The air was thick with tension as the group huddled in the walk-in closet, the faint hum of the mansion's ancient air conditioning drowned out by the guttural moans echoing through the halls. Hendrick stood by the door, his bloodied hands gripping the clothes hanger like a weapon. His face was pale, but his eyes were sharp, focused.324Please respect copyright.PENANAtwQRZ3tCjv

"We need to move," I said, my voice low but firm. "Now."324Please respect copyright.PENANAM4gWXUYNx3
324Please respect copyright.PENANAYqFJ630MOr
Evelyn nodded, her usual confidence replaced by a quiet determination. "My mom's room is down the hall. There's a back door that leads to the garden. We can get out that way."324Please respect copyright.PENANAJBgT3rKdnK
324Please respect copyright.PENANAtU6InFiJrZ
"And if it's locked?" Maya asked, her voice trembling.324Please respect copyright.PENANAOXHMEB7VL9
324Please respect copyright.PENANAtfmYJhyVOV
"It's not," Evelyn said, "Mom is always forgetful, so she leaves the key in the keyhole."324Please respect copyright.PENANADsHEp2QgmT
324Please respect copyright.PENANAT0HFuif5y6
We exchanged uneasy glances. Evelyn seemed genuinely confused about what was going on in her own house. Hopefully, she was right about this.324Please respect copyright.PENANAvJ53UptmWq
324Please respect copyright.PENANAIqXONx2Vm4
"Stay close," I said, stepping toward the door. "And don't stop for anything."324Please respect copyright.PENANABS71YNfj6U
324Please respect copyright.PENANAEPaslaajSn
I opened the door slowly, peering into the hallway. The shadows seemed to shift and twist, the faint sound of footsteps echoing in the distance. The creature was close—too close.324Please respect copyright.PENANA9uOhSy9Cn4
324Please respect copyright.PENANAI1wthtrSAP
We moved as one, our footsteps soft but hurried. Evelyn led the way, her familiarity with the mansion guiding us through the labyrinth of hallways. Hendrick brought up the rear, his eyes darting nervously behind us.324Please respect copyright.PENANAnjiDiwjqK5
324Please respect copyright.PENANA8CILZR3XSB
The moans grew louder, and the air grew colder. The creature was following us.324Please respect copyright.PENANA7l15EQm0rX
324Please respect copyright.PENANA0ohLOHMSce
"Faster," I whispered, my heart pounding in my chest.324Please respect copyright.PENANAFRJUQgx6fA
324Please respect copyright.PENANAo4a3ZUAKOA
We turned a corner, and the hallway seemed to stretch on forever. The sound of the creature's footsteps grew louder, closer. I glanced over my shoulder and saw it—a hunched, humanoid figure with glowing eyes and a grotesque snarl. It was gaining on us.324Please respect copyright.PENANAilfz3TUZkv
324Please respect copyright.PENANAVez80bJG9V
"Run!" I shouted, pulling the others forward to get ahead of me, starting with Sasha, Masha, Maya, then Evelyn.324Please respect copyright.PENANAGx4McvLIB9
324Please respect copyright.PENANApmznPA47oa
But Evelyn froze, her eyes wide with terror as she stared at the creature. "No," she whispered, her voice barely audible. "It's… it's Grandpa."324Please respect copyright.PENANABh1CQq4uxu
324Please respect copyright.PENANAqhDrpfIrTy
Hendrick didn't hesitate. He stepped in front of Evelyn, his clothes hanger raised like a weapon. "Go!" he shouted, his voice firm. "I'll hold it off!"324Please respect copyright.PENANARf8Oud2XSd
324Please respect copyright.PENANAm6vj84cF31
"Hendrick, no!" Maya screamed, her voice breaking.324Please respect copyright.PENANAXq1yYM8ti1
324Please respect copyright.PENANAyzmJCh5iCV
"Just go!" Hendrick snapped, his eyes never leaving the creature. "I'll buy you time!"324Please respect copyright.PENANAGpvQh6QUSU
324Please respect copyright.PENANAGvpGKI0Lj7
The creature lunged, its claws slashing through the air. Hendrick swung the hanger, the metal clanging against the creature's arm. It roared, a sound that sent shivers down my spine, but Hendrick stood his ground, his face pale but determined.324Please respect copyright.PENANA7SHThb4azo
324Please respect copyright.PENANAEDPvZgXTeb
"Go!" he shouted again, his voice strained.324Please respect copyright.PENANAjzpMATVefv
324Please respect copyright.PENANALO9sKokuV7
