We had been driving for four hours when we saw the sign for a small hotel and decided to
stop. While we were looking for a place to park, my wife told me that being there was a bad
idea. She felt scared but she didn´t know why. I tried to explain to her that we needed to rest
because we still had a long way yet. After she listened to me, she agreed to stay.

We went to the reception desk in order to do the check in. However, nobody was there. We
had been waiting for an hour when a woman appeared. Her face seemed to have received a
beating punch and she even she had a little some blood on her forehead. I looked at my wife
and I saw his panic expression so I took his her hand and tried to calm her down her. While the
receptionist was giving us the key to the room, we heart an explanation heard and explosion.
The receptionist started screaming and disappeared. In spite of this strange situation, we
decided to wait inside the room but suddenly many bats began to fly inside the room. Firstly, I
covered my wife with my jacket to protect her but the bats kept on appearing! We had been
fighting with fought them a few minutes and later we decided to leave the room.

For our surprise, the car wasn´t in the parking lot so we started to run. We had run half an
hour on the road when we saw a car in the distance. We shook waved our arms for help but
the car didn´t stop. We were desperate and we didn´t know what to do. My wife asked me if
we should went go back to the hotel and I replied that we had not didn’t have another option.
We walked to the hotel but nothing was there, the hotel was had disappeared. We didn´t
understand what was happened happening. That could only be a nightmare! Unexpectedly,
the receptionist showed up and asked us what we were doing in the middle of the road. We
explained to her that we were lost because when she left the room bats appeared and we felt
scared. She said us that it was impossible because she had never left the room and invited us
to come back.

We agreed to his request and we returned to the hotel, took the keys and went to the room
number 666. Thereafter after that, everything was normal but we never knew what had
actually happened that night… until we leave left the room the next day…
