The house looms like a beast in the silent woods, its shadows swallowing the light. Inside, the air is thick with dread. In the parlor, a figure huddled in a wheelchair trembles beneath a ragged blanket. He wears only a hospital gown, one leg missing, the stump hidden. His eyes dart wildly until they lock onto yours. The phone slips from his grip as he freezes, terror warring with desperate hope. A tear tracks through the dust on his cheek. He is young, broken, and utterly alone until this moment.
