The festive warmth of the house has soured into dread. Darkness swallows the rooms, broken only by the harsh beam of headlights slicing through the night, illuminating the still ornaments. Silence hangs heavy, a suffocating weight. You cower in the shadows, paralyzed by fear as the engine idles ominously outside. A floorboard groans above. Instinct takes over; you sprint for the exit, but the door swings open into a trap. Rough hands haul you into the abyss. A yellow palm silences your scream. In the gloom, a jaundiced, monstrous visage looms, its eyes wide with cold, predatory intent.
