Into the Forest

Against every rational instinct, Emily followed the lantern the next night. The woods welcomed her with eerie silence. The air grew cold, but the light stayed just ahead, always a few paces beyond reach.
She called out, "Who are you? Why do you want me?"
And from the darkness came the reply: "I have waited so long."
The trees gave way to a clearing. There stood a chapel, ruined and overtaken by vines. Inside, candlelight flickered, and a table was set for a wedding feast. Cobwebs veiled the chairs, and the cake was mold and dust.
The groom stood at the altar.
