One night, on a dare with friends, I went into the large old abandoned barn at the end of my street. When I went in, I saw it was filled with various objects and it had many different rooms. I was standing in the middle of the old barn, alone with my thoughts.

The only reason people thought it was haunted was because of the horrible smell that emanated from it and the weird bump noises that they heard every night, though it could have easily been an animal looking for shelter. But when I went inside, I could smell something, but it was far worse than others had described.

It... it smelled of rot... and decay... so much so that I felt like I was going to be sick! There were very faint footsteps outside, but I guessed maybe I could hear my friends outside trying to scare me. Which they were failing at, of course.

I looked around and found a couch to sit on. I flung myself onto the couch just waiting for morning to come, unafraid of the barn seeing as it looked completely normal. I sat on the couch for a good 25 to 30 minutes when I heard a loud scream... coming from one of the rooms- it sounded like a woman!

I bolted up and ran to the room running my hand frantically along the walls looking for a light switch when I found one I flicked it on and saw... an empty room. In somewhat a daze, I walked out of the room and sat down again trying to piece together if I had indeed heard what I thought I heard.

Then not a second later another scream came from the one of the other rooms. Again I bolted up and ran to it, and upon finding a light switch I flicked it on an... again nothing, Not even a footprint in the thick dust. I couldn't decide if I was imagining it, dreaming, or just losing my mind.

I didn't even have enough time to think when again I heard a scream, This time, remembering the footsteps I heard, I thought maybe my friends Jenny, and the twins, Claire and Milly, were doing it to scare me so I chuckled and yelled out, "OK guys you got me, I'm a little freaked out, OK? Happy, guys?"

There was no answer, so I yelled out again, "C'mon guys you GOT me! OK?! Joke's OVER let's just go home now!" Still no answer.

I guessed they weren't done fooling around so I sighed and sat on the couch.

I heard three more screams coming from different rooms, But I didn't budge, since at the time I thought it was Jenny, Claire, and Milly, trying to freak me out.

It wasn't until I heard a scream directly behind me when I jumped up and turned around... and saw a woman standing directly behind me... covered... in blood.
