Part 2

For the first part of this story click here.

As our eyes adjusted we all realized where we were. All around us decay had begun to take over what appeared to be a theater. Soiled red velveteen walls, chandeliers hanging from the ceiling, it was as if we had stepped back in time 60 years. The musty air inside the building was heavy thanks to the summers humidity. As we turned towards the front of the building we could see the stage area. A hole was in the roof producing the effect of a spotlight onto center stage. It was unbelievable. Complete darkness other than our lights and the hole in the roof. As we walked around we found that the seats had all been buried under dirt. You could see them just peaking through the ground on which we were walking on. We made our way to the rear of the theater to what used to be the concessions area. It was in near pristine shape. Amazing when compared to the rest of the building. With nothing in there to see we decided to head to the stage. The building had to be close to 200 yards long. Gigantic when your 14 years old.
As we neared the stage n the right hand side we noticed a closed door so we went straight for it. As we were nearing it a large crash came from behind us. Scared shitless we turned around and saw bits of roof caving in from the rear of the building. Shaken now we continued on. On the other side of the door laid a stairway. Steps led up and down so we decided to split the group up. Myself and 2 others went upstairs while the others went down.

As we turned up stairs ahead of us was the scariest looking hallway you have ever seen. It was about 20 feet long with rooms on either side. As we walked down the hallway the temperature got colder and colder. It was July and it was feeling close to 40 degrees in there. In the third room on the left we found a mattress that hadn't been used in years and a Bible in one corner. Thoroughly freaked out the three of us just decided to get the hell out of there. Before exiting the room we saw written on the wall in red The words "Edwards Room" Well Ed you can have it and off we went. We had checked every room up there and all were empty except that room. Walking down the steps we heard the others coming up. They reported that the basement was flooded with about 3 feet of water and that they could hear something moving in it. We figured it to be rats and informed them what was upstairs. "Let's go check it out" one of the guys said and they started up the steps when all six of us heard the most blood curdling shriek from the top of the stairs. All of sudden we were all track stars running in the dark. Behind us the shrieking kept up sounding as if it was right next to us and yet far away at the same time. We all hopped through the hatch in the air handler and went straight back to my friends house all white as a ghost and winded. As we sat there discussing what had just happened we could only come up with two ideas.
1.) We have to set up a camera in the upstairs and investigate the upstairs again.
and
2.) We have to buy 2-3 inflatable rafts because we were going to explore that basement again as well.

This is just the beginning.
