Hey Guys! My first blog post and it's a story that I wrote with my friend.
The Underpeople |
The Underpeople, they live under old sheds, and usually out in the country. They often take place living in people’s backyards, as people are their main source of food and nutrition. They come out at night and take little children from their beds, showing absolutely no mercy, leaving dolls in their place. Sometimes they travel to large villages, where there are many children.
The Underpeople like to leave almost no evidence behind. If anyone had ever seen one, they would come back for them, to take them away. There have been two different sightings of the Underpeople, both descriptions almost matching.
Their skin a sickly colour of pale green, their hair thick, stringy and dark, with kind of a straw like feel to it if you were to touch it. Their eyes sunk into their skin, like they were malnourished, and their mouth a deep red colour, thirsting for the souls of their next victim. Their hands were very boney, but human, with long, sharp nails. They walked around with bare feet and their clothes were a kind of leather-like material. They wore furs of any animal that passed their hole of a home, which were also their food when they cannot find a human victim.
They say the ceremony to becoming an Underperson is a horrifying experience. It’s a gruesome ritual that only takes place during a thunderstorm. Even through the loud crashes of the storm, peoples’ screams could be heard. The rumours going around say that people in dark black ropes would strap you down to a stone table and rip your soul right out of your chest. They say the pain from your soul leaving your body is the most painful thing you could ever feel.
You see, the reason that the Underpeople eat humans is so they could get their souls back. The only problem with that is that when they eat someone’s body, they don’t get their souls. They don’t get full nutrients from eating the humans, and that’s why they look very malnourished.
An Underperson attracts it’s pray by acting as an animal that we know as friendly, such as a small dog, or a rabbit. Another way that they get their pray, is they come into your house during the night and take your child out of their beds while they sleep. They drag them out back to their hole of a home and devour their prey, usually saving the best part for last, the heart, which is the closed thing to the soul they could get.
Beware of any stray animals that wander into your yards, and be cautious of your family while they are asleep, for the Underpeople just might try to steal your souls.
