Chapter 3 - Tunnel Vision

In Willows Creek, Maryland there's an old cave that stretches out for a few miles. Over the years the entrance of the cave has become a popular party spot for teenagers, and has been decorated with lights, blankets, and chairs. But lately, people haven't been using the cave entrance as much. Why? You may ask. Because in the last year, nearly 20 children have gone into the cave tunnels, but never came out. People decided that the tunnels were confusing, and people were getting lost and dying of dehydration, so caution tape was put in front of it, and it was cleared out. But as curious children do, Daryl and Jenson decided to grab their headlights and helmets and explore the cave. They got to the entrance and began walking in. The ceiling was dripping with moisture, and it smelled mildewy. The boys decided that in order to not get lost, they would leave a trail of spray paint on the wall. The further in they got, they narrower the walls seemed to appear, and the dimmer their lights seemed to look. Suddenly they saw something run in front of them, and they felt a searing pain in their eyes. Deep within the tunnels lived a hermit, who defends his home by spraying intruders in the eye with acid and stabbing them dozens of times..
