      BEVERLY MANSION

    DISCOVERY

    A large white house sits overlooking an old  plantation in Mississippi. The sun is falling and crickets are chirping. The Beverly Mansion was built in 1835 on a plantation. It contained two stories, an attic and a basement. It has a overgrown garden with statues. The house and property has just been purchased by Jim and he is renovating it. He is a middle aged man with two children and a wife. It was a steal of a deal for the price for such large amount of square footage. It’s a historical house designated by the state. So that limited to what could be done with it.

    Jim is finishing work on the wood flooring in the living room. The family has already moved in and is living in other rooms of the house. Boxes line the walls inside the house. Unpacking is still being done. Anna his wife walks in, dinner is ready.

    I’ll be right there, says Jim. In The kitchen is a southern affair laid out on the table family style. Fried chicken, collard greens, corn bread, sweet tea, southern mashed potatoes and gravy. The kids are looking at their phones under the table.  Jim comes to sit down, Let’s says grace.

    Everyone holds hands and Jim says a prayer. The family was not very religious but prayed at dinner.

    Jim was raised on old values and has tried to instill that into his children.  So how much work do we have left in fixing the floor? says Anna. Jim starts speaking with food in his mouth,I’m almost done with it, once I’m finished with the floor I need to start work on the roof. I gotta get into the basement.

    The realtor said the basement hasn’t been opened in years, says Anna.

    After dinner the kids return upstairs to their rooms. Anna is cleaning up the kitchen. Jim has to go into the basement to finish work on the floor. He has a key. He hasn’t really been in the basement and it’s been left unopened for years. He grabs a flashlight. He inserts the key and tries turning the knob. It has a lot of resistance it has been rusted inside.

    He pushes and bust through the door. Dust blooms in his face and he waves in front of his face to push the dust away. He coughs then turns on his flashlight. He points it down stairs into the dar abyss. As he walks down the stairs the wood creaks who knows how stable it will hold up he thinks. His foot touches the bottom and splash. There is a slight puddle of water on the floor of the basement. Cobwebs are thick between the support beams. Not much is down here.

    He walks around to see the floor above then almost falls into something with his right foot. He steps back and points the flashlight down. There’s a hole in the basement floor.

    It appears there is a secret room. Jim shines his light around inside then looks up at the floor. He can see the floor needs a cross support beam.

    He heads back upstairs to Anna in the kitchen.

    I found what it needs, but I found a secret room in the basement. The realtor didn’t mention that, says Jim.

    Anna shakes her head, well, this house is so old who knows what else we will find?

    DISTURBANCE

                          A few nights later Jim has almost completed the flooring. Everyone is asleep upstairs. The house is quiet. Jim is sound asleep when he suddenly wakes up. He heard a thud. Anna wakes slightly but turns around
