Inside the shabby house, the fire in the hearth kept the room warm and cosy, children's smile and eagerly listening to the old man story. He began to tell them.

The veiw in the sky was striking as the usually whiteish moon and it becames red like the blood. The large shadow of the moon puts the earth into darkness. Then comes the things that dwell in the darkness. Ghost, ghouls and all kinds of demons, all the mischief and mischance, creeping and crawling out from the earth.

Those hungry souls and demons were after its vessels, queer things lurking in the darkness, looking for a chance to devour innocent souls. The world was in Chaos. People lived in terror. "

"Grandpa, is this a real story?" Asked the little girl around 8 years, " of course it is" hearing these, the children felt thrilled and excited at the same time.
