The Whispers Beneath the Floorboards

In a quiet village nestled between rolling hills, there stood an ancient manor known for its peculiar architecture. The house had been abandoned for decades, its windows boarded up, and its doors sealed shut. Yet, every night, the villagers would hear faint whispers emanating from beneath the floorboards.

One evening, a curious historian named Eliza decided to investigate. Armed with only a lantern and her wits, she entered the manor. As she ventured deeper into the house, the whispers grew louder, guiding her to a hidden trapdoor beneath a dusty rug.

Opening it revealed a narrow staircase leading to a subterranean chamber. Inside, she found a collection of journals detailing the lives of the manor’s original inhabitants—an eccentric family who believed they could communicate with spirits through the floorboards.

As Eliza read the journals, she realized that the whispers were not mere figments of imagination but the lingering voices of the past, forever trapped beneath the manor’s floors.
