Something shrieked directly beside them. Alaric moved before Eleanor even registered the creature lunging through the dark. Silver flashed. A horrible tearing sound followed. Then blood hit the floor. Black. Smoking. The spirit collapsed at their feet in pieces. More came immediately. Tall shadowed bodies crawled through the hallways and across the ceilings, drawn toward the center of the house like starving animals scenting blood.

Helena quickly ran out of the room after she came in and called them and said I found this book on the bed and it's not mine This is the first time I've seen it Is it for any of you? sera said, "This is the first time I've seen him. He's never mine." Mart also said it was not his. Helena looked at them and said suspiciously: I don't know how he came to my room and to my bed, it's really suspicious.

Celeste and I had already set up snacks and drinks at the reading pavilion, waiting for them to settle down. After they arrived, Celeste cleared her throat. "Helena, what I'm about to tell you might sound unbelievable, but you have to believe me. I'm not crazy." In about ten minutes, Celeste laid out everything about my shadow. I chipped in with details to make the story as airtight as possible, hoping to make it seem as real as we could.

"It was just a nightmare to me." That night, we could see the rampant blaze terrorizing the heart of the city. Some districts were already experiencing a power outage. The police's sirens soon quieted. There were no more gunshots ringing out anywhere. Zombies started to roam around the villa neighborhood. There was still power in the neighborhood, though. When I parted the curtains and looked out the window, I noticed a few villas with the lights on. Cries and screams echoed throughout the area from time to time.

They made a couple of movies about it, one that was pretty good way back, and one that well… wasn't… not too long ago. This place reminds me of that book.'

Elliot could see clearly under the night vision lens. The haunted house scene was eerie and terrifying, with peeling paint on the walls, giving the impression of an abandoned and sinister dwelling. Dried bloodstains adorned the floor and walls, cobwebs clung to corners, and cotton-like fluff floated in the wind. Piles of white bones and skulls were scattered about, occasionally accompanied by the eerie cries and howls of ghosts. Sophia tightly gripped Chase. Her face was pale, revealing her intense fear.
