Describe a creepy old house. Describe the dilapidated facade of the house and the overgrown garden. Use two paragraphs.
The creepy, old house had fallen into a derelict state and its facade was one of utter dilapidation. There were crumbling walls, peeling paintwork, and cracked walls. There was also a gaping hole in the roof, where tiles had blown off last winter in the gales. Cobwebs decked every window and hung like macabre Halloween decorations.

Then, there was the garden. Just a tangle of overgrown shrubs and trees, where roots had broken up the path. The heads of grotesque-looking statues stuck out amidst the tangle of weeds. They looked supernatural in the dusk. Almost unearthly! Some said the garden housed an ancient graveyard. Former residents of the house were laid to rest in the place where they had lived and died. They were destined to roam forever as ghosts within the walls of the manor. The place was nightmare fodder.
