Tempting Fate-Chapter 96

96 Chapter 96: The Haunted House Challenge (Part Three) – The Killing

The friends looked at each other as they moved around the room. They were scared, but they didn’t say that to their viewers. But because of what happened, even the viewers knew what they were facing. Their viewer’s comments can also be read as saying that their friend Paolo went inside the glass. Viewers say that they should go out of the house and shouldn’t keep going on the challenge. Others continue to encourage them, saying that the strong will survive.

Meanwhile, Devin smiled as he watched the youngsters from outside the house. He put his foot on the table and stayed calm while sitting in the chair.

He laughed when he saw Jasmin’s comment about letting them out of the haunted house.

“Haist, why are these people downers? The fun part is just getting started-they’re being bossy,” Devin said.

When Devin challenged the vloggers, Emy and Reed’s sudden departure no longer bothered him. But he was obsessed with playing with the group of vloggers, even though he knew they could get hurt or killed if they went into that haunted house. ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂

He doesn’t know the history of the house, but he feels powerful energy inside and wants to eat it. Full of rage, disgust, longing, and the desire to kill. Everything that a demon like him would need is inside the house. It was like he was waiting for a delicious meal to be fully cooked and served to him so he could devour it. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the sweet smell from the inside.

Meanwhile, Vincent tightened the rope of friendship that connected them all. They need to find Paulo.

“According to the comment, Paolo went inside the mirror...” Cory said.

“Jeez, how could that happen?” Vincent said.

.....

“Because they’d seen it. “We caught it on camera,” Cory said.

“And do you believe that?” Vincent said.

“Why not? This house has the potential for anything to happen,” Cory said.

“Cory, are you a wimp?” Vincent asked.

“Hey you guys, please stop. Let’s just find Paolo.” Liam said.

During the conversation that happened, viewers commented on their live broadcast. They started circling inside the room when they noticed the flickering of their torches. Vincent looked over at Liam.

“What is happening?” Vincent asked.

“I’m not sure,” Liam said as he looked at it and lightly patted it.

“Silly, if that breaks, we’ll be in even more trouble,” said Vincent.

“Guys help...”

They all turned around and saw Paolo lying on the floor, bleeding. Half of his body was outside the glass, and the other half was still inside. His eyes were gone and his face was filled with blood. Cory was shocked at what she saw. What Liam and Vincent saw left them speechless. Vincent took one step toward Paolo, but then he went inside the glass as if he were pulled from the inside.

“Paolo!” Vincent yelled. “Damn!”

Vincent quickly moved toward the mirror, but before he could get close enough, Paolo’s body suddenly vanished. Vincent quickly went up to Paolo, and he pulled his body away from the mirror. But they didn’t expect to see what Paolo looked like after Vincent laid him out. It was as if someone had pulled out his eyes and put them in his mouth. Cory screamed again, and she went to sit with Liam and Vincent, who was still sitting on the floor. Vincent quickly got up, and he and the others ran toward the door.

Devin could not stop laughing while watching the three vloggers. You can see what happened during their live broadcast, even Paolo’s death. More viewers reacted and commented on the video. Some have already mentioned the police in the video. It scared many, like the vloggers, because of the live broadcast, as if all the viewers were with them. Experiencing the same fear at that moment. 𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯n𝗼𝘷𝚎𝚕.𝒄૦𝓶

“Jeez, I never thought I’d have so much fun tonight...” Devin said.

In the meantime, Avery watches the news while eating her favorite junk food. Jasmine was looking at her phone.

“Shit!” “Oh my god!”

Avery and Jasmin looked at each other and exclaimed at the same time. One vlogger in the haunted house, Paolo, could be seen in the video from the news flash.

“Paulo died...” Jasmin said with fear on her face. Because she watched live, she felt like she was in the house with the vloggers. She wiped her eyes.

“The police are heading there,” Avery said as she watched TV. “What were those people thinking, and they went to that house, anyway?”

Jasmin immediately called Devin.

Devin was still sitting and looking at his phone when suddenly Jasmin’s name popped up on the screen. He immediately answered.

“Jasmin...”

“Sir...” Jasmin’s voice could be heard on the other line, and it was filled with fear. “The police are heading to the haunted house. Are you still there?”

“Really? I didn’t expect this to be more exciting than earlier. Did you witness one of them die?”

“Sir... when the police investigate, I might get involved, Sir.”

“Why do you get involved?”

“Didn’t you give 50k to Cory? And I commented that....”

“There’s nothing wrong with the challenge I gave, and they accepted it. Also, they have the problem, not us. You have nothing to be worried about.”

