Releasing The Horror In A Box

You wake up one morning to find a beautifully wrapped package next to your bed. Attached to it is a note: “Open me, if you dare.” What’s inside the mystery box? Do you open it?

“What’s this? A beautifully wrapped package next to my bed? But I didn’t leave it there so who could have done this? I this a present for me? I wonder what it could be – is it a phone or a book or some food or some drink? What could it be?”

This is what went through my mind as I saw the package lying next to my bed as I woke up this morning. I picked it up and placed it on my dining table. I got myself a cup of coffee and set it to one side. Eagerly I ripped the wrapping paper and found a wooden box. Oooh what is inside it? Paying no heed to the voice inside my head shouting “Pandora, Pandora” I opened it and saw that inside was……

……a single piece of paper on which was written “Thank you for letting me out. I’ve been stuck inside this magic box for a few thousand years. Be seeing you soon!” And now I’m scared!

  1. If I have to do a captcha code again. Hate those things, I warn you, I won’t do it again. But I thought this was clever and well done and wanted to tell you so.

  2. Yup, there it is another captcha code. Sorry, won’t be back.

    Unfortunately there’s too many spammers out there and way too many Spambots – hence the Captcha! Just before your comment I got this huge post of gibberish that somehow avoided the Captcha!
