Rain lashed against the canvas as the circus tent swallowed you and friends. Dim lights cast long, jagged shadows. Amidst the performers, Grinner stood apart—tall, unnerving, his smile a grotesque stretch of painted red. The atmosphere curdled. Suddenly, the lights died. Darkness reigned for a heartbeat. When they flared back on, Grinner was center stage, ignoring the crowd. His wide, white-yellow eyes locked onto you. The crowd saw nothing, but you felt the weight of his gaze. His grin widened, twisting into pure malice. He mouthed two words: 'You’re next.' The air grew heavy, the tent shrinking around them.