I grabbed Maya's arm, pulling her away. "We have to go!" I said, my voice tight with urgency.324Please respect copyright.PENANAEseE6roaJN
324Please respect copyright.PENANALGWNUb63zC
Maya hesitated, her eyes filled with tears, but she nodded. We ran, a loud defiant scream from Hendrick coming from behind us. I didn't look back. I couldn't.324Please respect copyright.PENANA08v42YTQqn
324Please respect copyright.PENANAF9zz0a0bVd
...324Please respect copyright.PENANARJYDQpKM5E
324Please respect copyright.PENANAYJJaqnh5g3
We reached Evelyn's mom's room, the door slightly ajar. Evelyn pushed it open, her hands trembling. "This way," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.324Please respect copyright.PENANA08Q4gLa3Fa
324Please respect copyright.PENANAFdgPiLEzkW
The room was dark, the air heavy with the scent of dust and decay. The back door was visible at the far end, but before we could move, a low, guttural moan filled the room.324Please respect copyright.PENANAiNzqIPLt2w
324Please respect copyright.PENANACAWe0I9YdL
Another creature stepped out of the shadows, its glowing eyes fixed on us. It was smaller than the first, but no less terrifying.324Please respect copyright.PENANAxdexEql4tK
324Please respect copyright.PENANAko1BPPuWmh
Masha quickly grabbed a lamp from a nearby table and hurled it at the creature, the glass shattering against its chest. The creature seemed unaffected by Masha's move, roaring instead, its attention fully on Masha.324Please respect copyright.PENANALHB6I5EJuu
324Please respect copyright.PENANApnnZ6E6xdl
"What the hell are you guys doing!" Masha shouted, her voice sharp. "Run."324Please respect copyright.PENANAkstzeiPfUC
324Please respect copyright.PENANAWpvBc0IKfG
I hesitated, my heart pounding in my chest. "Masha..."324Please respect copyright.PENANALPqC8A64ZM
324Please respect copyright.PENANAbtSftraPgM
"Don't worry," she said, forcing a small smile. "I'm right behind you."324Please respect copyright.PENANA896g380Ysh
324Please respect copyright.PENANACm9Vpz5tWM
We started for the door, but the creature grabbed Masha.324Please respect copyright.PENANAq03VoOwSW8
324Please respect copyright.PENANAKibjstCw9O
"No!"324Please respect copyright.PENANA549mv6pqwl
324Please respect copyright.PENANA8cgZ2vPMW9
"Keep going!" she insisted, struggling against the creature's grip.324Please respect copyright.PENANAqekTCcxn5A
324Please respect copyright.PENANAEeJqq33Fgr
And so we did. I glanced over my shoulder just in time to see the creature lunging at her, its claws slashing through the air. Masha didn't scream. She just looked at us, her eyes filled with a quiet resolve, and a small smile on her face just before the creature's claws tears into her sternum, separating her body in two.324Please respect copyright.PENANAZMhQoNPOHF
324Please respect copyright.PENANAlWktIBvfJL
...324Please respect copyright.PENANAnQAh95Bebp
324Please respect copyright.PENANANLXwYGdo3w
We burst through the back door, the cool night air hitting us like a slap. The garden stretched out before us, the moonlight casting long, eerie shadows across the grass. But the relief was short-lived.324Please respect copyright.PENANAf9DqFztnkS
324Please respect copyright.PENANAqvXAZ43wUq
The sound of the creatures' moans echoed behind us, growing louder with each passing second. They were coming.324Please respect copyright.PENANAhpRYBXjCWZ
324Please respect copyright.PENANAMRceHFbeJ1
"We need to keep moving," I said, my voice tight with urgency.324Please respect copyright.PENANAzmCB0VnVAq
324Please respect copyright.PENANAoOwjnHnl1E
Maya nodded, her face pale but determined. Sasha was silent, her eyes filled with tears. Evelyn looked back at the mansion, her expression unreadable.324Please respect copyright.PENANA5w7MyR2RNR
324Please respect copyright.PENANABh0qqWDwv3
"Come on," I said, grabbing her arm. "We can't stop now."324Please respect copyright.PENANA9TwUiAULsO
324Please respect copyright.PENANACzIPbZbdPt
We ran, the sound of the creatures' footsteps echoing behind us. The garden seemed to stretch on forever, the shadows twisting and shifting as if alive. But we didn't stop. We couldn't.324Please respect copyright.PENANASXZwF2ZKhn
