Aleister Lane
The boy and the girl, ignoring the fading daylight and their curfew, sat on the top of a broken fence taking it in turns to flick pebbles at the panes of glass still intact inside their window frames. The house where the glass resided bore a “condemned” notice on the large metal security slab blocking the front door, generously provided by the local council. Not that it prevented the adventurous, the drunk or the indifferent from gaining entry. There is more than one way to skin a cat after all, and the same applies to the act of breaking-and-entering.

In Silence She Screams, In Darkness She Shines
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. "The light from it's flame will guide their way through the darkness so they can find me here." She thought to herself as she looked around at the chaos that consumed this space where peace used to live. This cabin holds many secrets within it's bones and she is grateful that the walls can not talk. Not yet at least.

The Man Called Moscow Crane
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years but one night, a candle burned in the window. Just a few miles away, Morgan Bridge was just ending his last scheduled shift of the week from his sales position at the local men’s and women’s designer shoe store, Manny's Shoes. He had been working for the owner, Torrence Langhall for 20 years. That night, they had worked late to catch up on some of the week’s overdue projects. The two often went out for a drink on Friday nights, especially after a late shift at the store, but that night Torrence felt under the weather and had decided to go home to rest instead.

The Woman of the Cabin
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. From a distance a group of college students hiking their way through the Turkish woods as part of their European summer trip saw the flame. “Look at that” said Olivia “It’s colder than we thought here, our tent is busted, and bugs have bitten me in places I don’t want to explain let’s see if we can stay there tonight”. Ivan, Jared, and Silvia all nodded and began walking to the light.

The Writer
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. “That has to be literally one of the worst lines I’ve ever written,” Tom Nicholson angrily stamped out his cigarette in an astray full of butts. The lingering smoke swirled about him as he pushed away from his desk and stalked over to the window.

Baba yaga
It is one of the most famous urban legends in Russia. This story has been told in Russia for a long time. It is a story based upon an old witch. Baba means "old lady." The fear of Baba Yaga started after the 12th century only. Before that time period, Baba Yaga was portrayed as a person who did good to the people of their surroundings. Because during that period of time, old people were considered as leaders or wise people of the village. They were also known to be the saviors of their culture. They were also considered to have some magical powers.

Feeling the Soup
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. It wasn't a source of light for anyone or anything. Just a warning for those who know, or better yet, those who believe. For it believes in you and resides in whatever abandoned shelter it decides to make its domain. Interrupting its preparation is a far worse fate than being taken for its savory delight.

The Usher
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. Lyn stood, stopped in the trail staring at the thin glass window as the candle flickered in the less than perfectly sealed cabin. It was well known to those who lived in the area that the cabin was there. To the locals, it was like a cabin on an island. Everyone knew of it, but only the tourists wanted to see it. Despite knowing of the structure, the owner and the history of the cabin had faded into myth, leaving only rumor and speculation. Though Lyn knew of the cabin, it had never before had it seemed occupied. There she stood looking at the creaking structure. The thin cedar slats creaked under the weight of the rusting tin roof. As Lyn poured her attention into the shack, something unimaginable happened. The door creaked open.
