I hear a sound
Footsteps running down the stairs
Nick's broken something. Can't have a moment of peace.
I open the door.
All quiet.
Then...
"Momma."
He sounds hurt. Panicked, I enter. Can't find the light.
Until-
Door closes behind me.
Musty basement
smell.
Something else.
Stench like a dead rat.
climbing the stairs...
...getting closer...
Cold wrinkled skin wraps around my neck
Gurgling laughter in the dark.
Upstairs, beyond the door...
I hear, "Momma, where are you?"
I wanna scream,"RUN!"
It's hands grip tighter. Neck
clicks.
All.
Goes.
Dark.
