You get strange cravings and desires
by: Unknown
It was 8:pm, and it was hailing very hard outside. You looked outside your bedroom window and stared blankly into the violent display.
It had been more than two months since you went into that house and vowed to never return. No doubt, some of the rumors about it had to be true, you wondered if you were lucky to even be able to run out of the house in one piece after you encountered that ghost.
But like any haunting (apparently,) you could never leave completely unchanged. Sure, the terror alone was disturbing, but after all this time you had mostly gotten over that. It was the strange desire it left you with that was a problem. Since the moment you stepped out of the mansion, you could barely get your mind off of one thing: babyhood. You had no idea how, or why, all you knew is that you wished you could go back to infancy, and that the haunted house was no doubt responsible for it.
You didn't dare tell anyone about any of it, including your parents. Especially from you being a teenager, they wouldn't believe you at all. But you had to do something, lack of infantile supplies and practices were apparently giving you sleeping problems, eating problems, lower grades, irritability and overall depression. It didn't do any good how much you did NOT want to go back to doing things you were weaned or trained from doing since before preschool, because it really didn't seem like you had a choice, other than getting a phycologist, but that would of course require telling your parents. You wouldn't have to mention the ghost, but you'd have to talk about your pathetic desires.
