about

The three of us lay on the dock breathing in the purifying salt air. No one spoke. As if someone or something was intentionally trying to destroy our all to brief moment of respite there was a loud wash. It sounded like a tidal wave coming in. We jumped to our feet. The water was still, but the noise continued. A wind was gathering in the distance. The powerful gust moved trees like they were nothing more than paper. As it got closer, it grew in strength. Hundred year-old trees were bending like twigs. When it reached us, it knocked us to the ground. We were all winded.

As quickly as it started, it was over. We stood up. I held out my hand to help Shelly up. She dug her nails into my arm and began to claw my skin. She looked up and her eyes were as red as flames. Once more, I took the locket into my hand. When Shelly saw me close my fist around it, she let go and ran off into the woods.

Ricky and I dashed after her. We smashed and crashed our way through tree limbs and brambles. When we finally had to admit that we lost her, we were in front of the old shack. Cautiously, we circled the shack trying to peer in the windows. The dirt and grime of over a hundred years blurred our vision, but it seemed to be empty. I could barely make out the outline of an open trap door in the center of the floor.

That's where the tunnel led and that's where my boyfriend was standing to "greet" us

lyrics

Not Over After All

We fall to the ground
Breathless & exhausted
Salt air & sea sound
Our souls assaulted

Nothing else in sight
Noise intensifies
We combat growing fright

Wind howling, coming closer
Trees bending, genuflecting
Stay and wait until it’s over
Or run as fast as we can

It’s all over now
I reach to help you up
Your hands now claws
Eyes glow like fire
It’s not over after all

End where we began
No hope of escape
Fueled by adrenaline
We’ve again become prey

Windows thick with grime
On an old, crumbling shack
Inside a century of crime

An empty shack
Conceals a trap door
It opens up
Reveals below the floor
Catacombs
Paths to secret doors
Legends and lores

about

DiGregorio Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Descend the spiral staircase in front of you. Further, deeper, darker. Voices surround without source, some near, some far. Something moves in the darkness up ahead - is it human? Breathing halts. You cannot move. Hands pull at your arms and legs - but in this kind of darkness, you can’t see a thing.

DiGregorio was born from such a nightmare.
