*1999*
Two rebellious teenagers decide to explore the abandoned house known as the Labyrinth house to see if the rumors are true. Both walked into this house with their minds full of doubt. As they enter the house, the entrance has the appearance of a normal house. Couple of end tables sit in the corners, one on each side of room. In the middle of each table sat a vase; both with the same strange-looking black flower. As they examine them closer, they notice the flowers begin to bleed. Thinking it's a prank, they both laugh it off. On the wall behind the flowers letters begin to appear they read it out as the sentence forms.
"this is your warning"
"get out"
Both laugh, still convinced this is a prank and begin to head up the stairs. The hallway looks normal and there are four doors. Two on the left side, two on the right. Each one of them pick a door and go separate ways.
*Door #1*
The teenager walks into the room, and the door slams shut behind them. All of a sudden the room turns into a long hallway; the boy becomes confused. Slowly he begins to walk down the hallway and notices there are no doors. The hallway begins to extend, going on forever. Finally an entry way appears; he takes the right turn in the hallway. Noticing it was another hallway, he turns around to go back. He walks right into a wall. He became severely confused due to knowing he just turned. With no other choice, he continues to walk down the hallway, noticing there is only one way to go.
Hour after hour goes by, feeling like an eternity. The kid just walking down hallway after hallways; no way to turn back. After about four hours, the kid finally finds his way back into the real hallway. Terrified, he bolts out of the house and never returns.
*Door 2*
The second teenager opens their chosen door and finds a bathroom. He laughs it off and walks into the bathroom, looking around. Everything looks normal, a nice shower with a bathtub, a toilet in the corner, and a counter sink. Looking in the mirror, the bathroom door slams shut. The boy jumps a little and laughs it off; he stops laughing the moment he looks back into the mirror. He could not make out what was staring back at him. It was not his reflection but more of a demonic looking creature. Stunned, he can't move; breathing becomes a little difficult. 'Is this where I die?' He thinks.
The creature does a circular motion with his hand, and a huge hole appears in the floor. He begins to fall, surrounded by complete darkness. It began to feel like he was never going to stop falling; just then he hits the ground hard. He's surrounded by dirt and rock walls. It seemed there was no way out, he searches every inch of the wall. Not a single opening, yet somehow he begins to feel something crawl on him. Where did it come from? As he looks down he sees three spiders crawling on him, but it's too dark to make out what kind. He grows paralysed due to having an arachnophobia. All of a sudden he slowly begins to sink into the ground, the spiders still attached to him.
*March of 2005*
A tour bus pulls into the little town that's nicknamed "The silent town" for a tour. Everyone getting off the bus noticed the odd behavior of the residences right away. There was no conversations between people, no talking what so ever. The tour guide began to explain the history of the town, and the first stop was the Labyrinth house. She began explaining the 1999 incident explaining that one boy was never seen again after entering the house; the second currently residing in the mental ward in the town. Once she explained everything, the front door of the house opened. It instantly slammed shut and a deep voice screamed, "no speaking, no outsiders. Leave now while you've got the chance!"
Majority of the group instantly ran back to the bus, and decided to stay on it. Those who weren't scared off by this incident continued to explore the town. A little girl with pink bow pig tails comes running up and covers her mouth with her finger as to say 'shhh'. She then held up a paper that read "No speaking or it will come for all of you. Please leave before you become cursed too."
After this incident everyone decided to leave the town, not wanting to disturb the beliefs of the town. Once returning home, six of the people who were in the tour group died, six people hospitalized in comas, and six people placed in a mental institution. All tours to the town shut down after this incident and many people began to believe in superstitions. What is next?
Ritual behind the 'silence'*The cult*
From 1903-1906 a cult formed in the shadows of the town. Five members made up the cult, all who didn't speak a word. They named themselves the 'silent cult' because none of the memebers were allowed to speak unless it was for rituals. This particular cult did not worship Satan directly but instead a demon named Verrine. Verrine is the demon of impatience who is said to appear in the form of a woman in a white dress with butterfly like wings. Her wings portraying these colors: blue, green, and yellow. Each member was only allowed to dress in one of these three colors. In the beginning of 1905 the cult changed, they no longer lurked in the shadows and began sacrifices and rituals to summon Verrine.
They started out with sacrificing farm animals, and over the year began to take pets. At the end of 1905 a couple of children went missing along with a handful of women and men. None of the people were ever found after going missing. This lead the town to panic, unsure of what to do. Whoever was responsible was outsmarting the law too. No one was ever caught. October of 1906 is when the town changed for the worse.
*1906*
As the silent cult took a stroll through town, no one seemed to notice them. The group dressed in all blue to not attract attention, and as normal didn't speak a word to anyone. They lived their whole life in silence, because they feared angering Verrine and losing their life. Slowly and quietly they walked through the shadows of the town, looking for more sacrifies. Then that day they found the ultimate sacrifice. A woman in her mid-20s dressed in a long white dress; a sign of purity. She was a thin woman with medium brown hair, a perfect representation of Verrine. Quietly they stalked the woman home and waited for the sun to set. Once night time rolled around, they caught her by surprise and knocked her out. In the darkness, they took her to an abandoned house where their ritual was set up.
In the middle of the living room there was 5 candles set up in pentagram shape. The candles are black, with drops of blood from each cult memeber melted in with the wax. Once she was placed in the middle, they began the ritual speaking in latin. Once they got through the chant, the leader drove a homemade knife right through the girls heart. Her blood poured out into the pentagram set up, but didn't leave it. The floor soaked up the blood and a strong gust of wind blew through the house. A human form shadow appeared over the girl; then her wings spread and the colors became vibrant. Now a woman stood in front of them, but it wasn't just any woman it was Verrine.
This ritual released chaos onto the town. Verrine a force not to be reckoned with especially with her short temper and intensity of her violence. The Silent Cult had no idea what they had just released into this town. The question is: Is Verrine the only one who surfaced with this ritual?
