappearing when the tree was to be cut down.
The developer decided to leave the tree and build the house there anyway.
A family moved in with two small children
Alec and Alexi, a boy and girl.
The children seemed drawn to the tree, Alec was always climbing in it's branches, and Alexi was always seen playing with her dolls at the foot of the tree. It was almost as if the tree "loved" the children! When the parents called them in for dinner, the tree would leak a water like sap from its branches and leaves.
As if it were saying "no don't go!".
The neighbors thought the children were strange and started making fun of them through their fence. Then they started throwing rocks. Children can be so cruel and not realize the damage they do until it's too late.
A rock hit Alexi in just the right spot and killed her instantly. Alec screamed and their parents came and rushed Alexi to the hospital but it was too late. When Alexi was hit she was so close to the tree that she bled all over it, everyone paid little attention to that they also didn't notice the little face in the bark of the tree.
After the funeral service, everyone was visiting the house to pay respects, some noticed Alec playing and talking to the oak tree out front.
His mother brushed it off as boys do boy things like climbing trees.
But Alec new that his sister was in the tree somehow! He tried to tell his parents once and they thought he was having a mental breakdown so he thought it best to say nothing after that.
One day the neighbor children came and were teasing Alec about talking and playing around the tree, all of a sudden they all were pelted with acorns! Ouch!
Alec grew into a fine attorney and took great care of his parents and their estate. AND...
The neighborhood kids, ALWAYS, avoid that tree.
