haunted village
The road that led to and from Swinford was barely detectable beneath layers of dust, sand, shrubs and leaves. Gardens are bustling with insect life who've made their home in the now tall grasses and overgrown bushes.
Most doors still stood in their frames as if nothing had changed. A few were ajar for one reason or another, perhaps left open in a hurry. Paint crumbled off of the walls and were slowly replaced by vines that crawled their way towards the rooftops.
Swinford, once a growing community of hundreds of families was now a forgotten remnant of a time long passed. The creaking of wood and grinding of metal on metal were the only sounds in this town now. They were disturbing noises in a disturbing environment.
The safety of the bank was forfeited long ago. There was nothing left but empty halls and empty safety deposit boxes, boxes that made for great nesting areas for small birds who gladly took advantage of this.
Despite the many animals that inhabit this town it was still a very unsettling sight to behold. Nature had taken its toll on the vast majority of town. But even though many buildings had found a new purpose there was just no way this town's former self could ever be restored.
