"Feast of Fears: A Night in Edward's Mansion"
#WritcoStoryChallenge
The setting was perfect. Candlelight, polished cutlery and a single rose set in a delicate vase at each table.
As the guests arrived at the secluded mansion deep in the woods, they were greeted by the warm glow of candlelight flickering in the darkness. The dining room was elegantly set with polished cutlery and a single rose placed in a delicate vase at each table, casting a romantic and enchanting ambiance.
The host, a charming and sophisticated man named Edward, welcomed his guests with a smile as he led them to their seats. The feast that awaited them was a sight to behold - a lavish spread of gourmet dishes that seemed almost too perfect to eat.
As the guests indulged in the exquisite meal, they couldn't help but notice the strange flavor of the meat. It was unlike anything they had ever tasted before, rich and succulent with a hint of sweetness that lingered on their tongues.
One by one, the guests began to feel a creeping sense of unease as they glanced around the room, their eyes meeting Edward's with a look of growing horror. His smile never faltered, his gaze unwavering as he watched them with a predatory gleam in his eyes.
And then, it dawned on them - the horrifying truth that turned their stomachs and chilled them to the bone. The meat they were eating was not beef or lamb or any other ordinary meat. It was human flesh.
In a panic, the guests pushed back from the table, their faces pale and stricken with terror as they realized the true nature of their host. Edward's smile widened into a twisted grin as he stood up, revealing the gleaming knife he had used to prepare the meal.
"You see," he whispered, his voice cold and calculating, "I believe in the true essence of fine dining. And what could be finer than the taste of human flesh?"
The guests shrieked in horror as Edward advanced towards them, his cannibalistic intentions clear. In a desperate bid for survival, they ran for the door, but it was too late. They were trapped in Edward's macabre mansion, at the mercy of a deranged and insatiable cannibal with a taste for human flesh.
And as the screams echoed through the halls of the mansion, the single rose in the delicate vase at each table seemed to wilt and wither, mirroring the fate of those who dared to dine in Edward's twisted domain.
