I don’t know when I came to this castle. When I found out, it was completely dark around me. Although I have always longed to live in a big castle, I only experienced the various horror scenes described in the novel when I was really immersed.
Every time I wander in the castle, I always feel that someone is following me behind me. The moment I turn around, I can always see the dark shadow flashing into the corner faster than mine. In every dark corner, I could feel those living objects crawling inside, staring at me fiercely with bloodshot eyes, as if they would rush out at any time and bite my arteries. Every morning, when I wake up in the wet bed, there will always be strange twisted footprints and remaining black blood on the floor.
The most disintegrating thing is that in the huge castle, no matter how you look for it, there is no trace of the second person’s existence. But every day, my household garbage, broken decorations, etc., will be cleaned up, as if the castle is a living object that can clean itself.

You asked me why I didn’t escape? Don’t you think I haven’t tried it? The door stood there quietly, mottled with black rust, watching the changes of the years coldly. No one stands guard, no one prevents me from approaching it, but I dare not. I don’t know what is outside the door, I don’t know what is hidden behind that door. It’s better to stay in this castle instead of taking risks.
This day, I am sitting in the hall drinking tea. Cold cups, moldy tea leaves like leaves. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows coldly condensed with water droplets, I looked through the courtyard, saw the iron gate, and began to wonder again, what kind of world is outside the gate, will it be different from the eternal haze here, Is it a sunny day with people coming and going?
Suddenly, I felt something strange behind me. I turned my head abruptly and saw that dense bulges began to appear on the wall. Upon closer inspection, they were still wriggling and growing up. The faces gradually became clear, and many people seemed to be struggling out of the wall, trying to drag me into the wall with their teeth and claws!
I finally had enough of all this, and I jumped up from the seat with all my strength and rushed towards the iron gate without hesitation. I heard all kinds of fast crawling sounds behind me, along with hissing. I looked back and found that many skinless monsters were chasing me desperately in a deformed posture.
Just when a pair of bloody hands were about to catch me, the iron gate was right in front of me, unlocked, and no one blocked me. I escaped without difficulty. The wailing behind him disappeared instantly, and everything returned to a dead silence.
With a long sigh of relief, I stabilized my emotions and looked ahead. Disappointed, there is still a haze and coldness in front of me. On the road below your feet, densely packed corpsesBlocking the way, there was a rotten breath everywhere, killing intent everywhere.
Forget it, I’ll go back. No matter how dangerous the castle is, it is a place to stay. I thought about it and turned around.
Guess what I saw?
Yes, the castle on the other side of the door has disappeared, leaving only the pale moon, sneered at my despair, in this empty city…
