The Vampire Across the Hall-2. The Murmuring Lift
Page 2
Finally, I had to go shopping, so I left the apartment. I heard the murmuring voices as I walked towards the lift. They got louder as I approached it. I took a deep breath and pressed the lift button and waited for it to arrive. The doors opened and after hesitating, I took a step inside the car.
The lift slowly descended. Then it stopped dead between floors. The whispering started and then a voice clearly said, ‘shaddup’
I gulped, and tried not to panic. ‘ummm…Hi is anybody there?’ I whimpered.
‘Did you say something?’ The voice came back, ‘Hey Ethan, I think this bird actually said something? Were you talking to us love?’
‘ummm yes, umm…’ I wasn’t sure what to say, so I went with cliché, ‘My name’s Daisi, what’s yours?’
The relationship between me and the ghosts in the lift improved steadily from that day onwards.