“Sir Devin...” Jasmin said when she realized she was crying.

Devin chuckled. “You know, Jasmin, that the shaman you have in your house today is strong.” Jasmin looked at Avery. “The three vloggers can be saved if she fights against the strong evil spirit in the house.”

“Sir, the police are on their way...” Jasmin said.

“Haist, you know that the police can’t do anything. They will just die, like what happened to Paolo. You can talk to Avery, and I’ll be ready to pick you up there.”

Jasmin didn’t answer, so Devin ended the call and kept watching.

—

Vincent tried opening the door earlier, but it was locked. They looked at each other when they heard a strange sound that sounded like bones breaking. It was a loud, repeated crunching sound. Later, Cory saw a hand coming out of the mirror. Its fingers were bent as if her bones had been broken. Next, the leg and foot are turned to the opposite side. Also, like the other leg and foot. It has long hair and old-fashioned clothes. She immediately turned away in fear. Instead, he pointed the camera at the woman, but the viewers couldn’t see anything but could hear the sounds she was making.

The three friends turned around again and screamed because the woman with blood, messy hair, and broken fingers, legs, and feet on different sides was walking toward them. Even his head was resting on her shoulder as her neck was also broken. With every movement, they can hear bones breaking.

“Shit!” Vincent cursed in a panic. “Just the three of us...”

The three of them stood on their feet and kicked the door at the same time until it broke. They fled the room.

The three of them were still unsure of where they were going because they were going in different directions, but Vincent held the hands of the two.

“No one will be split up,” Vincent said.

They jotted down the stairs and were about to go to the main door when energy pushed them away from the door. They fell on the floor near the stairs.

“What’s it?” Liam asked. “It’s like they don’t want to let us go...”

“Let’s find another way...” Vincent said. They looked at the kitchen and ran right over there.

In the meantime, Devin let out another puff of black smoke and blew it into the air toward the kitchen. When the friends got to the kitchen door, they jumped back. Devin smiled.

“Jeez, it’s only 11 p.m., and you’re not in the main event...” Devin said.

He watched where the friends were going next. When they came out of the kitchen, it surprised all three of them to see the woman with broken bones. It’s even scarier up close because its eyes are gone. It had only a big hole for a mouth and no tongue. The three screamed, but he put up his hand and grabbed Cory. The girl was crying and stumbling. Vincent kicked the woman, but she didn’t let go of Cory’s arm. Cory’s eyes got bigger, and he screamed louder when his fingers dug into his arm. When Vincent kicked the woman and Liam tried to take Cory’s hand away, Cory could feel her flesh being ripped. When Vincent kicked him, he tried to pull his fingers out of Cory’s arm. He takes them off one by one. But he didn’t expect her to raise her hand and swat it away from his face, hitting his eye. Liam took a kilo of salt from the bag he was carrying. He threw some salt at the woman, and she let go of Cory. Cory hid behind Liam while he continued to sprinkle salt on the girl. It’s impeding what he’s doing. While Liam was busy, Vincent took his handkerchief and immediately tied it around Cory’s arm. Her entire body was shaking with fear. Cory saw blood dripping from Vincent’s face onto the handkerchief he was tying. Cory looked up at Vincent. He has a wound on his ear that cut off half of his earlobe. The wound still stretches Vincent’s cheek and stops near the edge of his mouth.

“V-Vincent....” Cory said.

Vincent glanced at Cory. “I’m fine. Let’s get out of here and find another way.”

Vincent grabbed Cory’s and Liam’s hands again, and he pulled them to run. But the woman ran after them, and all they could do was throw them back until they fell in front of her. The woman quickly touched Vincent’s eyes with her fingers. All three screamed. Liam took a bottle of holy water and sprinkled it on the woman. The woman then disappeared. Vincent was still shouting. His eye hurts, and he feels the pain all over his body. Cory was crying while Liam was trying to get Vincent into a room. When they got into the room, they sat there. Liam gave Cory the bottle of holy water and a packet of salt. Liam wore the camera he brought with him and the phone they used for the live broadcast. He took out his handkerchief and wiped the blood from Vincent’s eyes.

“I can’t see a thing...” Vincent said.

Liam stopped wiping the blood off of Vincent’s face. He and Cory stared at each other.

Meanwhile, Devin takes Jasmin and Avery inside the haunted house after Avery agreed to help save the three vloggers. They got ahead of the police because Devin could teleport.

“Make me proud, you guys,” Devin said with a smile.

Avery raised one eyebrow. “Damn you, Sir Devin.”

Devin’s laughter could be heard throughout the house.
