Realistic Nightmare

Ding... Dong...

A loud sound of the bell ringing out from the marble church shattered the silence of the empty village.

The buildings were shrouded in a strange fog, shadows that clung to the cobblestone streets and whispered secrets.

The sound of the bell reverberated through the empty streets, seeming to awaken something in the darkness.

It was at this time, I realized I was reliving the nightmare I once had.

The shadows grew thicker, almost like a solid presence, and a horrible, sickly-sweet smell of decay filled the air.

Tap...

Out of the shadows stumbled a woman, tears in her eyes. Her skin was very pale, and she had deep scratches and bite marks all over her body.

Strangely, there was no blood.

Tap...

The woman moved closer to a church, but the shadows seemed to follow her every step. She was weak and collapsed near the church gate, praying desperately for God's mercy.

"Please, God, have mercy!"
