House of Terror Part I

The car finally gave out. Jeff hit the dashboard in frustration. It was bad enough that the car had to break down, but at night, in the rain, in the middle of God knows wherever he was, it was a fitting end to his bad week. The week had seen his wife leave him, taking the kids with her.He had been demoted at his job, and was forced to go back on the road as a salesman. Now that this has happened, and the things weren't going to get better anytime soon. Jeff decided that he might as well try to find a way out of this mess. He considered waiting in his car for another car to come by and help him. The road wasn't often used though, and that might take hours. So Jeff decided to first walk down the road to see if there were any other choices. After walking for half hour in the pounding rain, Jeff finally came across an old house in the woods. Now Jeff had seen enough horror movies to make him turn back, but the rain alone was enough to override his sense of fear and trepidation. He walked up the winding road up to the door. The looked to be very old, and not kept up well, and Jeff wondered if anyone lived there anymore...
