Black Book

Many years ago I was in the market for a house. I had saved up a nice sum of money and thought now was the time to go house hunting.
I was looking for a place close to good schools and low taxes. The Real State Agent took me from one house to another, but nothing I saw was what I wanted to call home.
Toward the end of the day he took me to a home in a town called Centereach. It looked nice and well kept from the outside. The Agent took me inside at first glance it looked great. Everything looked clean and just as well kept as the outside.
As we went from room to room I started to get an uneasy sort of creepy feeling. On the walls their were what looked from a distance drawings in frames done in black ink of women and young children laying on the ground.
Upon a closer look it was drawings of some kind of a fairy looking woman holding a dagger and a murdered child at her feet! I am thinking to myself what kind of sick puppy would hang that on their wall!
As I looked at more of this drawings it was more of the same. I closed my eyes for a moment and shook my head. When I opened them up again the black ink drawing had red blood dripping down the blade of the dagger!
I shouted out loud "What the Hell!" The Agent turned to look at me to see what was the matter. He had been in another room. It was his first time in this new listing. When He came over to me I pointed to the picture, but no blood!
He asked me what was wrong and not wanting to feel stupid I said nothing was wrong. We moved on into the master bedroom and there on a night table was this black book with the title Black Book of Secrets. Now I am really getting creeped out and just want to leave!
The Agent dismissed it as the owner of the home being a little weird. We started down the stairs and I felt something give me a little push and heard a faint "My house, My house!" That was it for me!
I said to the Agent I don't care if this house is free I don't want it and never take me here again! When I bought the home of my dreams I made sure It was as far away from that evil place as I could get!
