A new family just moved into a house. You are so excited that you run into the house and you explore the house. The
bathroom, the living room, the bedrooms, and finally, the kitchen. But when you walk into the kitchen, you see a note.
You pick it up and you see there are rules that you must follow from the previous owner. This is what it reads:
1.) Do not look in the bathroom past 1am. It will not be your reflection staring back at you.
2.) When leaving the house, leave quickly. Wait to put your shoes on until the door is closed and locked behind you.
3.) Leave crackers on the dining room table before bed every night. It gets hungry.
4.) If the brown haired doll moves from the right side of the white room to the left, pour a line of salt in the doorway. Do
not try to take the brown haired doll out of the room. She will get angry.
5.) If any paintings around the house have been turned upside down, burn them.
6.) sleep with earplugs in if the whispers disturb your sleep.
7.) Do not be alarmed if things aren’t where you left them. Calmly leave the room, and when you return it should be
back.
8.) If you hear someone asking to come in from outside between 3 and 4am, do not open the door. Pretend to be asleep
and keep your eyes closed until the pleading stops. Keep in mind that they may imitate voices you recognize.
9.) Do not stare into the basement mirror for more than 10 seconds. It may try to get your attention, or worse; come out.
10.) If the television turns on by itself between 8 and 9pm and plays only static, ask out loud for forgiveness. Then,
proceed to fill a glass with salt and place it on the floor in front of the television.
11.) A black box may appear in random spots throughout the house. No matter how much you may want to, never
remove the lid.
12.) Do not peak past the shower curtain until the water has been turned off.
13.) If the closet door is open upon waking up, calmly close it and leave the house immediately. Do not return for 24
hours.
14.) The tissue boxes may replace themselves. We don’t know why.
15.) If you return home and any of the candles in the living room are lit, leave the house immediately.
16.) If any piece of furniture has been turned upside down, leave the house immediately.
17.) If the woman’s painting appears on the wall at the top of the stairs, leave the house immediately.
18.) Do not turn off the hall light before the bedroom light has been turned on. Do not stand in total darkness.
19.) Always knock three times before opening the basement door. If something knocks back, leave the house
immediately.
20.) And above all, if you wake up between 3 and 5am, do not look out the windows. If possible, close all curtains before
bed. This was the mistake my grandfather made, and we still haven’t found his eyes.
