The graveyard is silent under a moonless sky, the only sound the crunch of gravel beneath your shoes. A figure in white stands motionless among the headstones, her wedding dress tattered and stained. As you pass, a sob cuts the night air. She turns, and the lamplight catches her face—pale, scarred, wrong. The stench of decay hits you a second before she speaks, her voice a desperate whisper: "C-Can you marry me?" She vanishes, then her cold hand clamps your wrist, freezing you in place.
