This is a story from when I was in elementary school.
The town I lived in had a ruined building.
It was a 2-story apartment building with concrete walls. The windows were smashed and the whole structure was falling apart so local people didn’t really go near it much.
One day, my friend and I wanted to do a test of courage so we decided to go to this ruined building. It was still early afternoon so we climbed to the second floor to explore. There was a door with something written on it. We went closer to check it out and saw that someone had written on the door: “I am in the room ahead.”
My friend and I opened the door and decided to keep going. After a bit of walking, we had to go either left or right. On the wall, someone had written “I am to the left from here.” We were a little scared but went left and kept going.
We got to a spot where there was a room on the left and a room on the right. On the wall, someone had written “head to the left, body to the right.”
As soon as we saw it, my friend lost his mind and ran out of there.
But I stayed back and summoned all my courage to look in the room on the right. On the back wall, someone had written: “my body is below this.”
When I looked down… “My head is coming from the left room. You’d better not look back!”
I immediately escaped through the window.
I haven’t gone back there since then.

俺が小学生の頃の話。
俺が住んでいた町に廃墟があった。
２階建てのアパートみたいな建物で、壁がコンクリートでできていた。
ガラスがほとんど割れていて、壁も汚れてボロボロだったから、
地元の人間でも、あまりこの場所に近づくことはなかったらしい。
ある日、俺は友人と肝試しをすることになって、この廃墟に行くことにした。
まだ昼ぐらいだったから、建物の２階まで上がって建物を探索した。
そしたら並んでいる扉のひとつに、文字が書いてあるものがあった。
友人と近づいて確認してみると、扉の前に「わたしは このさきの へやに いるよ」と書いてあった。
俺と友人は扉を開けて中に入り、先に進むことにした。
歩いて行くと分かれ道に突き当たって 、壁に「わたしは ひだり に いるよ」と書いてあった。
少し怖くなったけれど、俺と友人はそのまま左に進むことにした。
すると両側に部屋があるところに突き当たって、壁に「あたまは ひだり からだは みぎ」と書いてあった。
友人はこれを見た瞬間に、半狂乱になって逃げだした。
でも俺はその場所にとどまって、勇気を出して右の部屋に行くことにした。
部屋に入り進んでいくと、突き当たりの壁に「わたしの からだは このしたにいるよ」と書いてあった。
下を見ると、「ひだりの へやから わたしの あたまが きてるよ うしろ みないでね」。
俺は急いで、その部屋の窓から飛び降りて逃げた。
それからはもう、その場所には近づいていない。
This story relies on establishing a pattern and then breaking it as the twist. As the narrator explores the building, he (gendered by the first-person pronoun 俺, ore) encounters several messages ”someone had written.” These messages present an unnerving trail of clues to find their mysterious author. These clues get more sinister as the story progresses, as some type of dismemberment seems to be at play. Still, the real twist in the break of the ”someone had written” -pattern. The final message about the approaching head is missing this descriptor, implying that this clue is delivered either audibly or through some kind of telepathy. Either way, it is scary enough that the narrator finally loses his courage and flees the building.
There are alternate versions of this story that emphasize a clean floor in the final room, further pushing the clue that the final message was not something ”someone had written” in a graffiti sense, but rather is either audible or appears supernaturally after the narrator has already entered the room.
