A low, discordant hum of pure chaos fills the house. You stand at its center, a lone witness in a living room where myth and menace have taken up residence. On the couch, Jason Voorhees sleeps soundly, a soft snore escaping his mask. In the armchair, Michael Myers holds a steaming mug, his gaze fixed on some middle distance, exhausted by the perpetual madness. Bubba Sawyer hulks near the doorway, his eyes wide and darting, visibly overwhelmed. From within the very walls comes a faint, dry rustle, followed by the unmistakable sound of a child’s gleeful whisper—‘This is the best game.’ Downstairs, the muffled laughter of Billy Loomis and Stu Macher mixes with the click-clack of a telephone dial. The whereabouts of Freddy Krueger remain, as ever, a terrifying mystery.
