Foreword
The Sapphire Manor, an abandoned building standing strong in the middle of the modern concrete jungle of Seoul. If abandoned buildings needed a CV to be considered haunted, this one had the longest one.
Built in the 1950’s, the mansion was built on a rumored mass grave, the original owner of the building was a government official. The family became wealthy even in the difficult years that followed after the war. Almost the whole family got killed in a strange accident in 1960’s, the only survivor was a daughter, who inherited the mansion. She sold the mansion and moved to the US, never to be heard again.
The mansion was bought and sold to different people in the next decades, a series of unfortunate events happened there. Starting from a dead servant, suicides, murders, and accidental deaths. As the mansion had became an urban legend, it was uncertain if the stories were real.
In 1989, the house had been abandoned for a couple of years, there were talks about demolishing the house to build a high rise apartment, however, not long after declaring the plan, the owner of the mansion committed suicide after declaring bankruptcy. The next owner decided to try his luck and moved into the house. Just like the previous families, they became extremely wealthy, but their wealth didn’t last long, years later, a strange incident killed the whole family, leaving their young son as the sole survivor. The twelve-year old refused to talk and rumored to be locked in a mental institution since then.
Now the house had been empty for at least 9 years, its presence a strange existence in the middle of the modern architecture landscape of Seoul. People living around the mansion told stories about how the mansion seemed to be alive during the spring nights, some people claimed to hear faint music from the mansion, shadows could be seen through the windows, as if a grand party was being held there.
Some claimed to hear cries or angry screams from the darkness of the abandoned building in the coldest nights of winter. Several times the police was called by the concerned people, worrying that a murder might took place inside the mansion.
The stories were enough to scare most people, but Hyukjae was not most people.
He's going in to the abandoned Saphire Manor alone tonight.
