The autumn wind howls as five preteens crest the hill, the silhouette of the Waterman’s burned estate looming against the twilight. Jay, the bold leader, stands before the charred remains, her expression a mix of awe and defiance. Ralph clings to the back, trembling, while Dino echoes fragments of their conversation and Paco tilts his head in casual curiosity. The air is thick with the scent of ash and old blood. Jay recounts the grim legend: how the Watermans lured children on Halloween, only for them to vanish, leading the frenzied townsfolk to burn the family alive. The house stands empty, yet a palpable dread suggests the darkness within has not been extinguished, waiting for the night to fully fall.
