My House of Horrors

Chapter 3 Nightmare Tasks

“I'm sure you're still wondering if there are ghosts in the world. Come play a little game, the truth is right at the moment you open your eyes. ”

Nightmare-level task descriptions are very vague and do not know exactly what to do, just give people a weird feeling.

“Looking at the mission description, should be to play a game, but just play one game can be classified as a nightmare level?” In order to accomplish a difficult task in general, he barely fixed all the figures within the time limit without resting for hours in a row.

Turn the phone around and the more I look at Chen Song, the more I'm curious: “Why don't you try it? ”

And when it came up, it was like a vine spreading uncontrollably in his mind.

“Nightmare-level tasks have the highest rewards, and the three tasks that have been refreshed today, simple and general, I have no confidence in completing, so I'd rather bet. ”

Unable to sustain the low season, the terror house is about to be transferred to collapse. Chen Song is well aware of his current situation. He sees the hope of change easily, and he is naturally unwilling to let go of any opportunity.

“It was decided, sooner or later, to see the nightmare level mission. ”

Sitting out of bed, Chen Song points to the last task.

“Are you sure you want to take the nightmare difficulty routine? Acceptance may trigger an unknown situation. ”

“OK.”

The phone screen flashed and the real mission information emerged.

“To see another world requires courage, extraordinary luck, and a little help. The following game is called" You in the Mirror ": At 2: 04 a.m., you enter the bathroom alone, lock the bathroom door, turn off the lights, face the mirror, and light a candle between the mirror and you. Then close your eyes, concentrate, and slowly mumble your name. ”

“Anything can happen in the dark, maybe there will be a stranger's face in the mirror, maybe there will be a pair of scarlet eyes peeking in the corner, or the walls and doors will bleed out, all you have to do is stay still and stand quietly in front of the mirror. ”

“The mission will automatically succeed in half an hour, provided that no matter what happens during this period, you do not open your eyes. ”

After reading the mission introduction, Chen Gong had some hair in his heart: “Is there really another world that ordinary people can't see? ”

Not long before 2: 04 a.m., he hasn't rushed off and searched the internet for something related to the game.

After a while, Chen Song really found some. Some people were haunted by the bad luck of playing this game, some of them were confused, several times mentioned the disfigured face, and even worse, disappeared in their own homes, suspected of being dragged into the world of mirrors.

“Every single one of them is so detailed and realistic, just like a ghost story.” The more he looks at it, the more curious he is, the more he himself owns a haunted house. Every day he wonders how to scare people and how to bring a more intimidating experience to tourists within a safe range. After watching the introductions to the game, he felt a new door was opening.

“It's exciting to play a horror game in a haunted house late at night! ”

He checked the battery on his phone and felt it was necessary to record this historic moment.

“Later I'm going to be recording the whole thing, and if it's that horrible, maybe my haunted house could have a new project.” He turned over the case and looked for the candles and the lighter, waited until 2: 00 a.m. and came to the bathroom on the first floor of the haunted house with what was ready.

Chen Song also thought about coming to the bathroom on the first floor to play this game. In case something terrible really happened in the course of the game, he could jump out the window.

The ghost house in the middle of the night was silent, and a young man who could not want to save his life, with a flashlight and candles, locked himself in a narrow, forced bathroom without much hesitation.

“The enclosed pitch-black environment is the most intimidating place in the whole house. The bathroom is the heaviest place in the whole house. Mirrors, doors, pools, these props seem ordinary, they are actually the most psychological hints in everyday life. The man who designed the game was smart enough to grasp the deep weaknesses in the human heart and create the deepest terror in a simple environment.” Chen Song has a profound understanding of the difference between intimidation and terror, analyzing it and learning from it.

“True fear doesn't really require too many expensive props, just amplify the deep insecurity of the tourist and he will be defeated by himself.” Chen Gong took a deep breath and turned on the camera function of his phone, saying to the screen: “I don't know exactly what the consequences of this game will be. If I have an accident, please note that the person who picked up this phone must keep this video, it will be a key, a key to unlock the lie. ”

After that, Chen Gong fixed his phone to the side of the sink, and from this angle he was able to capture both Chen Gong and the mirror opposite him.

“It's 2: 01. Three minutes. ”

Waiting for death is more horrible than death itself. In the silent bathroom, any wind and grass blowing is amplified. As time approaches, Chan Song's heart beats faster and faster.

He looked at the time on the phone screen, turning off the flashlight and lit the candle, placing it between the mirror and himself, while pointing the pin to four.

The flame that sways becomes the only light source in the dark, standing between the mirror and reality, like a soul lamp that directs the way, trying to pull something out of the mirror.

Chen Gong looked at himself in the glasses and felt a little strange: “Has the game started? ”

He lowered his head slowly, closed his eyes and whispered his name.

“Chen Song, Chen Song, Chen Song...”

The constant celebration of one's name slowly gives one a sense of strangeness to the name, which is like writing a Chinese character over and over again, and in the end, even one can't recognize the word.

In order to avoid this situation, Chen Song counts three seconds every time he reads his name, and he does the same in calculating the time.

After all, the prerequisite for the success of the mission is that no matter what happens within half an hour, you cannot open your eyes.

“Around 2: 00 a.m., a man in a haunted house lit a candle, closed his eyes and stood in front of a mirror to play a game. If I hadn't been there myself, I wouldn't have believed that someone would have done something like this.” Chen Gomez was silently remembering his name, and he tried to stop himself from thinking.

“The game is full of psychological cues and the hardest part is not dealing with so-called ghosts and legends, but with restraint. As long as you don't open your eyes, there shouldn't be any danger. ”

It's easy to say, it's hard to do, and after spending the first 10 minutes, accidents happen.
