house
When they reached the haunted house, there was something so weird
and grisly about the dead silence that reigned there under the baking sun,
and something so depressing about the loneliness and desolation of the
place, that they were afraid, for a moment, to venture in. Then they crept
to the door and took a trembling peek. They saw a weed grown, floorless
room, unplastered, an ancient fire-place, vacant windows, a ruinous
staircase; and here, there and everywhere, hung ragged and abandoned
cobwebs. They presently entered softly, with quickened pulses, talking
in whispers, ears alert to catch the slightest sound, and muscles tense and
ready for instant retreat.
