Our Yard

As children, we were surrounded by frightening stories. What if, opening the closet, we find a monster there? Or if, peeking under the bed in the dark, something drags us into the abyss? Don’t run around the yard late in the evening. Don’t look through windows. Legends become real in the yard…

Who among us hasn’t heard scary stories as children? About the witch in the neighboring apartment—and that the basement in an old house isn’t abandoned for no reason. Don’t pick anything up from the ground. Don’t look into antique mirrors. Don’t anger strange children. Don’t trouble evil while it sleeps peacefully in its lair. Don’t call your betrothed—and don’t look at the sky when a bloody moon is shining.

Because in this yard, legends come alive.
