That was a dark night of full moon. Mr. Grapes was driving his car back to home from a late night business meeting. The roads were lonely. Most of the shops on the way were shuttered.

Mr. Grapes was tired and hungry. So, he decided to take a rest. He parked his car at a nearby restaurant and entered inside. There was no gatekeeper at the door. Mr. Grapes pushed the door himself. A creepy sound was heard from the opening of door-che-ee-eee.

The restaurant was empty. Nobody was there. It seemed to be old. There were spider webs at every corner, on the ceiling, on walls and on tables too. There were six tables surrounded by four chairs each.

      Mr. Grapes sat on a chair and called a waiter.                      

“Yes Sir"- a loud sound came from back of a door on which there was written in bold-"KITCHEN".

 I'm hungry. Can I get something to kill rats inside my stomach." shouted Mr. Grapes.

The door of 'KITCHEN' opened. A tall man wearing a dirty black and white waiter's coat appeared from there. His eyes were as red as furnace, had long, yellow and dirty nails. His teeth were dark, yellow and unbrushed. His hairs were curled from top and long from edges.

           Mr. Grapes was frightened by his scary look.

"Sir, what do you wish to have here." the man spoke slowly in a horrible manner.

“I want anything SPECIAL and faster as I have to reach home within an hour.” Mr. Grapes shouted as he wanted to get rid from waiter and get away from the restaurant quickly.

Waiter went inside the kitchen.

 Half an hour passed by, Mr. Grapes’ fear was increasing. He stood from his chair and rushed towards the door. But he was shocked when he tried to open the door. The door seemed to be jammed. Mr. Grapes was about to cry and he was angry too. He cried loudly-“WAITER.”  But there was no response from inside the “KITCHEN.”

At last, after gathering some courage he himself went to enquire in the kitchen.

He pushed the door and entered in the kitchen. The Kitchen was dirty. Spider webs were spread all over the kitchen. Two large pots with something boiling in them were placed on the floor. Red drops of blood like liquid was dripping from the ceiling.

Mr. Grapes again screamed in fear, ”Waiter!”

“Yes Sir!” Waiter appeared behind Mr. Grapes with his head in his hand and his red eyes were shining. Then the head on the waiter’s hand smiled horribly and said ,”Sir, isn’t it something special!”

Mr. Grapes was stunned and fainted on the floor.

When his eyes opened he found himself lying on the road in front of a large hospital. Mr. Grapes’s car was parked at the same place where he parked before entering the restaurant. Mr. Grapes was confused.

There were many people roaming there at that time. He asked an old man who was around sixty, ”Where is the restaurant which had been here before an hour or two?”

The old man laughed on Mr. Grapes’ question and replied ,  ”Gentleman you are the fifth one who had entered the restaurant within this month. Yes! There used to be a hospital but not before one hour or two, it was demolished TWENTY YEARS AGO.”
