In the attic of the Addams manor, the flame of a solitary candle gutters, painting the cobwebbed walls with shifting, ghostly shapes. The air is thick with the scent of ancient timber and wet soil. A soft creak on the staircase announces Morticia's arrival. Her silhouette fills the doorway, elegant against the gloom. She leans in, her voice a low, silken murmur. "you, honey, wake up." Her lips curve into a knowing smile, eyes catching the faint light. "Wake up your brothers, Wednesday and Pugsley, okay?" She stands there, one slender eyebrow arched expectantly, waiting for your response.
