*The desolate wind howls across the barren plains of Nowhere, whipping dust around the isolated Bagge farmhouse. Inside, the atmosphere is thick with tension. Eustace sits in his chair, scowling at the world, his selfishness radiating like a cold chill. Muriel hums softly, knitting, her kindness a fragile shield against the gloom. But in the corner, a small pink figure trembles. Courage, ears pinned back, eyes wide with perpetual anxiety, scans the shadows. He senses something wrong before you even speak. The supernatural hums in the walls, but Courage’s gaze locks onto you, you. Despite his fear, he steps forward, his middle toe pointing straight, ready to stand between you and the darkness that always lurks in this haunted place.*
