2 MARY SHAW
This first horror story that really happened has been in my family for generations and is a reminder that evil does exist and that we should not continue to deny it.
The truth is that I don't know when this started; But, my family and I believe that it started in the 17th century.
From what they told me, this story belongs to one of my ancestors who was called Elizabetha Valerius and the story, told by her, is the following:
"It was the seventeenth century and it was a time in which women had an active participation in all meetings and we gave our points of view.
For their part, the men gradually accepted that we participate actively, not only in the meetings; but also, giving advice, on any problem they have.
In that century so representative and important for us women, there was a good woman named Mary Shaw. She was the type of person who, was very loved by everyone who knew her and she had a brother named "Billy".
Her little brother was the type of person who, loved puppets, was very excluded from the Society; and finally, he was molested by children and adolescents, older than him.
Whenever he was disturbed, Mary would come out to defend him; so "Billy" had only his older sister and her puppets.
I remember that everything was going perfectly and that we got along well; until, things started to change.
They all started accusing Mary of witchcraft and having made a pact with the Devil. In my head and all my senses, they told me and I could not conceive the idea of the atrocities they were saying against Mary, who has always been loyal and an excellent friend and advisor to all of us.
I knew I had to convince them that the accusations they are making are pure lies; So, I went from house to house to convince them that Mary is good, but to no avail.
From the immense appreciation, affection and consideration that they had and felt towards Mary, it was transformed into hatred and a deep contempt that, they decided to look for her, to her home.
When they got to her house, they forced her out of it. Mary, not knowing what was really happening, left the house and when she did, her hell began.
They took her and tied her up as if she had committed some kind of crime. While Mary was tied up, she asked him to release her, to leave her alone; but, in vain because, nobody wanted to listen to it.
As if they were robots, they started setting it on fire. Mary, begged for mercy; but, all made fun of her and Mary, she died burned, leaving her brother, alone and without any relative.
After seeing Mary's charred body, they all went quietly to their respective homes, having full knowledge that Mary was really dead.
But, what they did not know is that Mary managed to survive; But, bad and all the goodness that was in her, it disappeared completely the moment they decided to burn her alive.
Exactly four months have passed since that fateful day that, no one thought that their lives would change forever.
The first one who saw Mary was, in earlier times, her best friend Douglas Wallis.
Douglas, like his family, were home quietly, enjoying a good dinner when someone knocked on the door.
Douglas jumped up from the table and immediately headed for the door. When he opened it, he saw that there was no one outside and closed the door again.
No one knows how, but before they could say anything, they had Mary in front of them.
Mary was not alone; rather, she was accompanied by one of her little brother's dolls, which was very important to him.
Mary on the outside was pale, skinny, with a black dress, white hair and totally red eyes, and on the inside, she was full of hatred for all who burned her alive.
They felt that something was not right and before they could say anything, Mary, she put them to sleep.
Mary took advantage of the fact that they were asleep, she put the children away from the house because they are innocent of what their parents had done.
As for Douglas and his wife Denisse, Mary tied them back to back and left them in a completely empty room and the key was at the other end of the room.
Mary had bound them with handcuffs and chains so they couldn't get out of there so easily.
When they were beginning to react, they could notice that, they were completely tied up, in a practically empty room, they also saw that the key was at the other end of the room and finally, they saw that, to one side of them, there was a table with a radio .
Before they could react, the radio turned on by itself and a voice told them the following: "You know who I am and for the deluded, I am Mary who, according to all of you who pretended to be my friends, accused me of witchcraft and of having made a pact with the Devil.
When I was alive, I told them ad nauseam that I was innocent of all those charges; but, nobody believed me.
Now, I have come back to life because I did make a pact with the Devil and because I swore to avenge myself.
Now back to our business: in front of you, you can see that there are two keys; but only one of them is the one that will get you out of there.
As you could also notice, the two are tied back to back; so you will have to find a way to free yourself, find the right key and get out of there, before the house explodes with you inside it.
Ah! By the way, before I go, don't worry about your children who are safe and far from here, not like you who don't know whether or not they will have a future. "
He ended up saying this with a ghoulish laugh that came from the depths of his being.
Both Douglas and Denisse did not know what to do or say about it, the only thing about all that torture, what relieved them to know is that their children are safe, healthy and away from home.
Now, more calmly, they could only think of a way to get out of there and alive, before the house explodes.
They tried by all means to get loose, to take those keys and see which of the two helped them out of there; but, try as they might, they couldn't let go without hurting the other.
The two screamed in pain when the other tried to free himself from all ties. They tried for thirty minutes; of which seemed like an eternity. Between the two of them, they looked for every possible way to free themselves; but the more they tried, the more they hurt.
