Madison Square Goredon

By Ronald Johnson

During the late 1900s, there was a family better known as the Madison family, just married.  The Madison family was well established, with three kids.  After being married, life was heading down a great road.  The family decided to move to an isolated area.  Little did they know the house they purchased was filled with spirits.  Journey with me on this Friday the 13th through Madison Square Goredon, better known as Spirit World.

After three years passed, everything seemed cool.  I mean, there were all sorts of noises at night, but we never bothered because we knew the house was old.  We heard sounds as if someone were walking up the stairs, or it seemed as if someone were playing with the dishes in the kitchen.  Sometimes the house was just too quiet. 

One Friday changed everything forever.  It was 11:11 p.m. when there was an unexpected knock at the door.  No one ever visited the Madison place.  Why would they?  It was in the middle of nowhere.  The father opened the door, but there was nothing in sight.  Soon, as he turned around to head back to the couch, there was a second knock--this time, he found something disturbing.  On the door, he found a note which read "GET OUT."

He thought someone was playing a joke, so he didn't bother.  As he sat back on the couch, flicking through the TV minutes later, the lights started to dim in and out.  The family gathered in the front room freaking out when there was a third knock.  They approached the door slowly.  The door swung open.  The lights were still flickering on and off.  Every time the light blinked on, they saw a different person.  There were a total of five, all with black eyes covered in blood.  They tried to escape from the house, but the doors and windows were forced locked.  They thought of every way possible to escape, but they all seemed to fail.

Nevertheless, each of them started to end up missing, one by one, til they were all gone.  But there was one who survived--the oldest child.  Even though he didn't die that night, he wishes he had.  Just knowing what happened there that night eats him alive.  Now that years have passed, he shares his story with tourists who visit.  No one ever moved into Madison Square Goredon again.  After every tour, he looks in the top window and there he sees his family covered in blood, looking down on him as if they are waiting for him to join them one day.  

No one would ever forget the story behind Spirit World.  There were a few college students, twenty years after the Madisons died, who wanted to see for themselves.  They entered the house and the doors slammed closed.
