Airwind's Treasure Island: May 2006

Is 5.00am now... and STILL waiting for my brother to return... so i browse the Forums and came by these interesting scary stories to share :)

Story 1:
Back when Vietnam was raging, Mr. and Mrs. Horren had their only son, Jimmy, taken away from them. He was drafted by the US army, and was all too proud to serve the country. His father, however, had served in the Army during WWII, and knew that war could be hell.Jimmy wrote his family once every two weeks for four months. Then, suddenly, the letters stopped coming. Two months went by, and not a single letter came. The Horrens were petrified, afraid something might have happened to their boy.Just when they were about to give up hope, a letter came to them, sent from somewhere in North Vietnam. It read as follows:Mom and Dad,It's Jimmy. I've been taken prisoner and am being held in a POW camp in Vietnam. They are treating me very well here, so please don't worry. I love all of you. Please make sure little Billy gets the stamp for his collection. I'll write again as soon as I can.Love, Jimmy"Billy? Who's Billy?" Mrs. Horren wondered."It's a clue," said Mr. Horren. "He wants you to take off the stamp."Mrs. Horren boiled a pot of water, and held the envelope over the steam. Slowly, the stamp peeled off. Mrs. Horren looked at the underside, and screamed. Written there, scrawled in red in Jimmy's handwriting, was.....They've cut off my legs

Story 2:
There once was a lonely man who lived in an apartment complex a couple floors up. One day, he looked at the apartment complex across from his. He saw a window covered by curtains. However, he could still make out an outline of a woman, who appeared to be dancing. Over the course of the following days, he would look longingly at the woman dancing, at what appeared to be day and night. He fell in love with her, and so, one day, he finally got up the courage and decided to visit her. He got dressed up, bought some flowers, and was ready to go. He went up to where her room was and knocked on the door. ...no reply. He knocked again. There was no answer. Starting to feel worried, he started to rush and slam into the door. Finally the door gave way and he was eternally mortified at what he saw. There was indeed a woman yes, but she was not dancing...She had hung herself, and her body was just swaying in the wind (coming from an open window), giving off the illusion of dancing.

Story 3:
There was a man, let's call him Gregory. Gregory was carrying a small box, and he went to another man's house (we'll call him Jebediah) and knocked on the door. When Jebediah answered, Gregory said "I have a proposition for you. Take this box. There is a button inside. If you press the button before I return, someone that you don't know will die. Tomorrow, I will return. If you have pressed the button, I will give you $20,000."Gregory left the box with Jebediah. Jebediah had to consider what he was going to do. Eventually he decided that he didn't care about the person, and he pressed the button.The next day, Gregory returned to take back the box. "Well then, I belive that this is yours," he said, giving $20,000 to Jebediah. "Thank you," Jebediah said. "By the way, I'm just curious: What are you going to do with the box now?"

"I'm going to give it to someone that doesn't know you."

Story 4:
There was this old man who was the world's greatest magician, his name was Ken. His greatest trick though involved two glass containers about the size of phone booths. A person would stand in each one, he'd peform his magic, then people would appear in the other container that they had not started in. He had done the trick once to himself and twice to female assistants.

Since he was getting old and ready to retire it was time for him to find a younger magician to replace him. Eventually he found a promising young man (Henry) and took him as his apprentice. Henry was not only a great magician but extremely ambitious to become the greatest magician of all time. Ken had been his biggest inspiration and it was his dream come true to be his apprentice.

Henry knew most of Ken's tricks except for the glass containers. Impatient and furious that Ken would not teach him immediately. He disobeyed Ken and snuck to the containers at night to figure it out himself. He got in one and closed the door, nothing happened at first but then he began to suffocate. Right when he thought he was done for, some one opened the door. It was Ken and he was angry, he scolded Henry and told him the trick required two people.

Eventually the time came for Ken's last show. He signed off his manor, cars, money and everything to Henry right before the show leaving him with nothing. The show would be the official coming of Henry to take his place. Henry still didn't know how the trick worked and was scared when Ken told him they were going to perform it as the last trick. Ken told him not to worry, he wouldn't suffocate and they he would learn how the magic worked as it happened.

The show goes on and it's time for the last trick. Ken and Henry get into the containers but not before waving to the audience. The magic happens and everything gets blurry for Henry. Suddenly he found himself at the opposite side of the room! The tricked worked automatically! He didn't need to do anything! Suddenly he noticed he felt different. To his horror he saw his body was old and he was wearing Ken's clothes. He looked to his left and saw his own body waving to the audience. The glass chambers left the soul in the container but switch the bodies!

The curtains fell and Ken in Henry's body walked to Henry grinning.

"Hold on to that came Henry, you'll need it for those back pains. As you've probably guessed the chamber switches the body, but not the soul! You see I'm actually a magician from Egypt thousands of years ago... Not wanting to grow old and die I created this device to transport myself into a younger man whenever my current body gets too old. I do it about once every 40 years under the guise of a retiring magician. Allow me to introduce you to my female assistant. I'm sorry, my wife... She does the transformation about once every 20 years."

Ken walked away laughing, Henry tried to follow but fell to the floor in pain.

The others are all sorry and scared and tell the girlfriend how their trail has been blocked by rocks and her boyfriend has tried to clear the path, being the leader of the team, when he's killed by a landslide. That night they sit around the campfire and make dinner but nobody is talking. The team creates an eerie silence, perhaps because everyone's too upset over what happened.
