Interestingly, I'm actually more intrigued with the idea of photographing old, forgotten buildings than I am with the horror aspect of the story. (Not to say I didn't think you did a good job with that; I think you have the horror mindset down well.) Old buildings are fascinating -- they always have so much character. I probably couldn't muster up the courage to photograph them, though, because they are also quite creepy lol.
I enjoyed the end banter the most. The dust ghosts part really cracked me up. So...wait...there're security guards at an old used library? Or are they there because of what's in the building on top?
Or maybe there were no security guards at all? Maybe it was a lost cat the whole time?!
Why didn't the author answer these questions?!?! Dun dun dunnnn!!!
Hah. I was thinking this was non-fiction until about page 3.
Kudos, this is probably the best (and only) horror story I've read. Uhm, the fact that you actually scared me with the plot and not bad writing skills. Yup, awesome-ness work. That's intelligent praise for you. ^^
Good job! *hugs and favourites*
Oooh, you're a good horror writer, SG. This was deliciously creepy, and you did indeed incorporate things from my workshop on Thursday. The characters' banter was great, and you did wonderful things with the atmosphere. Awesome job!

There are Xs in the sky driving me insane tonight.
I just skimmed it, 'cause it's pretty stupid of me to come in and start reading right off the bat when I need to go back and catch up on what the heck is going on, but it seemed pretty great so far.
I flitted through some other things in this world, and this seems like it'll be a lot of fun to go through later when I can actually make an intelligent comment. *brain dead*
Pretty cool, SomeGuy. I dunno why I didn't subscribe or go through your worlds early. Shame I didn't. *sighs*

Haha . . . none yet, no. Just things I learned from reading a couple websites and stuff.
No, I totally wouldn't do anything like this. Trespass laws and all that, y'know.

Ooh wow...you're good writing horror stories! You really caught the atmosphere pretty well. Does this story has any personal experience? =P
