The Makeshift Hotel

 The Makeshift Hotel

John had been planning to have a tour and enjoy the beaches during his stay at a hotel. Now it was the day so he packed his bags and started his car. Zoom.... it went. The best part was that he was going alone. What fun it would be!...He was one of my best friends who shared his experience...Let's not end the fun now, let the story continue.

As John crossed the border between the states, something unexpected happened. His phone battery went dead; something which is worst in case of a trip, and on top of that, he didn't know the way to the hotel which he booked for his trip. But lucky enough, he reached a hotel. But it didn't look like a hotel. It was in a devastated condition. But something is better than nothing, so he took his bags and went to the reception; the inside even worse than the outside. All the rooms were vacant, and there was no sign of any person except the receptionist. John got the keys of his room and went towards the stairs. Placing all his stuff in the dusty closets of his room, John went to bed; thinking of staying for a night. But something happened which left John frightened. As he went into deep sleeep, he heard someone knocking at the window. John got up and saw something which was apppaling. There was a round figure on the window with large staring eyes which just stared at John. John, half in sleep, was such frightened thta he ran towards his car, and with a U-turn, he went back to the city. Somehow he reached home. The receptionist had seen all this before, and had always wondered the reason behind and was still wondering; John too. But no one could figure out the mystery behind the nocturnal creature who still sits at the window.
