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.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcItK5ueI0d

"We need to move," I said, my voice low but firm. "Now."804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FBAKaFbES
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRbx9hnaSr
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."804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Bel6v0T9W
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuaI0H9Nan
"And if it's locked?" Maya asked, her voice trembling.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FcBpKZn0I
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5JokCDu7R
"It's not," Evelyn said, "Mom is always forgetful, so she leaves the key in the keyhole."804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGMINuF3yP
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVi2gMhjqX4
We exchanged uneasy glances. Evelyn seemed genuinely confused about what was going on in her own house. Hopefully, she was right about this.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Qh98z0nNT
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavz0jQYGLC
"Stay close," I said, stepping toward the door. "And don't stop for anything."804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVdbgRYWTX
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgSrsU32x0
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.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21RKb9KP0u
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrbpP8fIEh
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.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVP44P9Ag0I
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTP271DByz8
The moans grew louder, and the air grew colder. The creature was following us.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9S6ha3SFJ
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0oVT5s8gO
"Faster," I whispered, my heart pounding in my chest.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvndWZ9PTLK
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzRVjf1kTp
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.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJ9hGOIgSz
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBUgtfXykb
"Run!" I shouted, pulling the others forward to get ahead of me, starting with Sasha, Masha, Maya, then Evelyn.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJW5uIWpRC
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoI2zNHaYZD
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."804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaPeqQEeQ9
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYqazDQM1h
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!"804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjs1DvwEI7
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyRxFgMVgX
"Hendrick, no!" Maya screamed, her voice breaking.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLj59Yeb5k
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYzWqhCU9K
"Just go!" Hendrick snapped, his eyes never leaving the creature. "I'll buy you time!"804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd75yxVIsN0
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SZLrW2ECB
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.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3GrHNKmwQ
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PBllS54uK
"Go!" he shouted again, his voice strained.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡED6tQ6yEkZ
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vmWwrPkqo
I grabbed Maya's arm, pulling her away. "We have to go!" I said, my voice tight with urgency.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PgkNIDK4y
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCq7qXGkeww
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.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzW9V35irT

804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GhNdbPnEG
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.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MgRAivmAB
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDzOd5sKPP
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.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaJwekGzk4
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlGlWn56OB
Another creature stepped out of the shadows, its glowing eyes fixed on us. It was smaller than the first, but no less terrifying.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAhE5776Sv
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UY3xIt4en
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.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2c41kbE626
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaxfHATq6r
"What the hell are you guys doing!" Masha shouted, her voice sharp. "Run."804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDgPZ7ZCWl
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtJxZQ1HXc
I hesitated, my heart pounding in my chest. "Masha..."804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1n5B1aC7C
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JoKfVjOS6
"Don't worry," she said, forcing a small smile. "I'm right behind you."804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tub0oJ2Fu
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeP17Hnt4Eb
We started for the door, but the creature grabbed Masha.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3NqIIDXen
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2W1NQlDAFj
"No!"804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1t3AcmCNTX
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVrI4zrwIE
"Keep going!" she insisted, struggling against the creature's grip.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5aKFmZiaX
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4N1aadLKy
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.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdkDESYw1L

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.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4Zd7SzNGa
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxAuPcEjAy
The sound of the creatures' moans echoed behind us, growing louder with each passing second. They were coming.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrUq8WiUvJ
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XA5aHM80u
"We need to keep moving," I said, my voice tight with urgency.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvJ0eIOK8F
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT18oBFRaVl
Maya nodded, her face pale but determined. Sasha was silent, her eyes filled with tears. Evelyn looked back at the mansion, her expression unreadable.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWbGXqqWR7
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLadUD8Mux4
"Come on," I said, grabbing her arm. "We can't stop now."804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRnoH4IMZr
804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbrErIuNEZ
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.804Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1dQQagKd4
