Prologue
Curiosity got the better of me as I stood about three poles distance from the obscure house that stood in solitude from every other building in the town,
the mystery about the house needed to be unraveled, but by whom?many that have dared into the heart of the house did not come back to tell the story, those that managed to get inside and come out alive cannot talk about it because they lost their vocal cords,
they can only point their fingers at the building and shake their heads sadly.Two years ago, some kids had wandered into the house while hunting for rodentsin the surrounding bush.
a Rabbit ran into the house and one of the lads in his quest not to let go of the kill, chased the Rabbit into the house, and he was immediately followed by a second child, the third child stopped in the heat of the chase as he remembered his elder brother that entered the house a year before was yet to come out of it. He shouted at his friends to come out of the house but was too late.
He heard sharp and piercing screams coming out from inside to house, he did not wait to see the cause of their pain ashe fled the scene stumbling in the bushes, running into ant hills and tree stomps.
He charged out of the bush screaming, he was visibly scared and shaken, when he was held down by some adults, he was only able to tell them what the heard from inside the house when his friends ran into it beforehe was choked.
As he was trying to narrate his experience his tongue kept coming out from his mouth until he could speak no more.
He was abandoned there as everyone fled fearing that whatever had befallen the boy could affect them also.
The boy died on the spot where he was abandoned with eyes wide opened and his mouth covered with the biggest tongue size anyone could imagine the little boy possessed.
The mysterious disappearance of the two and the eventual death of the third boy led the village hunters to venture onan expedition to uncover the mystery of the house, they went at night with the hunters touch light, Dane guns and various Charms prepared by the Village Chief priest, “Baba nla”.
