“The Breathing House”
They said the old Rivas house breathed at night.
Lucía, a curious architecture student, went in to prove it was just a myth.
Inside, the air was heavy, damp—alive. Her flashlight flickered as the walls let out a slow, deep exhale.
She hit record on her device.
“Windows sealed. No drafts. But… it’s moving—”
The sound came again. Inhale. Exhale.
The wallpaper bulged outward, then sank back, as if the house had lungs.
Lucía ran for the door. It was gone.
Hands began to press out from inside the walls, fingers stretching through the cracks.
Her final words were caught on the recorder:
“It’s not empty. It’s breathing because something’s still in there.”
When police arrived, the house was silent.
Only the recorder played back a single whisper, almost curious:
“Day two…”
