Binary Moon

The Binary Moon looked down upon the small town of Halewood, casting a pale light over the peaceful streets. In the midst of the houses and buildings stood an old, run-down mansion that seemed almost out of place with its decaying walls and overgrown gardens. It was said that the mansion had been abandoned for decades, haunted by the ghosts of its former owners.
One night, a group of teenagers decided to explore the abandoned mansion, seeking the thrilling excitement of being in a haunted house. They crept through the broken gates and made their way to the front door, their hearts racing with anticipation.
As they opened the door, the musty scent of the old mansion surrounded them. The floorboards creaked under their weight as they cautiously made their way through the grand hallway. They split up, each group taking a different direction, eager to uncover the secrets of the mansion.
The first group stumbled upon a room filled with old furniture covered in white sheets. As they approached a large mirror, the sheets began to rustle. Out of fear, they ran out of the room without looking back.
The second group found themselves in a dark, eerie basement. As they searched for any clues, they suddenly heard a faint whispering coming from the corner of the room. They quickly turned on their flashlights and saw a woman’s ghostly figure standing in the corner, her face contorted into a grotesque expression. Screaming, they ran out of the basement, vowing never to return.
Meanwhile, the third group had discovered a hidden room at the top of the mansion. In the room, they found a book lying open on a dusty desk. As they read through the pages, they uncovered the tragic story of the mansion’s past.
The mansion had once belonged to a wealthy family, the Williamsons. Mr. and Mrs. Williamson were well-known in the town for their kindness and generosity. They had two children, Lily and Ethan, who were adored by everyone in the town.
However, their lives took a turn for the worse when Mrs. Williamson fell ill and passed away. Mr. Williamson, heartbroken over the loss of his wife, became distant and started neglecting his children. Lily, who was only fourteen at the time, took on the responsibility of taking care of her brother and the mansion.
As years went by, Mr. Williamson’s business started failing, and the family was left struggling to make ends meet. One day, a wealthy businessman came to the mansion with an offer to buy it. However, Mr. Williamson refused to sell, not wanting to leave behind the memories of his wife.
The businessman, desperate to acquire the mansion, resorted to blackmail and threatened to reveal the dark secret of Mr. Williamson’s troubled past. In a moment of panic, Mr. Williamson took his own life, leaving behind his children and the mansion.
Lily, who was now eighteen, was left to take care of her brother and the mansion on her own. But with no income, they were forced to sell their belongings to survive. Lily’s mental health slowly deteriorated, and she became obsessed with the idea of keeping the mansion in the family.
One night, during a full moon, Lily made a wish upon the Binary Moon to bring her family back together and to make the mansion prosper again. But her wish came at a price. The deal she had made with the Binary Moon demanded a sacrifice – someone had to die in order for her wish to come true.
From then on, the mansion became cursed, and anyone who entered was doomed to meet a tragic end. Lily, unable to cope with her guilt and the weight of her actions, took her own life in the very room where her father had died.
As the town gossiped about the eerie happenings in the abandoned mansion, they never could have imagined the tragic story behind it.
Years went by, and the mansion remained empty, until one day, a young couple stumbled upon it and decided to purchase it. They were unaware of the mansion’s history and the curse that lurked within its walls.
As the couple settled into their new home, strange things began to happen. Objects moved on their own, and unexplainable noises could be heard throughout the night. The couple soon realized that their new home was haunted and decided to leave, but it was too late. The Binary Moon had claimed its latest victims.
From then on, the mansion remained a hot topic for ghost hunters and thrill-seekers, but no one dared to enter its cursed grounds. The mansion and its tragic history became a legend in the small town, and the Binary Moon continued to cast its haunting light over the abandoned mansion.
