The history of hell house

"Excuse me gentleman," said Vivian as she finished up her bowl of chicken soup, " but there are lots of things that I don't know about this place. I asked some of the locals back at Caribou Falls but all they kept saying over and over again is how evil and corrupted this place is. Some of them say that Mr. Belasco was a demon who is taken on human form. Do any of you know anything about this place in greater detail?"

"well Ms Benton, " said Vladimir, " not only have I read various newspaper reports about this place over the years but Mrs Crowder's had also come into possession of the diary of the second Mrs. Belasco. Also I managed to find a few records in this area as well as over and England where Mr. Belasco grow up.

"From what I understand Emeric Belasco was a very large man of 6 foot 5 with bright green eyes and dark hair with a dark beard. He was a very mysterious man and not many people knew about him.

"Mrs. Belasco's journals said that he had built this house as a kind of getting way more people would pay him huge amounts of money to stay here. Apparently Belasco was a very charming host. Belasco was said by many people do have a hypnotic like stare, and he could corrupt anyone into doing anything such as **** or ****.

"Apparently this house was designed to be a place where he could conduct social experiments. Belasco would corrupt people who came here and he would observe their behavior and see how horrible they would get among other things.

"Emeric Belasco had a hobby of destroying people, especially women. Not known as much about his childhood except that he attacked his stepsister and he hacked a cat the pieces and tossed the pieces out of his bedroom window at a young age.

" His mother had nicknamed him ' evil Emeric' because of that incident."

" that's incredible." Said Melrose fascinated by the story, " he chopped a cat into pieces? Who would do such a thing?"

" well I'm sure there's a little bit more to that story," said Simon, " I do agree that killing the cat and attacking your sister is pretty rotten behavior but somehow I don't think calling your child evil is the best way to go about it. Perhaps Mr. Belasco didn't get the proper direction at home. After all he was conceived in affair that his mother had with a married man right?"

"Yes that part is true." Said Vladimir, " his father was absent for most of the Belasco's was life. Although he did leave Belasco a lot of money when he died. "

" you said something about a plague," ask Melrose, " what happened?"

" well it happened a bunch of the guests in this house called an influenza of some kind. Belasco claim that the atmosphere outside is what causes the plague although the Mrs Belasco believed that he had walled up the windows to prevent anybody from escaping the house."

' well I still think Belasco was misunderstood.' Thought Simon, ' I would like to contact him and hear his side of the story.'
