DBTBW: The House - May 10 2021

We bought a new house. It was my dad, mom, sister, and me. It had 3 bedrooms. I was the youngest. We started moving things in, but on that very day, my sister went missing. We saw her walk into the house, but she never walked out. We looked everywhere and couldn't find her.

The police were called. They looked at my parents suspiciously. I went looking around the house again, hoping I would find her. None of us thought she had run away, she had no reason to. She was a perfectly happy teen, spared from most of the drama teens experience. Her biggest problem was the occasional zit and those never lasted.

I walked around the house and felt it getting bigger. I knew how absurd that was, but I kept looking. In the hallway, I noticed that my sister's room had been blocked off. No, not by police tape. It was completely walled up. I knew it wasn't my parents. They had been with me all day and we had just gotten here and the last time we saw her, she was carrying things into her room. How was it completely walled off now? No one seemed to notice except me.

I started hearing noises coming from beyond the wall, like wailing. Suddenly, I was on the other side of the wall. It was dark and moist, there was like a fog, and where the room had been was a long hallway with a threshold on the far right. I walked down the hall up to the threshold and saw my sister's room. She was sitting, like in movies, on a chair facing the window across from the door. I heard her make a noise, but it didn't sound like her. A guttural sound between a growl and a scream began to form. I ran back the way I had come. I found myself on the other side of the wall again.

This time, there was about a 1-inch space between the floor and the wall. I could see a dim, bluish light, but I ran back into the kitchen where my parents were sitting with the police giving statements. When I had left, the police seemed to be looking at my dad more. By the time I came back, they were only minutes away from handcuffing my mom.

They did just that and took her. We all tried to calmly explain that she hadn't done anything, but the police weren't listening. I needed a private moment to tell my parents what I'd seen because the police would never believe it. They would sooner think we were all in on hurting my sister than believe that something seemingly supernatural was happening.

My dad left behind the police car to try to work something out, bail, etc. I stayed home alone, and while I tried to indicate what was going on, they didn't understand. It was almost midnight. I tried to keep myself busy, but I was too scared to go into any of the bedrooms, so I paced between the kitchen and the living room, trying not to look at the hallway that was peering at me from where my sister's bedroom door used to be. I kept my eyes firm on the floor beneath me, but the blue mist called me from the space between the wall and the floor.

I ran outside to see my father arriving. I quickly told him what was happening and he didn't seem to believe me. We walked into the kitchen. He had a blank look on his face, like he couldn't believe this was all happening and was trying to create an alternate reality in his mind. He wasn't listening to me. Just then, we heard a scream 10 times louder than what I had heard when I was alone. That snapped him out of his trance and I led him to the wall. We were a few feet away when I noticed the gap between wall and floor had grown and we could see two pale, gray, rotting feet beyond the wall.
