Häxan (second version)

The small village of Drumfirth was nestled in the misty hills of Scotland, and despite its beauty, the place was shrouded in a dark mystery that scared off many travelers. The locals whispered of witches and demons that preyed on the unwary, luring them into the ancient ruins that dotted the countryside.

Among these ruins was the haunting presence of a woman, known only as the Witch of Drumfirth. She was said to have lived in the times before the arrival of Christianity, and had been deemed a heretic by the church. Her name had long been forgotten, yet her story remained, passed down through generations as a terrifying legend.

It was the year 1922, and young Alice had just arrived in Drumfirth. Her plan was to research the local folklore and write a book on the myths that swirled around the village. She rented a small cottage on the outskirts of the village, determined to unravel the secrets that lay beneath the surface.

With her trusty notebook and pen, Alice began to amass a wealth of information about the legends that surrounded the Witch of Drumfirth. But as she dug deeper into the history of the village, she began to uncover a disturbing truth.

There was an underground cult in Drumfirth that worshipped the Witch, and the villagers were afraid of them. Alice was shocked to discover that her landlady was a member of the cult, and she sensed that something sinister was brewing in the shadows.

One night, Alice saw a group of people dressed in black robes, heading towards the ruins of an ancient chapel. She followed them and witnessed a terrifying ritual that seemed to summon a demonic presence. Alice was caught by the cult members and taken to their leader, a stooped figure with wild hair and piercing eyes.

The cult leader revealed himself to be the re-incarnation of the Witch. He spoke of a prophecy that told of the witch’s return and the eradication of Christianity from the land. Alice was horrified by the madness that had consumed the cult, and she vowed to stop them and reveal their insanity to the world.

Alice’s research led her to an ancient book that contained a spell to banish the dark powers that had been summoned. Armed with knowledge and determination, she set out to foil the cult’s plans.

As Alice approached the ruined chapel, she felt the weight of centuries of darkness bearing down on her. The cult members emerged from the shadows, brandishing their knives and chanting in a language that Alice did not understand.

Alice began to recite the spell, her voice ringing out clear and strong. The air crackled with magic, and the ground trembled beneath her feet. The cult members screamed as the demonic presence was banished back to the abyss from where it had come.

The village of Drumfirth was never the same after that night. The cult disbanded, and the Witch of Drumfirth was forgotten once again. However, Alice knew that she had come face to face with something that was beyond human understanding. The experience would stay with her for the rest of her life, and her book on the myths of Drumfirth would be a bestseller, sparking a renewed interest in the occult.
