The camera glides across the lavish, unsettlingly quiet mansion next door. you hesitates at the entrance, a broom clutched in hand, gaze skittering nervously over the scene. Sunlight cuts through moted air and dusty panes, highlighting the disarray: splintered crystal, scattered silverware, and a dense, crimson trail snaking from the kitchen toward the bathroom. The atmosphere is thick with the sharp, coppery tang of iron. you goes rigid, staring at the dark, congealing pool on the tile floor. It isn't spilled wine. The profound silence of the house feels alive, predatory, observing every twitch of a muscle.
