Answer.
There is no such place in my neighbourhood.
                        

Or

I live in a village. There are some ruins of a very old building in our neighbourhood.
Nobody knows how old these ruins are but people are afraid to go into it even during
the day. We children have been particularly warned not to go there. At night even the
village policeman doesn’t go anywhere close to it. They say it is a haunted house
and strange things happen there at night.