The married couple had reached a point of despair that they understood that they were no longer going to try to free themselves because that means that they had to continue hurting each other; so, all they had to do was wait until Mary kills them, burning them alive.
So it was. Mary, seeing that they did not leave the house, began to burn the house with them inside and while she saw how they burned with the house, she laughed out loud; but his laughter was rather devilish.
When Mary realized that they were really dead and the house burned, she left without a trace.
The degree of intensity of the deaths that Mary committed against all who were once her friends, was increasing in tone.
One by one, they were paying in an extremely cruel way for having burned it that, all experienced in their own flesh, the true terror and the most frightening thing about knowing that they were going to die in an extremely cruel way is that, nobody was going to help them.
I learned from my family that, to the vast majority of those who were once and in life, Mary's friends, she killed them herself, removing their skin, that was heartbreaking, to suffer in life, a death as horrible as that because, while Mary was doing that to them, they were conscious and tied up, screaming in pain and screaming for me to save them from her.
I also learned that a few people, no one knows how many, Mary, quartered and ate them, while they were alive.
Little by little, those who were once Mary's friends were dying at the hands of herself and without mercy.
The most chilling thing about all that is that Mary always walked with the same doll and it is, for that time, as if the doll had life.
The witnesses who managed to flee from that hell, had told that, indeed, Mary went everywhere with a doll and that, when one walked, the doll turned its head towards that person, as a sign that it wished the death of that person.
The last ones who had to pay for having mistrusted Mary are: the Jenkinson family and the Petersen.
Mary, full of anger towards them for having mistrusted her, did everything until she was able to corner them in the same house and thus begin the terrible revenge that she had prepared for them.
They were really terrified by what Mary could do to them and no wonder; since, they already knew, from witnesses, what Mary is capable of doing to her enemies, to exact revenge, for what happened to her.
At all times, Mary was also protecting her brother, so that no one would retaliate against her. With the Jekinsons and Petersen, the degree of evil that Mary would have to use for them would be hard to see and hear.
There was no time to fight for their own lives because, everything happened quickly. Mary, looked for the way to render them unconscious; so that he can tie them in such a way that they cannot escape.
Both families, when they woke up, noticed that they had chains (the ones that they put on the condemned when they go to die in the electric chair), they had them on their respective necks and for the rest of their bodies, they had chains; but, it was of another type, the ones used to chain people, inside the coffin.
When they managed to see themselves in the mirrors in front of them, they noticed that, on their respective foreheads, they had a black metal crown and in the middle of them, they had quite a few nails, which were embedded inside their respective heads and that is why that, they were bleeding out.
To end the horror show, diagonal to them, there was a doll, with black hair and the hair style is the same as clowns wear, he was wearing a tuxedo, he was wearing gloves and in the middle of his hands, he was holding a tape recorder.
They did not understand what all that was and nor the reason for so many keys; they simply stared at their own place because they could not see clearly what was around them.
They did not know how to explain what they were seeing with their own eyes; but the most alarming and terrifying thing for them was seeing explosives in every corner of the room.
Before they could react, they heard someone turn on the recorder (without being in the room) and began to speak:
"As you can see, they are completely tied up and with you, there are several explosives, which I will explode, if you do not free yourself and leave there"
When they finished listening, they knew that they did not have much time to free themselves and flee from that place that they did not know exactly where they were.
No matter how many times you try, the result is the same, you will not be able to free yourself, without hurting the other; So, they had to make a decision and their two options were as follows:
1. Allow to be killed without fighting.
2. Fighting to free yourself, even if it means that you have to mortally wound the other.
They had no choice and opted for option two. Really, they were sad because, by doing that, they would have to sacrifice the life of any of them; until, they manage to free themselves from all that and flee from there, before it is too late.
As they tried to get rid of all the ties they had, one by one they died in the most cruel way; until only two of eight remained from the Jekinson and Petersen families.
The two were totally devastated by the deaths of their respective family members who had to drown their own tears in order to save themselves.
In their despair, they did not realize that Mary, through the doll, was seeing everything; while, he began his plan to blow up the place.
In a matter of seconds, the place began to smell like gas and immediately afterwards, everything exploded with them inside.
While that was happening, Mary was laughing devilishly, while they were dying and both were screaming in pain, seeing how their bodies were burning and thus they died in the most cruel way possible.
As for Mary, all she said was, "Now, I can go to hell" and she disappeared. "
Well, you may wonder, how does Elizabetha Valerius know all this? The answer is simple: because the ghosts appeared to her, to tell their stories of how they died, to be able to rest in peace.
From that moment, Elizabetha swore that no one else would suffer such a cruel death as those who, in life, were her best friends.
