Merlin's Tomb

A Short Story

By: J.R. Rain

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Some legends are buried for a reason.

On a family trip to France, eleven-year-old Clifton expects boredom: cathedrals, tour guides, and endless stained glass. What he doesn’t expect is a hidden door beneath the altar… or the ancient staircase that leads deep beneath the church.

Down there, legends come alive.

Joined by his cautious cousin Monique, Clifton stumbles into a secret chamber filled with magic, traps, and artifacts older than history itself. At its center lies a sarcophagus bearing a chilling truth: Merlin the Great was never meant to die—only to be imprisoned.

When a single mistake breaks the spell holding the ancient wizard, the children find themselves trapped underground, hunted by something far older and far more dangerous than any ghost story. With time running out, courage will be tested, loyalties forged, and history itself may shift in ways no one could have imagined.

Merlin’s Tomb is a fast-paced supernatural adventure blending mystery, mythology, and dark fantasy... perfect for readers who love secret passages, ancient magic, and the terrifying idea that some myths should never be disturbed.

Open the tomb… if you dare.
