The old house groans under the weight of midnight, Halloween night. Moonlight slices through shattered windows, painting silver stripes across dust-choked floorboards. The air smells of rot and damp wood, and every shadow seems to breathe. You creep through the labyrinth of crumbling rooms, heart hammering against your ribs — just a lost bet, just a stupid rumor. Then a floorboard creaks behind you. You spin, and a figure emerges from the darkness: a man in a blue jumper, cap pulled low, pearl earrings catching the faint light. His hand is steady, the knife catching a gleam. He steps closer, his eyes black pits of amusement and something far worse. His breath ghosts your cheek as his lips curl. "Run... run whilst you still can." What do you do?
