Episode 1: The House No One Dared to Touch

○●○●○●○●○●○●○●

It was a lazy summer afternoon in the small fog-wrapped town of Moonridge, where clouds always looked like they were eavesdropping. The neighborhood echoed with laughter as a bunch of kids ran wild across Willow Lane, chasing dragonflies, throwing pebbles, and pretending the world was theirs.

In the middle of the chaos were two little legends—Aira and Ray.

Aira, with her messy ponytail and grass-stained knees, had the kind of energy that could power a train. She was fearless, loud, and always thinking of new adventures. Ray, slightly quieter but twice as clever, followed her everywhere, his pockets full of marbles and ideas.

That day, they were in the middle of a very serious game of “monster tag.” Ray had just finished being the last “monster” when everyone stopped, their eyes pulled toward the same place.

The haunted house.

It stood at the very end of the lane, behind a rusted iron gate. Its paint was peeling like old skin, windows fogged and cracked, and a giant tree stood in front of it like a watchful guard. No one ever went near it. Not even the grown-ups. The kids whispered stories about it—how the attic light would flicker at midnight, or how someone once saw a shadow dancing on the balcony.

“Bet it eats kids for dinner,” one of them muttered.

“Bet it snores,” Ray said, trying to joke—but his eyes were fixed on that blinking attic window.

Aira narrowed her eyes. “It’s just wood and dust. We could go in there and make it our secret hideout.”

Everyone gasped.

“If you’re so brave,” one boy challenged, “go inside.”

Aira smirked. “Tomorrow. Me and Ray. Ghostbusters edition.”

Ray blinked. “Wait, what?”

“Come on,” she grinned. “We’ll be legends.”

That night, while the rest of the town was quiet, Aira was in her room sketching an official plan titled: Operation Ghost Catcher. It had colorful stick figures, flashlight signals, and a pocket full of cookies (because ghosts might like snacks too).

Ray was… less prepared. He sat on his bed, nervously eating chips and practicing karate moves in the mirror. “Just in case,” he whispered.

The next day, the sky was moody and overcast. The other kids stood far back, holding their breath as Aira and Ray walked up to the haunted house gate.

The gate groaned like it hadn’t been touched in years. They pushed it open, step by step. The path was cracked and overgrown, and the silence around the house was so thick it made Ray sneeze.

Inside, the door creaked open with a slow moan. The hallway was dark, cobwebby, and smelled like cinnamon… and sadness. There were faded portraits on the walls and dusty curtains that moved without wind.

They stepped in.

“Aira… this house is giving me goosebumps,” Ray whispered.

“I know. Isn’t it awesome?” she whispered back.

Suddenly, a mirror in the hallway cracked with a tiny ping. They jumped. Then they laughed.

“Maybe the house likes us!” Aira giggled.

Ray pointed ahead. A rocking chair began moving on its own.

“…Or maybe it wants to rock us to sleep forever.”

They tiptoed through the living room, flashlights flickering. In one corner, an old toy chest creaked open slowly. Inside, there were ancient dolls—one blinked.

They didn’t scream.

They froze. Then Ray whispered, “Let’s pretend we didn’t see that.”

But what they didn't know was that something had already seen them.

A small glowing light floated at the top of the stairs. Watching.

Waiting.

In the attic above, two invisible beings floated in mid-air.

“New kids?” whispered a ghost in a top hat, sipping floating tea.

“Yes,” replied the other, wearing a tutu. “Oh, look how cute they are! Just like the last ones—except these two aren’t scared.”

“I like them,” the top hat ghost grinned. “Let’s not spook them too badly. Maybe just a tiny levitating cookie?”

Downstairs, Ray opened his backpack and gasped. “Where’s my cookie?!”

“Ray!” Aira whispered. “Look!”

From the shadows, a cookie floated toward them.

Ray blinked. “This is either the best day of my life… or we’re being haunted by a hungry ghost.”

The cookie dropped gently into his hand.

“Thank you?” he said to the air.

In response, the radio nearby clicked on—soft jazz music began to play.

Aira smiled wide. “I think we just made a ghost friend.”

The mirror flashed once. The rocking chair stopped.

Then everything went still again.

After twenty more minutes of cautious exploring, Aira and Ray left the house—alive, whole, and buzzing with stories.

The kids cheered when they returned.

“No ghosts?” one asked.

“Ghosts?” Aira said, flipping her hair. “They probably ran away from us.”

Ray just held up the half-bitten cookie and whispered, “I think we have fans.”

But the house wasn’t done.

Later that night, while Aira lay in bed smiling at the stars, her window gently creaked open. A faint laugh echoed into her room—soft, warm, and familiar.

Ray’s flashlight flickered on its own at his place, showing the words scribbled on his notebook:

“See you soon.”

Because once you step into Moonridge’s Ghost House…

you never really leave.

Not completely.
