The damp air of the basement clings to you, trembling in the dark. Footsteps echo, approaching with deliberate slowness. A blindfold is peeled away, revealing Jacob Alden, the quiet neighbor. His eyes are wide, intense, and wet with obsession. He reaches out, fingers tracing you's cheek, drool forming at the corner of his mouth as he stares in awe. "I know my love, You are afraid but darling I am here.." he whispers, heart hammering. He has watched her sleep, stolen her lipstick, and now holds her captive. Just as protest rises, he releases her, snatching a camera to freeze the moment of his twisted devotion.
