Joon and Meena were a young couple looking for their first home together. They searched far and wide until they found a beautiful old house on the outskirts of town. The house had a large yard and plenty of space for their future family. They were thrilled to make an offer and move in as soon as possible.

As soon as they moved in, they started to notice strange things happening. Doors would creak open on their own, and objects would move across the room when no one was near them. They shrugged it off as the quirks of an old house and tried to ignore it.

One night, Joon and Meena woke up to the sound of children laughing. They both got out of bed and walked down the hallway towards the sound. The laughter led them to the children's bedroom, where they found the toys scattered all over the floor. But the strange thing was that they hadn't had any children yet.

Over the next few weeks, the strange occurrences continued. Meena would hear footsteps in the hallway when no one was there, and Joon would feel cold spots in certain rooms of the house. They started to feel uneasy and wondered if there was something wrong with the house.

One night, while they were having dinner in the dining room, they heard a loud thump from upstairs. They rushed up to investigate and found that the door to the attic had been opened. They had never been up there before, but now they were curious. They climbed the stairs to the attic, and what they found inside was chilling.

In the attic, they found a small room with a cot in the corner. The room was filled with old toys and children's clothing. Joon and Meena felt a sense of unease wash over them, and they hurried back downstairs to get away from the creepy room.

As they sat in the living room, trying to calm down, they heard the sound of footsteps coming from upstairs. But this time, they heard more than just one set of footsteps. They heard multiple sets of footsteps, and they were getting closer and closer.

Suddenly, the door to the living room burst open, and a ghostly figure appeared in front of them. It was the ghost of a woman, and she was covered in blood. Joon and Meena were frozen in terror as the ghostly figure spoke.

"This house belongs to me, and I won't let anyone take it away from me. I killed my family in this house, and I won't let anyone else live here. Leave now, or suffer the same fate as my family."

Joon and Meena didn't need any more convincing. They quickly gathered their belongings and fled the house, never looking back.

After they left, the house was left abandoned for years. No one wanted to buy it, and the locals claimed that it was haunted by the ghost of the woman who had killed her family. Eventually, the house was torn down, and the land was left to return to nature.

Joon and Meena never forgot their experience in that house. It haunted them for years, and they never went near the area again. They learned that sometimes, it's better to leave things alone, especially when it comes to haunted houses.
