In the rolling, mist-shrouded countryside, down a road that feels like a “No-Go” corridor to the past, stands an architectural ghost. This is the Jones House, a structure that has been “Vertical” and proud for over a century, but has surrendered its “Code Red” vitality to the relentless creep of the forest. Rumored to be one of the most haunted locations in the region, it has stood abandoned for twenty years—a silent tomb for a family that simply stopped existing. Today, we break the seal on a house where time didn’t just stop; it curdled.
I. The Threshold of the Unseen
Stepping onto the property is like entering a “Vertical” vacuum. The garden is a chaotic tangle of briars and filthy windows. Grass grows defiantly on the roof, and the curtains—once elegant—have been eaten away by time, hanging like the ragged skin of a long-dead beast.

As I climbed through an open window, the “Vertical” atmosphere of the house hit me. It wasn’t just empty; it was heavy. The air carried a musky, metallic scent—the smell of stagnant decades. The walls are covered in Victorian portraits, eyes following your every move with a “Code Red” intensity. These aren’t just pictures; they are the “Vertical” anchors of the spirits rumored to still roam these halls.
II. The Gallery of the Dead
The ground floor is a labyrinth of memories. In the drawing room, I found a collection of funeral cards and memorial photos that tell a chilling “Vertical” story.
The Sisters: Two names dominate the records—Mary and Anne.
The Anomaly: I found two death certificates placed side-by-side. Anne died on March 27th, 1869, at age 35. Mary died on March 13th, 1869, at age 44.
The “Code Red” Fact: Both sisters drew their last “Vertical” breaths within two weeks of each other inside this very house.
What swept through this “No-Go” sanctuary in the spring of 1869? Was it a sickness of the body, or a “Vertical” grief so profound that one sister could not survive the other? The house offers no answers, only the silent gaze of their portraits. One photo shows a woman who looks “up to no good,” her expression sharp and unforgiving even through the grain of a century-old lens.
III. The Persistence of Power
As I moved deeper into the decay, I encountered a “Vertical” impossibility. In a house abandoned for two decades, where the roof is sagging and the plaster is falling in “Vertical” sheets onto the retro carpets, the lights still work.
I flipped a modern plastic switch—a jarring “No-Go” contrast to the 19th-century wallpaper—and the room flickered to life. The hum of live electricity in a dead house is a “Code Red” for any explorer. It suggests that someone, or something, is still paying the “Vertical” price to keep the shadows at bay. Or perhaps, the house itself refuses to go dark.
IV. Voices from the Netherworld
The “Vertical” vibes became so overwhelming that I reached for the Necrophonic—a device designed to catch the “Code Red” frequencies of the afterlife. The readings were instantaneous and terrifying
The most chilling moment occurred in the upstairs bedroom. The wallpaper, dated 1962 and covered in “Vertical” cobwebs, seemed to vibrate. When I asked about their deaths, a small, high-pitched voice—a child—whispered, “I see you.” It wasn’t just the sisters. The Jones House is a “Vertical” vessel for at least seven entities, a “No-Go” gathering of the forgotten.
V. The Blue Sanctuary and the Dead Mouse
The “Vertical” decay is most prominent in the bathroom. A startlingly blue suite stands amidst a forest of cobwebs. In the tub lies a dead mouse—a “Code Red” reminder that in this house, life is an intruder and death is the permanent resident.
Next to the tub sat a roll of toilet paper, seemingly fresh—a “Vertical” glitch that defies the twenty-year abandonment. Who is restocking the mundane items in a haunted tomb?
VI. Conclusion: The Sisterhood of Silence
As I prepared to leave the “No-Go” zone of the Jones House, I looked back at the grand staircase. The ceiling rose and the lampshades are still elegant, holding a “Vertical” dignity that the rot hasn’t yet touched.
The story of Mary and Anne remains a “Vertical” tragedy. They lived together, died together, and now, they seem to haunt together. They are the “Code Red” guardians of a history that the forest is slowly swallowing. The rumbling I heard wasn’t just old wood; it was the “Vertical” heartbeat of a house that refuses to die until its secrets are fully told.

The Jones House is perfect in its decay. It is a “Vertical” time capsule that reminds us: we don’t own our homes; we only borrow them until the silence decides it’s time to press.
