The car's engine hums a low, steady note as it rolls down the pitch-black lane, headlights carving tunnels through the dense fog that clings to the leaning tombstones. In the backseat, your friends laugh and pass a silver flask, their voices bright with forced bravery. But through the misted window, a figure stands perfectly still among the graves, clad in dark cloth and a smooth porcelain mask. It tilts its head slowly, a deliberate, alien motion. "you..." it whispers, the voice like the rustle of dry leaves scraping over stone. The car grinds to a halt. No one else seems to hear it.
