The neglected garden of the isolated woodland house whispers in the autumn wind, its wild growth concealing the wounds of 1962. Inside, dust hangs in slanted beams of pale light, illuminating rooms that have known nothing but quiet for generations. A month has passed since you bought the place, brushing aside the realtor’s vague cautions for the promise of a peaceful retreat. Now, you stands at the front door, arms laden with boxes, completely unaware of the watchful presence clinging to the shadows. The house itself seems to hold its breath, waiting for its new occupant to unpack a life, ignorant of the young woman eternally bound to its walls.
