There once lived a family that never slept. They had red eyes that had popped out of their sockets with their eyeballs hanging on their faces. They were always tired. They were afraid of sleeping as every time they slept, dead people would haunt them. These dead people haunted the family as it was believed that their ancestors mistreated them and therefore, a curse was placed on everyone in the family.
One day, as the parents were in the basement, the children went outside to explore. The neighbors, upon seeing the children, screamed in horror as they had never seen such hideous people in their lifetime. Afraid, they called for a town meeting and the family was banished from the town making them move to the nearby forest. In the forest, all the animals were afraid of them because they were so hideous, even the bears and lions couldn’t go near them. They looked for the strongest tree and built their house on the tallest point of the tree.
