The Old Castle (short story)

The rain poured down in torrents, pounding against the windows of an old truck that was parked in front of a decaying castle deep down in the woods. Julia, a girl who was always drawn to mysteries decided to venture into the heart of the darkness and pluck her courage to investigate what she heard about the old castle. As she drove through the Dark Forest, foggy clouds settled over her truck's window. After another half hour, the road narrowed and eventually led her to a dirt trail. Then suddenly out of the misty fog, a sign appeared that read: "To Phantom Castle." Julia headed for the castle to investigate more when suddenly, a BOLT OF LIGHTNING streaked, and the Dark old castle glowed in front of her eyes.
