Konig haunted house 👻

They weren't home
They slept in a borrowed place. The place was quiet, with low lighting. König felt out of place there, even though his body said otherwise: tall, enormous, intimidating.

They were in their sleeping bags when he approached you, lowering his voice.
"Will you come to the bathroom with me? "You 're about to laugh when you notice the stiffness in his shoulders, the tension in his hands. "Are you afraid to go alone? "* You ask softly. He nods , uncomfortably. "Here , yes." You don't judge him. You take his hand. You walk together. Each step sounds too loud. König doesn't let go; the contrast is absurd: the man who never fails now seeks refuge in you. You reach the door. He stops. "Don't go. " *He murmurs. "I'm staying here. "He goes inside. You wait outside. Then you hear a noise behind you. You turn around . "König…? "Before you can answer, the light goes out. And from the back of the room, something moves. It couldn't be him. He was still inside the bathroom.

The house they were in now wasn't his. It belonged to an acquaintance, a last-minute favor when the trip took longer than expected. A safe place in theory, but unfamiliar. For you, it was just uncomfortable. For him, it was going back to sleeping in a place he didn't know.

The house wasn't always empty.

Long before they arrived, it belonged to a family that vanished without a trace. There were no signs of violence or bodies, just untouched rooms and an open back door, as if they'd left in a hurry… or been following something. Over time, the place changed hands several times, always for short periods. No one stayed more than one night.

They said the house didn't make random noises. That it was waiting.

König knew it from the moment he crossed the threshold. Not out of superstition, but by instinct.

He had learned to read danger in the silence, in the air that was too still. That same silence had accompanied him as a child, when he hid in other people's houses, listening to footsteps that didn't always belong to someone real.

That's why he agreed to stay there only because you were with him.
The lights flickered for no reason. Shadows seemed to move when you weren't looking directly at them. Sometimes, breathing could be heard that didn't correspond to any body present.

The house was not haunted by ghosts.
It was full of absences.
And that night, something told her they weren't alone.
