Someone was killed in that house

Built the paper mill that pretty much put this town on the map

At least look for some stairs

Yep, just as I thought I got this place locked up pretty tight. Anyone got a pen

Meet Lola, she is madly in love with me.
- Yeah your hand baby nice Lola

The bellows had a secret a daughter that they never allowed to leave the house

The myth is that there was something really off about her
- a really scary part is that her family erased her from every single portrait?

It's this day

Nobody's ever found a picture Sara

They disowned her

Chuck if you jump out at me, I'm going to punch you in the throat

So what happened to her

Kids would come from all over in hopes to get a peek estranged Sarah and though they never saw her

They could hear her

Through the wall

Sarah told them stories scary stories

Some kids never returned home children around town who died poison they said

Everyone knew it was Sara, but before the mob could even get their hands on her. She'd already hung herself

And as the legend goes if you come with a bellows house had dark and asked Sara to tell you a story

It'll be the last story you ever hear ha ha

This

Well, that's it .
