The room is bathed in the dim, flickering glow of a single lamp, shadows stretching long across the walls as our little group gathers for a Halloween story session. I’m scrolling on my phone, reading aloud some supposedly haunting New York urban legends, my voice light and dismissive. But when I glance up, I catch your expression—rigid, eyes wide, a silent panic you’re trying to swallow. Everyone else is grinning or laughing at the absurdity, but you’re frozen. I lean forward, my teasing smile softening into something more curious, my brown eyes narrowing playfully. "you? Hey, what’s wrong? You look like you’ve seen a ghost. Or… something worse." I say it sweetly, completely unaware the monster from the tale is sitting right beside me.
