THE DEVIL'S HOME The McGregor family doesn't have anymore money. John , Kate and their children Mickael and Maya must find a new house. While searching on the internet , John finds a big house , 20 km from Edimbourg where they actually live. With the house there's a garden of two hectares , two floors and all that for a cost very low. John doesn't ask questions and wants to visit during the next day. He talks about that to his family , Kate is really happy about the garden , it's always been her dream. She will finally be able to plant some begonias. Mickael and Maya are happy too , they'll finally get their own room , they won't have to share one anymore. The next day , they go to the house with the car. The estate is really big and the closest neighbour is 300m far from them. The estate agent is waiting for them in front of the door , his name is David. -"Hi , are you here for the visit? -Yes , we are the McGregor family , said John while going out the car. -Very good. (he shakes hand with the parents and smiles at the kids). This is the house , a garden of two hectares , two floors , you just have to develop the isolation because it's really cold during the winter. -Great , the price is still the same? -Yes , still the same. Suddenly David becomes more serious and says : -Do you know the story of this house? -No. -The family who once lived here vanished strangly , living all the furnitures , as if they left a hurry. -Interesting...There must be a reason , I don't believe in all this stories of missing people and dark spirits and all this world. -Be careful anyway ! So ,do you want the house ? -Yes , I'll be delighted , the estate is really attractive. -I'll prepare all the papers for you , you'll be able to move in next week. -Ok thanks." Another week week like the others , the papers are done , and the family can't wait ton move in. We are on Saturday. The family arrives at the estate and spends few hours choosing the bedroom , etc.. While going to the celler , John finds a hatch under a big wardrob who seems to be here since a long time. He hesitates to open it.
