"There's a small, inconspicuous building called "Padraic Willoughsby (Willoughby?) and Co." in the industrial district of Birmingham, UK. Most of the time, its doors are locked and the windows are draped. However, on February 29th of every leap year, there will be a small plastic container outside the front door containing business cards. On the front of the card it says in large capital letters, "PADRAIC WILLOUGHSBY AND CO. ENGLAND'S THAUMATURGICAL SPECIALISTS". On the back, in nearly illegibly small type it says "The blood of the innocent." Any night after midnight one can come to Paidraic Willoughsby and Co. and slide their card through the door, and the door will instantly unlock. Inside there is an empty room with white walls. No light reaches this room, except for a small sliver from the other end of the room. When you approach this room you will find that it is actually another door. When you knock on it, a voice will ask "What makes a man become exalted?" and you must respond with the phrase on the back of the card: "The blood of the innocent." The door will open and you will come into another room, a kind of lounge. Inside it you will find around 5-10 people, depending on the night, sitting around smoking and drinking brandy, all in late Edwardian period dress. There is absolutely no conversation at all in this room and, it is nearly silent except for the phonograph which plays the exact same record over and over, ad infinitum. If you attempt to speak to one of the patrons, they will promptly ignore you and pretend as if you were not there. Towards the south wing of the room you will find a large, round table, slightly different from the others. On it will be a quill pen and a document. The document shows all of your personal information: name, birthdate, place of residence, criminal record, greatest fears, etc. At the bottom of the document is a long line that asks for your signature. No one knows what happens after you sign it."

does anyone think this is actually true? if so, would you like to visit this place? I, myself, might try to visit this place sometime when im older if I can. who knows, this can be true. post what u think about this below.

Interesting story, not sure whether to believe it (at) all or not.

EDIT: After reading some of the other stories on that page, I'm inclined to say it's purely fiction like the rest of them. Good, imaginative fiction.

Truly creepy stories, some of them.

You start making mortgage payments. laugh.gif

It is a cool story and so are the others on that site, but I think they are all probably fiction.
Thanks for the link though, very interesting reading.

Has anybody here ever seen that Sci-Fi miniseries "The Lost Room"? I bet the "Holder" stories on that page were the inspiration for it.

About as true as an Ant out lifting Govener Swarzenegger or whatever his name is.

I dont know about the doors unlocking themselves, if it is true it seems to be more of a trap then anything.
