Horror short story, #3

I might have watched too much vampire movies!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My parents, my brother, and I were touring somewhere. Europe, for sure. The hotel had a tour to go to this old castle. Many hotel guests signed up, including us. We were bussed to the castle. It was old, with stonewalls and metal spikes. It was cloudy and cold. I was feeling weird and said we had to go. We didn't see Mother. I kept insisting to Father and Brother that we had to go. Next thing I knew, Father went looking for Mother. I told Brother we must leave now. It was getting dark. Brother said no; then he went looking for our parents.

The tour guide now insisted we all had to go. I got on the bus with the other tourists. Strangely, multiple buses came; only one bus was full and returning. So I was in my seat, completely freaked out. Then this woman in the seat behind me elongated her neck, like a snake. Her head hovered on top of me, then she shot towards me to bite my neck. Blood everywhere.

I know that long-neck woman was Rokurokubi (ろくろ首, 轆轤首).  I don't know why I dreamed about her on a tour bus to an old castle in Europe.  Rokurokubi does not kill nor drink blood.
