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.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCG2kVx4t8G

"We need to move," I said, my voice low but firm. "Now."769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewnTPlx1Bs
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7S65AZyEuc
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."769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNdiaCNt5g
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvkNYkm5Np
"And if it's locked?" Maya asked, her voice trembling.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQaIOkVFYK
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHJucKuZGI
"It's not," Evelyn said, "Mom is always forgetful, so she leaves the key in the keyhole."769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuC8Rot2LS
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPifJgkv8pU
We exchanged uneasy glances. Evelyn seemed genuinely confused about what was going on in her own house. Hopefully, she was right about this.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96jFTmL0eQ
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUzur4ZwpJ
"Stay close," I said, stepping toward the door. "And don't stop for anything."769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygM0Zms6KE
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ou0yteHkh
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.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqWE2AzNXZ
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7JKwxHn3c
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.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1ouYfr6EV
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolsge2wscf
The moans grew louder, and the air grew colder. The creature was following us.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDjKJEz04J
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbuQfbHJbr
"Faster," I whispered, my heart pounding in my chest.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenEsWHmN5I
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCneBMGssh
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.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3IDrwvYEy
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEK4pfef5b
"Run!" I shouted, pulling the others forward to get ahead of me, starting with Sasha, Masha, Maya, then Evelyn.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNrqmk40e3
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgNi5ipRJb
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."769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBcJaiP38f
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtufNx3LUAf
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!"769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunvhyIwL8I
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVhj4yU2vs
"Hendrick, no!" Maya screamed, her voice breaking.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzM2YS3m86h
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVMP9HHzyE
"Just go!" Hendrick snapped, his eyes never leaving the creature. "I'll buy you time!"769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZgQXnDR4l
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT09gkNn89E
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.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDUyuXNYM1
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aknfEXSP9
"Go!" he shouted again, his voice strained.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJCCky6CIl
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnHWexG5Xd
I grabbed Maya's arm, pulling her away. "We have to go!" I said, my voice tight with urgency.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcDDNJeU8b
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvmXfqjgRG
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.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhBZqZ9pNl

769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hUzjNS3gW
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.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0Rkgz9pVj
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63SRgdgS3F
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.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRnBriMvuk
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrtRqGLFxR
Another creature stepped out of the shadows, its glowing eyes fixed on us. It was smaller than the first, but no less terrifying.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGElg2HOal
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunQTY6MGUU
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.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNOmWLWgi9
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6GARGpL7V
"What the hell are you guys doing!" Masha shouted, her voice sharp. "Run."769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIR6fHYPnlR
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxl7DlRwSS
I hesitated, my heart pounding in my chest. "Masha..."769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RbwKPp7A9
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYEnStS3uC
"Don't worry," she said, forcing a small smile. "I'm right behind you."769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjzwgT1Rvl
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYN4p65irPp
We started for the door, but the creature grabbed Masha.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikRszCDtae
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXp39lRwsO8
"No!"769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEVOFaYFWD
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVDO7VibEi
"Keep going!" she insisted, struggling against the creature's grip.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8u4TSSH4M
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkQ96PvIOd
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.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RLe301Ngb

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.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SmTFda25g
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOq2keKKC8G
The sound of the creatures' moans echoed behind us, growing louder with each passing second. They were coming.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF06pCQv3hr
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLrHhzV6Py
"We need to keep moving," I said, my voice tight with urgency.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSnHqcoTw5
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnROnRGraWZ
Maya nodded, her face pale but determined. Sasha was silent, her eyes filled with tears. Evelyn looked back at the mansion, her expression unreadable.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6vtvEbXF2
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlC1byck7tJ
"Come on," I said, grabbing her arm. "We can't stop now."769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28wB5oPuDw
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdCjBMaENR
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.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEO5pIh1tY
