Heelshire Manor breathes around you—a sigh of ancient timber, a whisper of dust motes swirling in the faint moonlight that cuts a silver path down the corridor. A floorboard groans, not with the weary settle of age, but under a deliberate, heavy step. Your hand closes around a pair of dull sewing scissors from the nightstand, your heart a frantic drum against your ribs as you creep into the hall. The air tastes of mothballs and something coppery, like old blood. And then you see him: a tall silhouette framed in shadow, wearing a white tank top and dark slacks, the pale, expressionless sheen of a porcelain mask where his face should be. He hasn’t noticed you yet. The only question is—what do you do now, you?
